Meet the Team

Silicon Labs Systems Team’s mission is to ensure our products have the right features and technologies to win in our target market segments. The team is responsible for generating technical requirements for our products by researching system requirements from the application level to the SoC feature level.

The Role

This role entails researching targeted applications (E.g., Predictive maintenance, Smart Assistants) or technologies (E.g., AI/ML, Audio Processing) and generates requirements to drive our IoT hardware and software roadmaps. Requirements are created via strong comprehension of various standards, tearing down end-applications, engaging our customer’s engineering teams, and performing feasibility studies of new system-level solutions or optimizations. These requirements are documented in our requirements management tool and used to develop our product roadmap.

In addition to requirements generation and documentation, this role will identify and prototype high-value innovations, generate internal collateral, train internal audiences, and publish technical whitepapers.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Collaborating with Product Marketing to guide our technical product roadmap
• Collaboration with engineers at our driver customers
• End-application teardown analysis
• Technical research on standards and applications
• Feasibility studies of potential system-level innovations
• Ensuring our products have the right features and technologies to win
• Using a requirements management tool to capture market and product requirements and track them through the development
• Helping to train internal audiences on new applications, features, and technologies
• Providing the deepest level of technical support to customer-facing teams
• Providing mentorship and guidance to less experienced team members
• Develop and improve systems team processes
  
  

Minimum Qualifications

• BSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent with 7+ years of industry experience
• A strong understanding of embedded microcontroller architectures and features
• A good understanding of embedded application design: requirement analysis, HW design, firmware and application development, bench evaluation, and debugging
• Experience in embedded coding, IoT application development and Proof of Concepts
• Experience developing machine learning models in frameworks such as Tensorflow, ONNX and Pytorch and optimizing the model for performance and memory usage
• Excellent written and oral communication skills in English. Must be comfortable explaining technical concepts to a wide range of audiences, including senior engineering leaders.
• Experience in use of modern project management tools (Confluence, Jira, Portfolio Manager, MS Project, etc.)
  
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in the semiconductor industry
• Basic understanding of hardware IP architecture, development and verification
• Experience working with ARM Vela compiler and Fixed Virtual Platform and deploying ML models on HW accelerators such as ARM Ethos U NPU
• Basic knowledge in cloudAI and MLOps development
• Experience working on audio and vision systems at the edge/embedded
• Experience with one or more RTOS – Free RTOS, uc/OS, Zephyr preferred
• Experience using lab equipment: oscilloscopes, multimeters, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, etc.
