⚡ Lead the Charge — Validate the Future of Power

At Texas Instruments, we don't just design chips — we validate them to the highest standards so that the world's most demanding applications run flawlessly. If you're a validation expert who thrives on system-level challenges, hardware debugging, and cross-functional leadership, this role was built for you.

? About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Lead Validation Engineer – DC-DC Power Solutions to join our Mid-Vin Buck (MVB) team within TI's Power Products division. You will own the end-to-end validation lifecycle — from board design and test plan development to silicon bring-up and customer issue resolution — for cutting-edge mid-voltage regulators serving enterprise computing, industrial, AI, and autonomous driving markets.

This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role with a strong team leadership component, where your work directly ensures that TI's power solutions meet the most rigorous customer and market requirements.

? Key Responsibilities

- Design and develop validation boards (schematics & PCB layout) aligned with customer use-cases and EVMs — including modularization, mixed-signal challenge resolution, and hardware scalability
- Build and document comprehensive validation plans with deep understanding of both device behavior and system environment
- Define validation strategy across hardware, software, and instrumentation
- Develop and implement validation test cases using scripting languages (Python, TestStand, LabView, etc.)
- Silicon bring-up on bench — perform system-level and parametric testing with a "break-the-part" mentality




- Collaborate with Design and Firmware teams to support customer needs and implement custom firmware features; identify and resolve FW-level bugs and workarounds
- Drive device and setup debug independently through to closure
- Engage with application engineers on customer issues — provide device-level insight, fixes, and modifications
- Lead, mentor, and guide junior validation engineers within the team

?️ Minimum Requirements

- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
- 5+ years of relevant validation/hardware engineering experience (8+ preferred)

? Preferred Qualifications

- Proven experience in analog product validation engineering
- Strong hardware debugging skills — bench and system level
- Experience in simulating and designing DC-DC converters and/or inverters
- Knowledge of power semiconductor switches — MOSFET, IGBT, SiC MOSFET
- Expertise in Simplis, Matlab, Altium, PSPICE, LabView, Python
- Schematic and PCB layout design in Altium — signal grounding, routing, and optimization
- Strong time management with ability to deliver complex tasks on schedule
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
- A meticulous, high-quality mindset with deep system-level debug experience
- Ability to foster a creative, productive, and collaborative team environment
