Systems Engineer (SEM)
Texas Instruments · Shanghai
- Change the world. Love your job.
- As a Systems Engineer (SEM), your primary role is to engage with customers and provide solutions that cut across device, board and software recommendations for a given application, usually in the form of a reference design. Systems/applications engineers will mostly work closely with our sales, marketing, and applications teams to demonstrate how our products can be used most efficiently in each system. This role may work across product portfolios and businesses or within a business to provide more depth in a given sector or market.
Core Responsibility
- Hardware Development – Capture schematics, perform PCB layout, and execute board‑level validation (signal integrity, EMC, power integrity) for medical‑grade reference designs.
- Signal‑Chain Architecture – Design end‑to‑end analog/mixed‑signal signal chains (amplifiers, filters, ADC/DAC, isolation) that meet stringent medical performance specs (low noise, high linearity, compliance).
- Embedded & Edge‑AI Integration – Implement SOC/MCU firmware, driver stacks, and lightweight AI inference engines for edge AI on wearable devices (e.g., health‑monitoring, biosignal classification). Optimize power, memory, and latency to meet wearable form‑factor constraints.
- Wireless Connectivity – Engineer Bluetooth, BLE, Wi‑Fi, Thread, or other low‑power wireless links for telemetry, remote monitoring, and IoT‑enabled health devices.
- Technical Documentation – Author application notes, white papers, reference‑design guides, and regulatory compliance hand‑books that clearly communicate design intent, test methodology, performance data, and AI algorithm integration guidance.
- Customer & Stakeholder Collaboration – Work directly with OEM design engineers, field teams, and product managers to assess system requirements, troubleshoot issues (lab testing, schematic analysis), and deliver rapid resolutions.
- Business Enablement – Identify market trends and emerging medical standards, propose new reference‑design opportunities (including edge‑AI wearables), and support sales with technical training, presentations, and solution briefings.
- Cross‑Functional Leadership – Coordinate with analog, RF, digital, firmware, AI, reliability, and regulatory groups to ensure reference designs are compliant, and ready for production hand‑off.
- Independent Execution – Manage entire design cycles from concept through validation with minimal supervision, prioritizing tasks, and driving results autonomously when required.
