Functional Testing Engineer

TetraMem is a fast-growing well-funded startup company working on the next generation ofcomputing platforms with unique ReRAM-based in-memory computing technologies. In this roleyou will be part of a world-class IC design team responsible for the development anddeployment of software solutions for a revolutionary computing system, which will reduce theenergy consumption of AI processing by two orders of magnitude over conventional digitalsolutions. This will completely disrupt the AI IoT landscape. It is based on our unique computingmemory device with multi-bit-level capacity per cell, which is nonvolatile with excellentretention and endurance.We offer a very competitive compensation, commensurate with experience, and a fullbenefits package including medical, professional PTO, 401k, and other perks.Responsibilities:Testing and silicon debug, including writing the necessary testing code, testing platform setup, and silicon screening and debuggingDesign, develop, and maintain embedded software, including drivers and application code, to support device functionality and performance benchmarksIdentify and document test scenarios and conditions for the functional testing of embedded software, ensuring comprehensive evaluation of both firmware and hardware interfacesContribute to testing methodology and setup including probe card, packaged chip, and PCB testingAnalysis of signal integrity, noise, power, and other design issuesRecord and document results, compare them with expected outcomes, and log defects in the defect tracking systemReproduce and isolate issues within embedded systems, providing detailed documentation for troubleshooting and resolutionWork closely with the hardware and design teams to verify embedded system features and to help debug issues at the firmware and driver levelsHelp with product demo setup and running different demo benchmarkshowroom projects as neededHardware development on circuit board, system and user interfaceRequirements:Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related fieldStrong background in embedded programming with proficiency in CC++ for driver and firmware developmentSolid programming skills in Python and familiarity with MATLAB for test automation and analysisUnderstanding of basic IO protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, GPIO) and experience withDMA and interrupt handling in embedded systemsWorking knowledge of microcontrollers (Arduino, Raspberry Pi) andor FPGA (Xilinx or Intel)Working knowledge of testing instruments such as oscilloscopes, digital multimeter, function generatorBasic knowledge of electronic circuits and semiconductor technology.Ability to work in a startup environment and to work both independently and as a team playerFamiliarity with test management and defect tracking tools (e.g., JIRA, Bugzilla)Proficiency in version control (Git, BitBucket)Experience in one or more of the following areas is considered a strong plus:Working knowledge of in-memory computing and non-volatile memoryExperience with RISC-V CPUs and related embedded architectures.Working knowledge of machine learning and neural networksWorking knowledge of data converter systems (DAC, ADC)Working knowledge of analog circuits (OpAmps, bandgap, temperature sensors)
