Summary（岗位介绍）

In Mixed Reality, people—not devices—are at the center of everything we do. Our tech moves beyond screens and pixels, creating a new reality aimed at bringing us closer together—whether that’s scientists “meeting” on the surface of a virtual Mars or some yet undreamt-of possibility. To get there, we’re incorporating groundbreaking technologies, from the revolutionary Holographic Processing Unit to computer vision, machine learning, human-computer interaction and more.

The Devices & Technology team within Mixed Reality is responsible for every physical device that Mixed Reality ships – from firmware to final hardware.

Our team has people from a wide variety of backgrounds, identities, previous work histories, life experiences, and we are eager to maintain and grow that diversity. Our varied backgrounds and unique experiences enable us to be better at building the best solutions for our customers and make for dynamic and joyful collaborations with colleagues!

If you are passionate about groundbreaking Mixed Reality technology across a variety of form factors, and want to work on a team dedicated to a culture of inclusion, growth mindset and collaboration, we need you!

We are looking for an enthusiastic and self-driven Principal Electrical Engineer with a focus on Systems Integration and Product Design to develop high-density electronics from prototype through high volume mass production.

Qualifications（岗位要求）

Qualifications

•Minimum BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or related field. MS strongly preferred.

•7+ years of experience designing, implementing, and shipping high volume products of medium to high complexity in consumer electronics or similar.

•Hands-on design and factory bring-up experience required in a broad-range of phone/tablet/laptop sub-systems ranging from: RF, analog, digital, audio, video, power, electromechanical, low power, charging, display, sensors, and SOCs of x86 or ARM architectures.

•Proficient in brainstorming product architectures by, for example, drawing in a candid manner the electrical block diagrams of a product including SOC, PMIC, Display, Charger, Storage, DDR Memory, WiFi/BT radios, USB Interfaces, etc

•Proficient in high-speed digital design, signal and power integrity (e.g. PCIe, USB 3.0/4.0, Thunderbolt, Display Port, MIPI)

•Strong understanding of EMI/RFI mitigation techniques and their impact in mobile and cellular products.
