Texas Instruments is the largest analog semiconductor company in the world, and its power management teams have a long reputation for getting hard analog silicon right the first time. Texas Instruments power IC design engineer jobs cover DC/DC converters, LDO regulators, motor drivers, battery management ICs, and gate drivers.

The work sits at transistor level. You need analog circuit design, power transistor design, control-loop theory, and mixed-signal layout that survives real currents and real thermal budgets. Designers work in processes from standard CMOS to BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) and GaN, aimed at automotive, industrial, personal electronics, and communications infrastructure.

SemiDesignJobs lists TI power IC openings across the company's main design centers: Dallas and Plano in Texas, Santa Clara, Bangalore, and Tucson. You can filter by product family, process technology, and experience level.

One thing sets TI apart from most fabless analog shops. It runs its own 300mm analog wafer fabs in Texas, RFAB and LFAB, so a power IC designer has a direct line to the process engineers. That makes real process-design co-optimization possible instead of the usual arms-length foundry handoff. TI is one of several companies hiring for semiconductor design tracked here.

Analog pay holds up well against digital. Experienced designers reach six-figure base salaries within a few years, and total compensation at senior and staff levels commonly runs $250K to $400K with stock and bonus. Analog talent takes years to season, so the good people stay in demand. The semiconductor salary guide lays out the ranges by level.

FAQ

What technical skills are needed for Texas Instruments power IC design jobs?

TI power IC roles need strong analog circuit design, including switching power supply topologies, compensation network design, and transistor-level simulation in SPICE. Familiarity with BCD or GaN processes and a working grasp of EMI and thermal management round out a strong profile.

What application areas do TI power IC designers work in?

They span automotive (EV battery management, ADAS power), industrial (motor drives, factory automation), communications (5G base station power), and consumer electronics (USB-C fast charging, wearables). That breadth means designers see a wide range of real power management problems.

Does Texas Instruments offer internship programs for IC design engineers?

Yes. TI runs one of the most respected internship programs in the industry, with analog and mixed-signal IC design internships each summer. Many full-time TI power IC designers started as interns. SemiDesignJobs lists TI internship postings as they open.
