Applications Engineer - Multiphase Process Power (MPP)
Texas InstrumentsJob Title
Applications Engineer - Multiphase Process Power (MPP)
Role Summary
Provide application support for multiphase power solutions used in AI and data-center computing platforms (GPU, CPU, ASIC). Work with customers and internal teams from early product definition through characterization, ramp and post-ramp support.
Experience Level
Mid-level. The posting specifies a minimum of approximately 5 years of relevant experience in power electronics.
Responsibilities
Accountable for application engineering activities that ensure robust power delivery solutions and successful customer integrations.
- Develop and deliver quality solutions for GPU/CPU/ASIC platforms and data-center power applications.
- Perform schematic and PCB layout reviews and provide design feedback to customers.
- Recreate and debug customer issues on evaluation and customer boards; provide on-site support when required.
- Generate simulation models and perform PDN/system-level analysis based on customer requirements.
- Design EVMs and internal evaluation boards; develop test hardware and bench automation for characterization.
- Create user guides, test procedures, application notes, and reference designs for customer use.
- Participate in datasheet reviews and new-silicon testing from an application perspective, including destructive testing to ensure robustness.
- Support customers through schematic/layout review, system validation and production troubleshooting.
- Collaborate with systems engineers and other internal stakeholders to drive product readiness and customer adoption.
Requirements
