Software Engineer – Automation

At Taalas we believe that fundamental progress is achieved by those who are willing to understand and assail a problem end-to-end, without regard for commonly accepted abstractions and boundaries.

We are building a team of hands-on technologists who dislike overspecialization and seek to excel in both depth and breadth.

A large part of bringing a new chip to market are the numerous test and characterization activities that happen once parts are received from the fab. The magnitude of these activities requires them to be fully automated. In this position the successful candidate will build Taalas’ lab automation infrastructure for controlling laboratory instruments, orchestrating regression testing, streamlining data collection and analysis, and generating comprehensive reports.

Job Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain Python/C++ infrastructure to automate test setup, data collection, analysis, and reporting
• Develop software interfaces and protocols to automate measurements and data acquisition with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes and DAQs
• Implement robust data management solutions to efficiently handle large volumes of test data generated during characterization and validation activities, including data storage, retrieval, processing, and visualization
• Ensure reliability, accuracy, and scalability of the automation tools by implementing thorough testing strategies
• Continuously identify opportunities to optimize and streamline full system testing and validation workflows through automation and process standardization

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or higher degree in Computer Science, or Electrical/Computer engineering
• Strong knowledge of Python and C++
• Experience with using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, DAQs and basic lab equipment
• Experience with chip bring-up and characterization
• Familiarity with monitoring and visualization tools such as Prometheus and Grafana
• Strong problem-solving, communication and collaboration skills
