At TE, you will unleash your potential working with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to create a safer, sustainable and more connected world. Job Overview At TE Connectivity, you will unleash your potential working with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to create a safer, more sustainable, and more connected world. Business Unit Overview Consumer, network, and data center applications are evolving at an exponential pace — and TE Connectivity's Data & Devices (D&D) business unit is at the heart of this continuously expanding connected world. We conceive, design, and manufacture with responsiveness and agility to meet today's most demanding requirements. Our customers are building the devices and infrastructure that are fundamentally redefining information technology, and our products are engineered to push market boundaries and meet the ever-changing needs of a faster, more data-driven world. Job Overview As a Principal Engineer in the Power Integrity Center of Excellence (PI COE), you will lead advanced power integrity (PI) research, modeling, and validation for next-generation high-speed interconnects and chassis deployed in AI data centers and high-performance computing (HPC) environments. You will independently drive PI studies and design platforming — spanning geometry analysis, simulation-driven optimization, and design validation. In this role, you will explore emerging PI methodologies, conduct in-depth literature reviews, formulate structured research plans, and develop innovative engineering solutions — including in technically ambiguous or undefined problem spaces. You will collaborate closely with mechanical, manufacturing, materials, and operations teams to champion the adoption of cutting-edge PI technologies. As a recognized subject matter expert, you will oversee the full PI engineering lifecycle — from initial analysis and modeling through design, simulation, prototype fabrication, and final validation. You will take on complex design challenges and leverage advanced simulation tools to consistently optimize designs for both performance and manufacturability. Roles and Responsibilities: Power Integrity Design & Simulation • Lead PI design, simulation, and validation for next-generation high-speed interconnects and chassis throughout the full product development cycle • Execute PI COE analysis workflows, including: o Performing power integrity simulations for high-speed interconnect product development, selecting appropriate simulation methodologies and setups tailored to each interface o Modeling connectors and chassis with careful consideration of manufacturing constraints and end-use application requirements o Identifying PI challenges, formulating research plans, developing new enabling technologies, and disseminating findings to the broader engineering community Advanced Testing & Methodology Development • Innovative testing methodologies to characterize key PI metrics (impedance, voltage ripple, droop, noise coupling) • Develop and apply AI and big data analytics for predictive PI modeling and performance optimization Design Optimization & Collaboration • Optimize material selection and electromagnetic design to improve noise isolation, signal integrity, and high-frequency response characteristics • Partner with New Product Development (NPD) teams and industry collaborators to shape PI strategies, contribute to technology roadmaps, and influence next-generation product design directions What Your Background Should Look Like Mandate Skills: • Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or a closely related field; equivalent practical experience considered • 10+ years of hands-on experience in a power integrity engineering role • Doctoral degree is a strong plus Technical Skills • Proficiency with PI analysis tools such as Keysight ADS, Ansys HFSS, or equivalent, along with 3D electromagnetic modeling tools and Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) test equipment • Solid understanding of electromagnetics, circuits and switching power supplies • Solid understanding of statistical analysis and AI/ML model training methodologies • Strong analytical capability to interpret simulation and laboratory data, identify root-cause issues, and develop actionable engineering solutions • Familiarity with materials science, manufacturing processes, and manufacturing inspection practices • Working knowledge of at least one programming language: MATLAB, Python, C++, VBA, or equivalent Communication & Collaboration • Excellent verbal, written, and presentation skills with the ability to convey complex technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences • Proven ability to operate effectively in a global work environment, collaborating across geographies and time zones; fluency in English (verbal and written) required • Highly self-motivated, intellectually curious, and able to work independently with minimal supervision Preferred Qualifications (Nice to Have) • Doctoral degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline • Background in Six Sigma methodologies or other advanced data analytics frameworks • Experience in engineering project leadership, particularly within design, development, and manufacturing teams • Direct customer engagement experience, including design support and technical consultation • Design exposure to data center compute equipment such as servers, switches, routers, storage systems, antenna systems, or RF front-end modules
Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
