About this role

Matx is hiring for a PCB Layout Engineer - AI Compute Hardware role (full-time). See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of PCB layout experience, including complex multi-layer boards (20+ layers) for server, AI compute, networking, or similar high-performance hardware
  • Strong proficiency in Cadence Allegro (or equivalent EDA tool), with deep expertise in high-speed design: differential pair routing, impedance control, length matching, reference planes, and via optimization
  • Experience with fine-pitch BGA placement/routing for AI ASICs, GPUs, or high-density packages, and hands-on work with high-speed interfaces (PCIe Gen5/6, CXL, DDR5, 112G/224G SerDes)
  • Strong understanding of PDN design (VRM placement, decoupling strategy, power planes, current return paths) and stack-up design (layer count, impedance control, material selection, e.g. Megtron 6/8/9, TU-953Q)
  • Familiarity with back-drilling, via-in-pad, and other advanced fabrication techniques, plus DFM/DFT requirements (test point coverage, copper balance, solder mask, assembly constraints)
  • Ability to interpret SI/PI simulation results and incorporate feedback into layout
  • Experience releasing fabrication packages (Gerbers, drill files, stackup specs) and working directly with PCB fabricators and JDM/ODM partners on high-speed, high-layer-count boards
  • Early Career - $160,000 - $275,000 + equity
