Career Accelerator Program - Systems Engineer (LED Automotive Lighting)

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.

At TI, Systems Engineers focus deeply on understanding the technical needs, and future trends of an industry or end equipment, then create new products and innovative forward-looking product roadmaps to solve them. Systems Engineers are an integral part each phase of new product development at TI. In the early stages of product development, Systems Engineers interface with key stakeholders (customer decision-makers, application engineers, marketing, management, sales, IC design engineers, technology development) to negotiate specifications, perform trade-offs, understand the competitive landscape, and ultimately develop detailed technical definitions for new products. They then collaborate with the full IC development team (design, applications, test, product engineers) to deliver products to the market which are compelling, competitive, cost-conscious, manufacturable, and importantly, successful in growing TI's business.

In this system engineer role, responsibilities may include:

• Research and create new product definitions, including developing business case proposals, product strategies and taking products to market release 
• Analyze key end-equipment in automotive, industrial, consumer and computing spaces to identify future trends, identifying opportunities for improving performance and adding value to these systems 
• Assess and negotiate IC development tradeoffs with design team and customers 
• Be the technical expert, responsible for product ramp up for the customer 
• Silicon system evaluation (HW, SW if needed) and related documentation 
• Application support for newly introduced and existing products 
• Support and train central applications engineering and sales organizations on new/existing products 
• Relentlessly drive new design wins for new and existing products 
• Trouble-shoot customer application issues by lab testing, schematic analysis and other methods, as necessary 
• Bring quick resolution to customer problems by interfacing across different functional groups such as design, product, test, packaging, marketing and sales 
• Assist with generating the revenue plan for the organization 
• Definition of successful new products at TI, system evaluation and taking the products to market release 
• Create technical literature such as datasheets, application notes, user’s guides, EVMs, spice models, SCMs etc. 
• Revenue growth through adoption of new and existing products 
• Build relationships with customers/field teams by closely interacting with them to identify and solve system problems with TI silicon 
• Contribute to the short and long term product strategy and roadmap

As a Systems Engineer, you will also get exposure to other roles such as: Applications Engineering, Product Marketing & Digital Marketing through formal learning, projects and on-the-job development experiences that will help you broaden your knowledge and accelerate your growth and success at TI.
