Summary:

Meta is seeking a Staff PCB Layout Engineer to drive the design and delivery of complex printed circuit boards for large-scale infrastructure hardware. In this role, you will define layout architecture and establish engineering standards for high-speed digital, power delivery, and signal integrity-critical designs that power Meta's data center and infrastructure platforms. You will partner with electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and manufacturing teams to shape board-level design strategy from concept through mass production, ensuring reliability and performance at scale.

Required Skills:

Hardware Engineer, PCB Layout Responsibilities:

1. Define PCB layout architecture and floorplanning strategies for complex, high-layer-count boards used in infrastructure and data center hardware

2. Establish and own PCB design rules, constraints, and layout guidelines for high-speed interfaces including PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, and SerDes

3. Lead signal integrity and power integrity analysis in collaboration with electrical engineering teams, driving layout decisions based on simulation results

4. Drive design-for-manufacturability reviews with contract manufacturers and PCB fabricators to ensure yield, reliability, and cost targets are met

5. Define and maintain organization-wide PCB layout standards, templates, and best practices adopted across infrastructure hardware programs

6. Collaborate with mechanical engineers to resolve board-level packaging constraints, thermal management requirements, and enclosure integration challenges

7. Provide technical guidance to other layout engineers across multiple concurrent infrastructure hardware programs

8. Partner with supply chain and component engineering teams to evaluate and qualify alternative components and footprints

9. Lead post-layout verification activities including design rule checks, electrical rule checks, and pre-production board bring-up support

10. Evaluate and introduce new EDA tooling, layout methodologies, and fabrication technologies to improve design quality and cycle time

Minimum Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications:

11. 8+ years of experience in PCB layout design for high-speed digital systems, including boards with DDR, PCIe, or high-speed SerDes interfaces

12. 8+ years of experience with industry-standard EDA layout tools such as Cadence Allegro, Mentor Xpedition, or equivalent

13. Experience defining PCB stack-up configurations, impedance control strategies, and design rule constraints for high-layer-count boards

14. Experience collaborating with signal integrity and power integrity teams to translate simulation results into layout implementation decisions

15. Experience leading PCB layout efforts across the full product development lifecycle from schematic capture through manufacturing release

Preferred Qualifications:

Preferred Qualifications:

16. Experience designing PCBs for data center infrastructure hardware including server, storage, or networking platforms

17. Experience with high-speed (100Gbps+) signal interfaces

18. Experience establishing layout centers of excellence or defining team-wide PCB design standards across multiple concurrent programs

19. Experience with complex designs using custom ASICs

Public Compensation:

$173,000/year to $245,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
