About the job

This is a unique opportunity to be part of a team that drives testing of battery monitors and protectors power management devices going into automotive and industrial markets with significant growth potential. The ideal candidate would have a background that includes probe and final test development of complex mixed signal circuits.

Test engineering is a critical role in an IC development process while developing a mass-production solution. Test engineers spend a good amount of time in the lab and when they're not there, they are designing test hardware using software tools like cadence and building test programs on an ATE simulator, or troubleshooting – the programs or the device.

Responsibilities include:

Work with design team to understand design specifications
Generate test plan, create test and char program, design ATE hardware interface boards
Debug characterizing silicon on ATE, correlate results with bench data
Analyze silicon results, supporting failure analysis tasks
Perform statistical analysis of yield fallout, debug and fix yield issues; optimize test time
Work with production team to release products to volume production
•Test strategy definition and implementation for new battery products
ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) test hardware and software
Silicon qualification& characterization including qual hardware development
Comprehensive device debugging, design validation and failure analysis
Drive for robust and cost effective test solutions while being accountable for product quality

Minimum requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering
3+ years of relevant experience
ATE experience on Teradyne Eagle or equivalent analog ATE (iFlex, LTX, VLCT), although Eagle experience is preferred and is a differentiator
Characterization test program and hardware development experience, Production test program and hardware development experience
Strong technical knowledge of electronic devices and circuits, and Analog test techniques
Data analysis skills using Spotfire, dataPower or equivalent tool based on STDF
Experienced with various lab equipment such as scopes, power supplies, sourcemeters, loads etc.
Experience with product engineering activities such as yield improvement and test time reduction

About the Company

Texas Instruments

Makes analog and embedded chips in its own plants

Texas Instruments designs and makes analog and embedded processing chips, the basic parts inside cars, factory equipment, data centers, and consumer electronics, and it sells one of the broadest chip catalogs in the industry. In 1958, its engineer Jack Kilby built the first integrated circuit, the building block of modern electronics, and later won a Nobel Prize for it. Its analog chips regulate power and convert signals such as sound and heat into data, while its microcontrollers act as small built-in computers, and TI earns money selling both to device makers. It also makes the graphing calculators many students use in math class. Texas Instruments was founded in 1930 and is based in Dallas, Texas.
