About the role

Hardware Engineer specializing in DC-DC power conversion to design and validate MTIA module power solutions, leading validation, characterization, and testing from prototype to production while collaborating with HW Platform, ASIC, and external vendors.

Responsibilities

  • Lead validation and characterization of DC-DC power conversion systems for high-power ASIC modules, including efficiency, transient response, thermal performance, and reliability testing
  • Contribute to design of DC-DC power conversion solutions including topology selection, component selection, regulation schemes, and control loop design
  • Develop and execute comprehensive power validation test plans covering hardware bring-up, functional verification, stress testing, and production qualification
  • Participate in PDN design activities including power plane design, stack-up definition, and placement analysis for power delivery networks
  • Execute hardware bring-up, debug, and troubleshooting of DC-DC power circuits using oscilloscopes, power analyzers, electronic loads, and other lab instrumentation
  • Perform power integrity analysis using circuit modeling and simulation, closing the loop between simulation predictions and lab validation results
  • Define test infrastructure and automation strategies for power delivery validation across multiple hardware generations
  • Drive root cause analysis and failure investigation for power-related issues found during validation, qualification, or production
  • Collaborate with ASIC and platform teams on power delivery specification requirements, balancing efficiency, thermal constraints, and space limitations
  • Partner with external vendors to drive power solution design and qualify solutions through development milestones
  • Develop and document validation methodologies, test procedures, and best practices for DC-DC power systems

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of experience in power electronics validation or test engineering with a focus on DC-DC conversion for high-power digital systems
  • Experience leading hardware bring-up, validation, and troubleshooting of DC-DC power circuits through production
  • Experience with power validation instrumentation including oscilloscopes, power analyzers, electronic loads, and thermal measurement equipment
  • Experience with power integrity analysis including correlation between simulation and lab measurements
  • Experience developing and executing validation test plans for power delivery systems covering efficiency, transient response, and reliability
