For decades, quartz devices, non-silicon technology, have kept systems in sync, but they struggle in harsher, more demanding environments. MEMS-based Precision Timing delivers greater accuracy, smaller size and resilience. Today, MEMS timing powers over 400 applications, including high-growth ones in AI datacenters, automated driving, industrial and humanoid robots, wearables and IoT.\nOur semiconductor MEMS programmable solutions offer a rich feature set that enables customers to differentiate their products with higher performance, smaller size, lower power, and better reliability. With more than 4 billion devices shipped, SiTime is changing the timing industry.

Depth and demonstrated results matter more than the number of languages listed.\nPractical experience integrating software with electronic hardware and systematically troubleshooting problems across that boundary.\nAbility to read and interpret electrical schematics and component datasheets.\nHands-on familiarity with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, or comparable electronic diagnostic tools.\nAbility to explain technical tradeoffs, work independently, and communicate clearly across engineering teams.\nWillingness to travel internationally for production support, approximately one month per year.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with instrument-control or data-acquisition systems used in laboratory or production environments.\nExperience with embedded controllers, FPGAs, device drivers, or hardware abstraction layers.\nExperience using serial communication protocols to connect embedded systems and peripherals.\nExperience with semiconductor test, automated test equipment, or manufacturing systems.\nExperience with continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), monitoring, and production software reliability.\nExperience designing electronic circuits or printed circuit boards.\nApplication Information\nPlease include a concise example of a system or feature you personally designed and delivered. Describe the problem, your specific contribution, a key design decision, how you tested it, and the result. We value clear, specific evidence of ownership over long lists of tools or technologies.\nDesired Characteristics & Attributes\nHigh ownership mindset: delivers results, unblocks self and others, and drives issues to closure\n“Builder” mentality: enjoys hands-on work, prototypes quickly, then hardens solutions into maintainable platforms\nStrong communication: clear status, crisp technical writing, and effective collaboration across global teams\nCompensation:\nAt SiTime, we believe great work deserves great rewards. We offer a comprehensive and highly competitive compensation package designed to attract top talent. The final offer is determined by factors such as location, experience, education, and training.\nIn addition to base salary, this role is eligible for a quarterly bonus tied to the achievement of innovation goals-reflecting our commitment to recognizing meaningful impact. We also offer equity grants, providing a meaningful opportunity to share in the company’s future growth and success.\nBenefits offered: 401k plan, health and wellness that includes medical, dental, vision, life, parental leave, legal services, and time off plans.\nSiTime is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We treat each person fairly and we do not tolerate discrimination or harassment against anyone on the basis of any protected characteristics, including race, color, religion, national or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, pregnancy, political affiliation, protected veteran status, protected genetic information, or marital status or other characteristics protected by law.
