But we couldn't do it without our extraordinary workforce - and that's where you come in. Join our team and help us continue to make Cirrus Logic an exceptional place to grow your career! Join our Validation and Design teams as an Engineering Technician, where you will be an integral part of our lab environment. This role is perfect for an organized and curious problem-solver looking to build a foundation in silicon and system validation. You will receive hands-on training and mentorship from our experienced engineers while directly contributing to the assembly, testing, and debugging of cutting-edge electronic platforms. We are committed to providing the necessary training to develop your skills in troubleshooting, advanced electrical test techniques, and automated test scripting. Responsibilities Advanced Board Work: Perform surface-mount soldering related to the assembly, repair, and rework of printed circuit boards (PCBs) populated with surface mount components (including fine pitch components like CSP, BGA, QFN, 0402, 0201, 01005). System Debug: Use electronic schematics and layout diagrams to assemble, debug, and fix problems at the board or system level under the mentorship of senior engineers. Test Execution: Implement the proper execution of defined test experiments and run simple test sequences to verify board functionality. Customization: Design and build various custom cable assemblies and perform mechanical modifications to hardware platforms. Lab Operations: Implement and document lab procedures, ensure proper setup of test stations, and manage inventory efficiently. Troubleshooting Support: Help debug test setup issues (Hardware/Software) to ensure test sequences complete with minimal issues. Required Skills and Qualifications Education: Associate's degree in Electronics Engineering Technology or a closely related field. (Relevant hands-on experience in lieu of a degree will be considered.) Lab Equipment Basics: Experience and comfort working with standard lab equipment, including oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, etc. Technical Literacy: Ability to read, understand, and interpret circuit board schematics. Discipline & Organization: Strong organization, documentation, and communication skills for recording results and managing lab assets. Preferred Skills and Qualifications Scripting Knowledge: Basic knowledge in a text-based programming language such as C, or a common scripting language such as Python, PERL, or Tcl. Advanced Debugging: Hands-on lab test/debug experience gained during school projects or prior employment, particularly pre- and/or post-silicon validation. Specialized Tools: Familiarity with schematics capture tools (such as PADS) or other specialized lab equipment (e.g., logic analyzers, in-circuit emulators). We will provide training and support for candidates who demonstrate a strong willingness to learn these skills.
