About the job
At TI, Test Engineers leverage strong technical knowledge working hands-on to bring differentiated power solutions to our customers globally. Test Engineers also partner closely with Design, Test, Systems and Application engineers to ensure our power solutions are both meeting customer and market requirements and are cost-wise optimized. The MPP product line is working on complex multiphase buck controllers and the world’s breakthrough technology to develop the high-power density power stages.
About the role and team
Work with the design team to understand design specifications and system challenges
Generate test plan, create test and char program, design ATE hardware interface boards
Debug characterizing silicon on ATE, and 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 the production team to release products to volume production
Test strategy definition and implementation for multiphase controller and power stage devices
Silicon qualification, including the qual program development
Comprehensive device debugging, design validation, and failure analysis
Drive for robust and cost-effective test solutions while being accountable for product quality
Work with the design and Firmware team to support customer needs, implement custom features in FW. Close collaboration with FW and validation teams to understand the device issues and bugs and find the FW level workaround for the fix.
Engaging with customers with application engineers, to help them understand the device better, help to fix the issues, and provide modifications if any tweaks are needed. This is done in collaboration with Application engineers.
