Texas Instruments (TI) is out front and ready for the next big challenge. Our innovations are at the core of nearly every electronics product in use today. And it doesnt stop there. Were developing breakthrough technology to power the worlds future innovations as well. TI is committed to building a better future from the responsible manufacturing of our semiconductors to caring for our employees to giving back inside our communities. Put your talent to work with us.

Our business has very high growth in TI and is in a segment where the market is fast growing. Were searching for applications engineer who have the passion and excitement to grow innovative take an active role in product definition execute the characterization until ramp and provide post ramp application support to customers.

This role is responsible for application support for RF clock synthesizers buffers and BAW oscillators. Key responsibility is to resolve customer queries and support design-in activities for released products which includes:

• Support customers to design with TIs RF clock synthesizers buffers and Oscillators for their applications by providing technical support trainings as required explaining and interpreting device datasheets reviewing their design and help them get started with TI solution (EVM chipset and Tools).
• Schematic and Layout Review of customer application.
• Trouble-shooting customer hardware firmware and system related issues. Debugging of customer problems by re-creating issues in our evaluation boards and/or customer boards.
• On-site support for customer board as required.
• Design hardware board (Evaluation board reference designs related to clocking products) and internal evaluation boards to support correlation and evaluation activities of new products.
• Create user guides test procedures and proper release of EVM boards for customer consumption
• Participate in datasheet review with team to ensure completeness of datasheet being developed by the Systems Engineer.
• Perform Bench Characterization for RF clocking devices including bench automation hardware design and develop test techniques.
• Participate in new silicon testing from an application perspective to ensure robustness of the product.
• Work with systems engineer to provide support to early design in activities for new products.
• Create custom reference designs targeting relevant applications to be used as customer implementation ideas.
• Write application notes that explain different use cases implementation and/or flexibility of our products.
• Lead and Support whole product launch activities. Work closely with marketing program management engineering systems and validation teams for execution and launch of new products/existing product enhancements.
• Work with systems and marketing to enable proof of concept demonstrations.
• Understanding customer development timelines and enabling timely support from TI.
