Texas Instruments
Career Accelerator Program - Memory IP Validation Engineer
Texas Instruments, Dallas, Texas, United States, 75215
Change the world. Love your job.:
In your first year with TI, you will participate in the Career Accelerator Program (CAP), which provides professional and technical training and resources to accelerate your ramp into TI, and set you up for long-term career success. Within this program, we also offer function-specific technical training and on-the-job learning opportunities that will encourage you to solve problems through a variety of hands‑on, meaningful experiences from your very first day on the job. The TMG Development program is a 12‑month program for new college graduates in the TMG organization.
About This Opportunity Join our Memory IP Validation team within the Advanced Technology Development organization. You'll characterize cutting‑edge memory circuits (SRAM, Flash, EEPROM, eFuse) on advanced technology nodes—working on IP that powers next‑generation smartphones, AI accelerators, data centers, and automotive systems.
This role combines hands‑on silicon characterization, test automation, and cross‑functional collaboration with worldwide teams. You'll work with 300mm development wafers, analyze performance data, and help qualify innovative memory IP designs for customer integration. If you're passionate about bringing circuits from design to reality and solving complex technical challenges, this is an excellent place to start your career.
Why This Role Matters As part of the Technology Development team, you'll enable next‑generation memory technologies through comprehensive characterization. Your silicon feedback shapes design decisions and qualifies innovative IP for cutting‑edge products—bridging the gap between circuit design and silicon reality on tomorrow's technologies.
What You'll Gain
Advanced characterization techniques and statistical analysis methodologies
Root cause investigation skills during technology development
Experience qualifying IP from concept through production readiness
Cross‑functional collaboration with designers, process engineers, and business units
Career paths in validation, product engineering, design, or advanced technology development
Structured onboarding, dedicated mentorship, and hands‑on training
Who will you work with? Circuit designers, process development engineers, failure analysis teams, and business units.
What You'll Be Doing Silicon Characterization on ATE
Characterize memory circuits on 300mm wafers using automated probe stations and parametric test equipment across advanced technology nodes
Perform AC/DC electrical measurements to validate timing, power, functionality and reliability on new designs
Perform digital logic testing through Scan/ATPG patterns across temperature, voltage and frequency
Test analog circuits (sense amplifiers, charge pumps, voltage references) across voltage, temperature, and process variations
Develop Python, C/C++, or LabVIEW scripts to automate test equipment, data collection, and analysis
Operate lab equipment: oscilloscopes, curve tracers, parametric analyzers, SMUs, and precision instruments
Data Analysis & Design Optimization
Analyze characterization data using statistical tools (JMP, Spotfire, Python) to identify design sensitivities and performance trends
Correlate silicon results with circuit simulations to provide actionable design feedback
Establish performance benchmarks and test limits for new IP designs
Generate technical reports and present findings to development teams
Cross‑Functional Collaboration & Problem Solving
Work with business units to qualify new memory IP for next‑generation SoC integration
Partner with circuit designers and process development teams to root cause performance issues and optimize designs
Collaborate with failure analysis teams to investigate and resolve technical challenges
Support IP qualification for reliability requirements (retention, endurance, cycling)
Provide technical documentation to enable customer design integration
Help transition qualified IP from development to production readiness
