Love your job.\nPosition Summary\nThe Medium Voltage Buck Application Engineer is an outstanding opportunity to allow technically minded engineers to broaden their system engineering skills and application knowledge, while partnering closely with our local sales organization, focusing on Data Center end equipment supports customers in designing, validating, optimizing, troubleshooting quality and applications related issues on power solutions for high-performance server and infrastructure applications. This role requires strong technical depth in power conversion and system-level integration, along with a high level of on-site customer engagement to accelerate design cycles, resolve issues in real time, and strengthen customer adoption of TI solutions.\nKey Responsibilities\nProvide deep hands-on debug support for power architecture, converter performance, schematic implementation, component selection, PCB layout, thermal behavior, efficiency, transient, ripple and EMI\nSupport Data Center customers in the design, validation, and optimization of medium voltage buck regulator solutions used in server, storage, networking, and related end equipment\nDeliver heavy on-site customer support, including time in customer labs and design locations to troubleshoot issues, support bring-up, and accelerate design-in activity, customer board validation, and characterization on customer site and/or on TI lab. \nPartner directly with customers’ power, system, and hardware design teams to understand application requirements and translate them into effective TI-based solutions\nDevelop reference designs, lab data, application notes, testing guidance, and technical collateral relevant to Data Center power applications\nEvaluate customer boards and systems to identify power design issues, validate buck performance, and recommend improvements in schematic design, layout, component selection, thermal behavior, and overall application robustness\nAbility to influence customer design decisions and drive the system changes needed to optimize the performance of TI power devices.\nWork closely with design, systems, product marketing, quality, and field teams to resolve escalations and improve product positioning\nFeed customer system insights back into product definition, validation priorities, and future roadmap discussions\nSupport new product introductions by validating use cases and enabling internal and external teams on key application advantages\nDeliver technical presentations and design reviews for both customer and internal stakeholders\nSupport the sales team by providing the training course, technical guidance, joining customer discussions, helping position TI solutions against application requirements, and contributing to design-in success at key accounts\n Minimum requirements\nBachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field\nStrong experience in analog and power design, at least 5 years of experience\nStrong knowledge of DC/DC conversion, switching regulators, and buck converter applications\nExperience debugging hardware in lab environments and interpreting switching waveforms, efficiency data, thermal results, and stability behavior\nAbility to work directly with customer engineering teams on complex technical issues\nWillingness and ability to provide heavy on-site support at customer locations as business needs require\nStrong communication (English and Mandarin), collaboration, and problem-solving skillsPreferred qualifications:\n\nExperience supporting Data Center or enterprise power applications\nFamiliarity with server or infrastructure power architectures, intermediate bus conversion, point-of-load regulation, power distribution challenges, and PMBus/AVSBus protocols.\nStrong understanding of loop stability, transient performance, EMI/EMC, thermal optimization, Jitter, Ripple/Noise and PCB layout for switching power supplies\nExperience in semiconductor applications engineering, systems engineering, or customer-facing field support\nAbility to influence cross-functional teams using customer and application insight\nProficiency in simulation & software tools including SIMPLIS, Power SI, Flotherm, OrCAD, Allegro, Mathcad and FPGA tools","description_format":"text","description_chars":4210,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All
