I will be working in NVIDIA Corporation as a Signal Integrity Engineer since October 2, 2006.

What's signal integrity? What does signal integrity engineer do?

"signal integrity engineer"= "microwave plumber" who can ensure the fast buses work properly.
"signal integrity engineer" makes computers run fast and correctly by getting power to the chips cleanly and signals quickly between
the chips .
"signal integrity engineer" works in the part of the design process for electronics that enables your computer to work next to your lamp without making the lamp flicker.
"signal integrity engineer" defines the limits within which the digital designers can safely pretend things are actually digital.
A "signal integrity engineer" is someone who knows that every digital signal is analog, and that every analog signal obeys Maxwell's equations.

 

In August 2006 I finished my PhD in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department of Duke University.

My thoroughly PhD work was supervised by Dr.Steven A Cummer in the Sensing and Waves Group. It is mainly about using electromagnetic waves from lightning discharges to remotely sense the upper boundary of the earth-ionosphere waveguide. Here is my doctoral dissertation: broadband VLF measurements of large and small scale ionospheric D region variations.
