Job description

NI is now part of Emerson. NI is Emerson's Test and Measurement (T&M) Business Unit.

In this Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

• Research and propose alternative parts with effective solutions in consideration of avoiding major software & product calibration, hardware topology changes to replace EOL parts in NI products.
• Implement and simulate designs through CAD and synthesis tools. i.e. Mentor Graphics.
• Verify and validate designs of hardware re-designs. Debug any issues that may arise.
• Have good knowledge in failure analysis to root cause failures during early VnV and MFG builds.
• Integrate DFM inputs from MFG to improve product yield & quality.
• Proactive in doing mock-up design as POC (Proof of Concept) to strengthen re-design proposal to get final approval from domain leaders.
• RCA know how. Able to come up fish bone diagram to list possible root cause and narrow down to actual root cause.
• Properly document failure / project progress and share with stake holders by sharing short and long term design solutions.
• Mentor junior engineers and share your expertise/technical knowledge.
• Lead the team to develop product and design documentation.
• Create debug tool and training material for MFG during product release.

Who You Are:

You demonstrate strong initiative in challenging situations and excel at recognizing and acting on opportunities. You streamline tasks and create efficient workflows. Your communication is adaptable, aligning content and style to suit various parties, and you adjust quickly to changing circumstances.

For This Role, You Will Need:

• Minimum 2 years work experience in analog/digital design with expertise in board level design or VHDL/System Verilog
• B.Eng/M.Eng/BS/MS in electrical engineering or computer engineering.
• Experience defining routing constraints for high-speed interfaces.
• Experience in circuit design with CPU/SoC/Micro-controller.
• Proficient with standard hardware lab equipment including scopes, logic analyzers, signal generators and power supplies.
• Test automation expertise with scripting/programming language
• Strong work ethic and drive to succeed.

Preferred Qualifications that Set You Apart:

• Demonstrated ability to: apply diagnostic insight to identify technical problems, propose viable options, and apply technical solutions; quickly learn applicable technology, systems, and products;
• Take ownership of products and be responsible for product success
• Takes initiative, a self-starter; persistently drives tasks and projects to successful completion; takes ownership of goals and schedules; manage time well;
• Work effectively in a team development environment; grasp and engage in fast-paced technical conversations
