Overview
The Mixed Reality(Hololens) Electrical Engineering Team (located in Mountain View, CA) is responsible for taking ideas off the drawing board and turning them into finished products. We design from the ground up boards, flexes, batteries, and cables, and combine them into a product. We then support design validation, and new product integration through manufacturing ramp. If you are excited to work on the future of computing, please apply.
We are looking for a Principal Electrical Engineer - Signal Integrity/Power Integrity to perform design analysis in cutting edge products. The candidate will have a deep understanding of electromagnetics, SI/PI, and strong electrical engineering fundamentals between system architecture, mechanical and software.
Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
