Power Semiconductor Test System Design Engineer (m/f/d)

Job Description

We are searching for a Power semiconductor test system design engineer! As part of the research team you will be working on understanding new semiconductor failure modes or tests and create concepts for first‑of‑a‑kind reliability test systems and functions.

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

• Research semiconductor failure modes and create concepts to efficiently stimulate failure modes and monitor degradation parameters.
• Network with cooperative and academic research groups around the world to drive understanding and implementation of new test methods.
• Contribute to ECPE / AQG‑324 standardizations and participate in background discussions.
• Use your understanding to design first‑of‑a‑kind test systems and verify the intended failure mode on semiconductors.
• Represent Emerson at conferences, workshops, and standardization working groups.

Who You Are:

You are very savvy; you like to dive deep into unsolved challenges. You have a creative mindset and enjoy bouncing ambitious ideas back and forth with your colleagues. You know how to use your theoretical concepts and knowledge to design and test prototypes for practical verification. You like to have fun at work and equally impact the electronic transformation of the world by improving the reliability of power semiconductor powertrains.

For This Role, You Will Need:
