Senior R&D Hardware Design Engineer - High-Speed Digital

About the role

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is seeking a Senior R&D Hardware Design Engineer to join its high-speed digital circuit design team, working on advanced networking systems where signal integrity, power integrity and system-level performance matter. The role is onsite, with the expectation of working primarily from an HPE office in Singapore. It suits an experienced hardware engineer who wants to lead technically, mentor others and see their work deployed at global scale.

Key responsibilities

• Lead and own complex hardware designs, including component selection, schematic capture, board-level architecture, bring-up, debug and validation.
• Drive high-speed digital design decisions, covering signal integrity, power distribution and performance trade-offs at the system level.
• Partner with cross-functional and multi-site teams including layout, validation, manufacturing and firmware to deliver production-ready designs.
• Influence design feasibility, margins and reliability through upfront analysis and hands-on validation.
• Perform deep root-cause analysis and empirical testing on new designs, setting technical direction and best practices.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to continuous improvement of design methodologies and engineering standards.

Required profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronic Engineering or a closely related discipline.
• 6 to 10 years of experience in complex systems and hardware design, including integrated circuits and high-performance platforms such as servers, mobile devices or similar systems.
• Demonstrated technical leadership, including mentoring and influencing engineering teams.
• Fluency in English and the local language, with strong written and verbal communication skills.

Required skills

• Deep expertise in digital and analog circuit design, with sound architecture and design trade-offs.
• Solid knowledge of high-speed design, including signal integrity and power distribution.
• Hands-on experience measuring, testing and characterizing high-speed digital signals.
• Board-level design using Cadence CAD tools such as OrCAD and Allegro.
• Preferred: autonomous decision-making, strong collaboration across functions, and excellent interpersonal skills.

What we offer
