What You'll Get to Do:

• Work with TDI's team of engineers to receive a mixture of long-term multi-phase projects and smaller less-technical tasks, e.g., preparing presentations; This balanced workload will allow you to have ownership of large projects that will keep you engaged and busy while assisting other engineers during creation of new designs

• Along with project presentations, you will have weekly meetings to review your workload, discuss progress and plan future projects and tasks to best satisfy needs of TeraDiode and your own learning goals

• Take part in all stages of design, simulation, prototype, documentation, and manufacturing electronics; Help project manager and other electrical engineers to achieve their goals and complete projects timely

• Engage in Analog and Digital Electronics design, simulation, and prototyping. This includes draw schematics, design PCB layouts, generate Gerber and NC Drill files, and documentation

• Program Micro-Controllers and Digital Signal Processors (DSP) to provide accurate and timely execution of control algorithms and reliable communication with end user

• Help manufacturing engineers to prepare Work Instructions (WI) and facilitate releasing NPI/ECM projects to production. Additionally, the CO-OP will monitor production closely to report projectmanager of potential assembly/manufacturing issues; Such feedback helps revising the designs to best fit TeraDiode's manufacturing capabilities

• Review design requirements for various safety classes and draft TeraDiode's design guideline forreliable and high-performance electronics

• Review Panasonic's electronics design rules and preferred vendors. Such effort is essential forcompatibility with Panasonic's manufacturing capabilities to provide a seamless flow from design to manufacturing between TeraDiode and Panasonic Smart Factory Solutions-PSFS division
