Digital Design Engineer

About the Career Accelerator Program

In your first year with Texas Instruments, you will participate in the Career Accelerator Program (CAP), which provides professional and technical training and resources to accelerate your ramp into TI and set you up for long-term career success. Within this program, we also offer function-specific technical training and on-the-job learning opportunities that will encourage you to solve problems through a variety of hands-on, meaningful experiences from your very first day on the job.

As part of your job, you will also get exposure to other roles such as Design Verification & Analog Design through formal learning, projects and on-the-job development experiences that will help you broaden your knowledge and accelerate your growth and success at TI.

Role Overview: Digital Design Engineer

As a Digital Design Engineer, you'll architect new TI products and make our customers' visions a reality. You'll define, design, model and verify digital circuits, which fully meet the performance, power, cost and schedule requirements. This role involves defining, designing, modeling, implementing and documenting world-first 64-bit DSP processors, MMUs, and heterogeneous multicore shared memory and cache systems, including coherent TI DSP and ARM processors. You'll have the opportunity to work in exciting areas such as CPU simulator development, 64-bit vector processor ISA architecture, development, and verification.

Key Responsibilities
