High-Speed I/O Protocol Verification Lead

About The Company Anthriq is a signal processing infrastructure company. We build the full acquisition and compute stack for human-aware technology — from custom analog front-end IP that captures biosignals at the source, to signal-first compute systems built for time-critical, deterministic workloads. Our infrastructure is designed around one principle: the signal should never be the bottleneck. General-purpose processors — CPUs, GPUs, DSPs — were not built for this class of problems. They approximate determinism. We built it in by architecture. Anthriq Silicon is our ground-up effort to build a new compute category. About The Role We're hiring a protocol verification authority to own sign-off on high-speed I/O interfaces for a next-gen SoC — PCIe Gen5, 32G+ SerDes, LPDDR5X, and Ethernet 25G-KR. This is an audit/authority role: you'll validate compliance logs, link-training, and PHY behavior delivered by our silicon partner before it clears sign-off. Key Responsibilities - Audit and sign off PCIe Gen5 LTSSM logs, PIPE-interface timing, route/test cases. - Validate LPDDR5X PHY initialization, training algorithms, PHY-to-controller handshakes. - Audit 32G+ SerDes equalization, framing FSMs, lane-reversal/polarity, and JESD204B/C deterministic-latency alignment. - Audit Ethernet 25G-KR MAC/PCS. - Configure, run, and debug commercial VIP for high-speed protocols. Must-have Skills - 8+ years in high-speed I/O protocol verification (PCIe Gen4/Gen5, LPDDR4/5X, 28G/32G/56G SerDes). - JESD204B/C converter-interface verification with deterministic latency. - Ethernet MAC/PCS (25G-KR / backplane). - Commercial VIP integration and debug; strong protocol waveform analysis. Nice-to-have - TSMC 7nm/5nm PHY integration tuning. - Performance benchmarking under I/O congestion. - Target EDA tools: Cadence VIPs (PCIe, LPDDR, SerDes, JESD, Ethernet), Xcelium, Indago Skills: serdes,signal,o,c,infrastructure,protocol,ethernet,phy,integration,pcie
