This Systems Engineering Intern role is within Kilby Labs, the central R&D organization of Texas Instruments (TI). The lab is chartered to develop novel and innovative technologies and strategies for new business opportunities, drive next generation, differentiated technologies for existing businesses and recruit top technical talent for TI.

In this Systems Engineering intern role, you will have the chance to innovate on system architectures and algorithms for sensing applications in industrial market, energy infrastructure, and robotics. You will be developing new system concepts and approaches including embedded AI models, demonstrating the concepts through system level simulations and hardware prototyping and engaging with the product group to drive new differentiated product development. We are looking for a dynamic, self-motivated, hard-working, results-oriented individual to contribute in an extremely talented team environment.

Responsibilities

System Knowledge: Develop and apply system expertise in a given application area and design solutions using existing TI silicon devices (DSPs, MCUs, MPUs, analog components, etc.) as well as specify and develop new devices

Signal Processing: Develop algorithms to calibrate, intelligently operate and analyze sensor data, and provide desired excitation signals/results for a given application

Hardware Design: Define data and control data paths, AFE hardware requirements for sensor and actuation interfaces to digital signal processing units (DSPs, MCUs, MPUs, etc) and work with board designers to develop prototype systems

System Simulations: Develop complete system simulations to validate the viability of a given solution, analyze system performance requirements and perform system tradeoff analysis

Prototyping: Develop a working prototype together with team members using TI product portfolio: DSP/MCU/MPU device + AFE + sensor to demonstrate solutions

Product Development: Work with team members to provide necessary collateral (simulations, software, schematics, test infrastructure, user guides, and performance results) to ensure a smooth transition from prototyping to product development

Intellectual Property: Generate relevant patents to protect TI position in the application space

Emerging Technologies: Monitor competitive landscape for performance benchmarks relative to competition and find new applications/opportunities using existing TI products or define future products
