Systems Engineering Intern (MEMS)
Texas Instruments
We can't predict what the future holds, but we know Texas Instruments will have a part in shaping it.
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 systems engineering intern role, you’ll have the chance to:
Develop, model, simulate, and optimize innovative MEMS transducers across multiple domains such as electric, acoustic, magnetic, etc.
Drive the innovative concepts towards successful commercialization by working with product lines.
Work with process experts to understand and optimize MEMS manufacturing process
Create and maintain compact behavioral models for use in system simulations
Assess, define, and negotiate MEMS device specifications based on system requirements
Perform optimization based on the defined MEMS specifications.
Gather user requirements, translate them to functional specifications, and implement solutions and enhancement projects
