Change the world. Love your job.
As a Product Engineer in the Analog Circuit Analysis Lab (ACA) in ATD, you'll support new technology development, product ramp, and technology transfers by analyzing and determining the root cause of electrical failures and recommending corrective actions to fix the issues you found. You will interact with a varied disciplines such as analog circuit analysis and design, test and characterization, device physics and semiconductor technology.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
• Test setups to electrically verify failures.
• Using global isolation tools such as OBIRCH and EMMI.
• Understand the failure analysis flow – how to get to root cause most efficiently.
• Electrical characterization of semiconductor devices – MOS and bipolar
• Effectively communicating your results via a final report. You need to be able to defend your recommendations to designers, process experts, and management.
• Be able to probe internal nets on an integrated circuit.
• Understand and apply various pieces of equipment used in testing and characterizing semiconductors.
You'll be involved with many aspects of new technology development at TI and have a chance to make a big impact by finding root cause of failures and recommending corrective actions. The skill set you develop will be broad: interacting with design, test, and semiconductor process experts regularly and learning how to “follow the data” and get from A -> B most efficiently to rapidly find root cause.
Minimum requirements:
- Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics or related Engineering field
- 5 year's of experience in Analog IC Design or Failure Analysis
- Solid understanding of analog and digital circuits their operation and analysis. Solid understanding of process technologies.
Preferred qualifications:
- Extensive hands on experience working with different lab equipment for taking data and / or performing device debug or failure analysis. For example use of the curve tracers; return loss analyzers, oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers.
- Experience of bench testing of op-amps, ADCs, mixed –signal circuits and digital circuits
- Experience with bench validation and characterization PCBs
- Experience with integrated circuit and device failure analysis
- Programming skills for automation of bench characterization equipment (VBA, Python, GPIB)
- Knowledge and experience characterization of MOS and Bipolar components.
- Ability to work in a team setup comprising design and fab personnel.
- Strong time management skills that enable on-time project delivery.
- Demonstrated ability to build strong, influential relationships
- Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and rapidly changing environment
- Ability to take the initiative and drive for results.
- Strong problem solving, verbal and written communications skills.

Texas Instruments Compensation & Benefits Highlights
The following summarizes recurring compensation and benefits themes identified from responses generated by popular LLMs to common candidate questions about Texas Instruments and has not been reviewed or approved by Texas Instruments.
-
Strong & Reliable Incentives — Profit sharing and annual bonuses are portrayed as a meaningful, formula-linked upside that can materially lift total earnings in strong years. An employee stock purchase plan with a discount further reinforces recurring, wealth-building incentives.
-
Retirement Support — A 401(k) match is described as a stable core benefit, with some references to additional legacy employer contributions and even pension-like elements for certain cohorts. This framing positions long-term savings support as a notable part of the overall rewards package.
-
Healthcare Strength — Medical coverage is depicted as broadly comprehensive, with preventive care and access to HSA/FSA features cited as value-adds. Company-seeded HSA contributions are repeatedly characterized as an important offset to the plan design for those enrolled.
