Salary: $148,000 - $200,000 per year

We’re the leader in Precision Timing technology, powering over 400 applications across AI datacenters, automated driving, industrial and humanoid robotics, wearables, and IoT. Our MEMS-based programmable timing solutions have shipped in the billions, replacing legacy quartz devices with smaller, more accurate, and more resilient silicon alternatives. We’re growing fast and looking for people who want to solve some of the toughest problems in electronics timing.

This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role where you’ll build and lead a team of validation engineers shaping the next generation of MEMS timing products. You’ll work cross-functionally across MEMS design, circuit design, and production, with real influence over silicon evaluation and system architecture. Compensation is competitive with base salary up to $203,940, plus quarterly innovation bonuses, equity, and a strong benefits package.

If you want ownership over hard technical problems and a direct hand in product outcomes, this is that kind of role.

The Principal Product Validation Engineer will lead and contribute to productization of our revolutionary timing devices. In this highly visible role, we are looking for passionate, self-starters who can work cross-functionally to ensure system-level performance of our products and help solve the world’s toughest timing problems. It is not necessary to meet all job requirements to be a qualified candidate for the position.

• Grow and lead a team of engineers responsible for validation, characterization, and release-to-production of MEMS-based timing products
• Interface with cross-functionally teams, vendors, and manage projects across different sites
• Plan and execute device verification and characterization
• Work with MEMS and circuit design teams to evaluate new silicon and recommend design improvements for enhanced performance
• Design, develop, and validate PCB test platforms and firmware to enable automated data acquisition and analysis
• Develop and transfer algorithms to final test and production environments
• Perform engineering failure analysis to root cause product issues
• Innovate and prototype system architectures and new technologies for next-generation products

• MS or PhD in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering. Exceptional candidates with other backgrounds will be considered
• 10+ years of experience in the productization of semiconductor sensor-based devices
• Experience leading engineering project teams and creating and executing verification and characterization plans
• Strong, fundamental knowledge of mixed signal circuits
• Hands-on experience with electronics lab instrumentation. Prior experience with metrology systems for evaluating timing parameters is preferred but not required
• Excellent programming skills and prior experience with MATLAB and/or Python
• Strong statistical analysis skills

• High level of self-motivation and drive to make an impact
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
• Clear and concise written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work in a highly collaborative, fast-paced team environment
