Product, Test & Validation Engineer

Engineer - Product, Test & Validation

Change the world. Love your job.

Texas Instruments is seeking an Engineer - Product, Test & Validation to join our Analog Power Products organization in Dallas. Depending on your background and the needs of the team, you will be placed into one of three functions: product engineering, test engineering, or validation engineering.

All three functions are critical to delivering high-quality analog power ICs to market. In whichever function you join, you will work closely with IC design, applications, manufacturing, and quality teams across the full product development lifecycle.

Responsibilities include: Product Engineering

• Serve as primary point of contact for all manufacturing and operational aspects of assigned analog power IC product lines
• Analyze production data to identify yield and quality trends, and drive corrective actions with wafer fabrication, assembly, and test sites
• Lead product qualification and reliability testing to support new product introductions and technology transfers
• Resolve customer quality issues and field returns through structured failure analysis and root cause investigation
• Identify and execute cost reduction and yield improvement opportunities
• Maintain and improve product documentation including test limits, qualification plans, and product change notifications

Test Engineering

• Develop and debug automated test programs for analog power ICs on industry-standard ATE platforms
• Design, build, and qualify load boards and test hardware to support device test requirements
• Optimize test time and cost while maintaining quality and coverage requirements
• Collaborate with design and validation engineers to translate device specifications into test algorithms
• Support transfer of test programs and hardware to manufacturing test sites
• Analyze test data to identify escapes, outliers, and opportunities for quality improvement

Validation Engineering

• Develop and execute validation plans for analog power ICs across operating conditions including temperature, voltage, and load variations
• Design and build bench test setups including hardware fixtures and software automation
• Characterize device performance and identify deviations from specification
• Identify, document, and drive resolution of silicon issues through structured debugging and root cause analysis
• Collaborate with IC design engineers to validate functional correctness and resolve performance gaps
• Develop scripts and tools to automate data collection, measurement, and analysis
• Support product release by executing reliability and qualification testing per industry standards
