Key Responsibilities:

Model and optimize system performance

• Design control systems and algorithms for high-mix semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain logistics
• Utilize discrete event simulation platforms
• Apply statistical modeling, optimization, and machine learning to improve system stability

Architect systems engineering solutions

• Translate requirements into architecture diagrams, configuration logic, and data models
• Ensure systems-of-systems interoperability through verification planning
• Create clear, reusable visual designs for cross-functional teams

Develop robust control software

• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines with automated testing and model-based verification
• Debug complex hardware-software interactions using instrumentation, data logging, and root-cause analysis
• Automate recurring engineering tasks to improve efficiency

Texas Instruments will not sponsor job applicants for visas or work authorization for this position.
