About the job
This is a challenging position for an experienced high voltage packaging engineer. As a technical leader, you will be defining, designing, developing, qualifying and releasing packaging solutions for a range of high-voltage products. These products will be operating over a voltage of 400v to 1200v, using Si LDMOS, GaN, and SiC. Role will include development of single die, MCM, and module solutions using internal TI factories as well as external subcontractors. We are looking for individuals that have in-depth knowledge of these technologies, industry offerings, and reliability of such packages. You will be working with teams that are spread out around the world to create new and innovative solutions.
Responsibilities may include:
Develop new package requirements and maintaining quality of existing packages
Define package requirements for product groups and customer requirements in high voltage power applications
Develop package thermal solutions for application
Perform thermal analysis of package in application
Perform package characterizations including cost effectiveness studies.
Review package development BLR data
Prepare and/or updates specifications for piece parts of integrated circuits or semiconductor assemblies
Prepare application notes to utilize package and optimize thermal performance
Qualifications
Basic Qualifications:
BS in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, Physics, Material Science, or related field.
5 years experience in high voltage semiconductor packaging, MCM/SIP/power module design, material or assembly flow development for high-voltage (>400V) integrated circuits. Knowledge of high-power discrete components (such as SiC, GaN, MOSFETs and IGBTs) is a plus.
Understanding of the end applications related to high voltage electronic devices (500v to 1200v)

Texas Instruments Incorporated designs, manufactures, and sells semiconductors to electronics designers and manufacturers worldwide. It operates in two segments, Analog and Embedded Processing. The Analog segment offers power products to manage power requirements in various levels using battery management solutions, portable components, power supply controls, point-of-load products, switches and interfaces, integrated protection devices, high-voltage products, and mobile lighting and display products. This segment also provides signal chain products that sense, condition, and measure signals to allow information to be transferred or converted for further processing and control for use in amplifier, data converter, interface product, motor drive, clock, and sensing product end-markets; and integrated analog and standard products, which are primarily for sale into personal electronics, industrial, and automotive markets.
The Embedded Processing segment offers connected microcontrollers, such as microcontrollers, microcontrollers with integrated wireless capabilities, and stand-alone wireless connectivity solutions that are used in electronic equipment to sense, connect, log, and transfer data; digital signal processors for mathematical computations; and applications processors for specific computing activity. This segment offers products for use in various markets, principally industrial and automotive.
The company also provides DLP products, primarily for use in projectors to create high-definition images; calculators; and application-specific integrated circuits. Texas Instruments Incorporated markets and sells its semiconductor products through direct sales and distributors, as well as online. The company was founded in 1930 and is headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
