About the job

The Custom product business of Texas Instruments is looking for talented Switching Converter design leads. If you are looking to join an ingenious, vigorous & ambitious team that consistently delivers groundbreaking technologies into the custom mobile electronics world, here is an opportunity for you!

In this role you will be choosing switching converter architectures for Buck, Boost, Buck-Boost, Inverting Buck-boost and SIMO converters, innovating to meet the best efficiency, transient-performance and IDDQ at high operational frequencies, to enable our customers to get the best battery life for hand-held electronic devices. Suitable candidates with proven experience in leading switching converter designs, track -record in pushing performance boundaries by way of innovation, an in-depth silicon debug experience can apply.

The Custom product line is delivering industry leading custom IC system solutions including display and touch power products, charger power products, camera PMICs, power switches / muxes, LED drivers, High speed communication interfaces. Our solutions integrate signal chain and power components, that enable TI customers to differentiate their next-gen products in the personal electronics domain. This is a great opportunity to be part of the best custom semiconductor team in the world.

Basic Qualifications :

• The ideal candidate will be have proven expertise in the field of analog and mixed signal design with experience in switching DCDC regulators design e.g. multi-phase buck, boost ,buck-boost, inverting buck-boost converters
• The ideal candidate will bring passion and excitement to participate in Tier1 custom IC development. The candidate should have demonstrated experience in power converter design innovation and best practices across their organization, and should excel at teaching junior team members.
• The candidate will work independently with little supervision to design complex power converter analog circuits with multiple, cross-functional engineers; operate with complete block ownership to drive all aspects of the block design tasks to successful completion in the committed schedule; manage design workloads and delegate tasks for project success; deliver accurate, aggressive, but attainable design schedules to the product team and customers; manage the design phase to efficiently utilize scarce project resources; anticipate and highlight any / all risks in the design schedule during the planning phase of the project and implement plans to mitigate these risks; drive high level, dynamic interaction with customers / sales in technical meetings.
• Must have solid understanding of power stage design and layout including gate drivers, control loops, fault systems and power Fets. Competency in the analysis, transistor level design and system implementation of analog functions for power converters including amplifiers, voltage / current references, comparators, LDO’s, charge pumps, DACs etc. Must be capable of hand (i.e. pen and paper) analysis as well as have fluent knowledge and familiarity with simulation tools (i.e. SPICE, Spectre, Maestro, Midas, Raaga, VPS).

In this role, responsibilities may include :

Minimum requirements :

Preferred Qualifications :

Organizational Skills : Ability to work well with internal cross functional teams. Must successfully and appropriately interface with external customers. Project management, time management, multi-tasking, problem solving and communication (written and oral) are important skills in this role.
