Entry Level Rf Drive Test Engineer Jobs in Dallas, TX

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

TI does not make recruiting or hiring decisions based on citizenship, immigration status or national origin. However, if TI determines that information access or export control restrictions based upon applicable laws and regulations would prohibit you from working in this position without first obtaining an export license, TI expressly reserves the right not to seek such a license for you and either offer you a different position that does not require an export license or decline to move forward with your employment.Minimum requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
• 1+ years of experience in product engineering, test engineering, validation engineering, hardware validation, or a related technical role

Preferred qualifications: All functions

• Basic understanding of schematics, layouts, and digital components
• Knowledge of analog circuitry (examples include: op-amps, DC/DC converters, LDOs, data converters)
• Ability to establish strong relationships with key stakeholders, both internally and externally
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to work in teams and collaborate effectively with people in different functions
• Ability to take initiative and drive for results

Product Engineering

• Experience with product qualification, reliability testing, and failure analysis
• Proficiency in data analysis using statistical tools such as JMP, Python, or Excel to identify yield and quality trends
• Familiarity with JEDEC qualification standards, product change notification (PCN) processes, and semiconductor manufacturing operations
• Knowledge of wafer fabrication processes, assembly, and automated test equipment

Test Engineering

• Experience developing automated test programs for analog or mixed-signal ICs on ATE platforms such as Teradyne or Advantest
• Knowledge of load board and test fixture design and qualification
• Familiarity with statistical process control methods and test data analysis for identifying escapes and coverage gaps
• Programming proficiency in C/C++, Python, or ATE-specific languages such as FLEX or IG-XL

Validation Engineering

• Hands-on experience with lab equipment including oscilloscopes, source-measure units, signal generators, and thermal chambers
• Experience with PCB design, hardware bring-up, and bench characterization across voltage, temperature, and load conditions
• Familiarity with analog power topologies such as buck, boost, LDO, or battery management circuits
• Programming skills for test automation (Python, C/C++, MATLAB, or LabVIEW)
