Field Application Engineer

We are seeking a Field Application Engineer with a strong hardware engineering background to join our North America team. In this role you will serve as the primary technical bridge between Nuvoton and its customers — providing expert hardware support across our MCU and MPU product portfolio, helping customers achieve successful design integration from early evaluation through production ramp. The ideal candidate combines deep hands‑on experience in embedded hardware and system‑level debugging with strong communication skills and the ability to influence technical decisions across multiple stakeholders — including OEM engineers, distribution partners, and executive sponsors.

• Customer Technical Support:
  Serve as the primary technical contact for strategic customers during pre‑sales and post‑sales engagements, including product evaluation, schematic design review, PCB layout guidance, hardware bring‑up, and production ramp support.
• Hardware Debug & Validation:
  Lead board‑level debugging, root cause analysis, and system integration activities for customer platforms, utilizing oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and power analyzers.
• Solution Recommendation:
  Analyze customer system requirements and recommend suitable Nuvoton MCU, MPU, power management, analog IC, and peripheral solutions based on application needs.
• Cross‑Functional
  
  Collaboration:
  
  Partner with sales teams, distribution partners, and internal engineering groups to troubleshoot customer hardware issues, conduct product demonstrations, deliver technical training, and lead design reviews to secure design wins.
• Technical Enablement:
  Deliver technical presentations, product demonstrations, design reviews, and customer workshops to support design wins and successful deployment at OEM and ODM accounts.
• Collateral Development:
  Develop and maintain technical collateral including application notes, reference designs, hardware bring‑up guides, troubleshooting documentation, and schematic review checklists.
• Field Intelligence:
  Capture field feedback on product performance, hardware feature gaps, competitive positioning, and market trends — communicating actionable insights to product and engineering teams.
• Lab Support:
  Support lab validation, hardware performance benchmarking, and failure analysis for customer platform issues and internal evaluation boards.

• Education:
  
  Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering;
• Experience:
  
  Minimum 2 years of hands‑on embedded hardware development or field applications engineering experience supporting customer designs.
• Hardware Design:
  Minimum 3 years of hardware design experience including schematic capture, PCB layout (Altium, Cadence, or equivalent), and bench‑level debugging.
• MCU Ecosystem Familiarity:
  Prior experience with major MCU platforms and ecosystems is highly desirable. Experience with leading MCU vendors is a plus.
• Analog & Power Proficiency:
  Strong foundation in analog and digital ICs: op‑amps, ADC/DAC, RTCs, bus switches, and DC‑DC power conversion circuits.
• Peripheral Interfaces:
  Solid command of hardware interfaces and subsystems: GPIO, UART, SPI, I2C, I3C, CAN, USB, Ethernet, and board‑level power management.
• Debug Tools:
  Experience debugging with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and power analyzers.
• Customer Communication:
  Proven ability to manage technical customer relationships, communicate clearly, and lead cross‑functional problem solving under schedule pressure.
• Travel:
  Willingness to travel as needed to customer sites, distribution partner locations, trade events, and internal engineering teams across North America.

• ARM Platform Knowledge:
