Internship - C&P IC Test and Validation

This opening is part of Infineon’s Internship program. This internship provides an excellent chance to gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge motor drive technologies and contribute to the testing and validation of semiconductor devices used in advanced motor control systems.

In your new role you will:
 

• Test and Validate: Support the testing and validation of control and protection IC products used in motor drive applications.
• Develop Test Plans: Create detailed test plans to evaluate device performance under various conditions and ensure compliance with design specifications.
• Set Up Experiments: Configure lab equipment, set up experiments, and run tests to collect meaningful data for analysis.
• Analyze Results: Process and analyze test data to assess product performance and identify potential areas of improvement.
• Troubleshoot Issues: Identify, debug, and resolve issues encountered during testing and validation processes.
• Collaborate: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including design, product, and application engineers, to ensure smooth project execution.
• Document Procedures and Results: Maintain comprehensive documentation of experimental setups, procedures, and outcomes to support internal knowledge sharing and reporting.
• Report Findings: Prepare technical reports and presentations to communicate results and recommendations to internal teams and stakeholders.

You are best equipped for this task if you are/have:
 

• Academic Background: Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field.
• Knowledge of Motor Drives: Basic understanding of motor control systems, including control algorithms, protection features, and motor drive architectures.
• Lab Experience: Prior experience working with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, and power analyzers.
• Problem-Solving Skills: Analytical mindset to interpret data, troubleshoot issues, and propose solutions.
• Software Skills: Familiarity with programming and scripting languages (e.g., Python, MATLAB) for data processing and automation.
• Communication Skills: Strong verbal and written communication for documenting and presenting technical findings.
• Team-Oriented: Ability to work effectively in a collaborative, cross-functional team environment.
• Duration: Available to work 6 months onsite in El Segundo, CA
