Test Development Engineer

Founded in 2003, InvenSense Inc., a TDK Group Company, is the world's leading provider of MEMS sensor platforms. InvenSense's vision of Sensing Everything targets the consumer electronics and industrial markets with integrated Motion and Sound solutions. Our solutions combine MEMS (micro electrical mechanical systems) sensors, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, compasses, and microphones with proprietary algorithms and firmware that intelligently process, synthesize, and calibrate the output of sensors, maximizing performance and accuracy. InvenSense's motion tracking, audio and location platforms, and services can be found in many of the world's largest and most iconic brands including smartphones, tablets, wearables, drones, gaming devices, internet of things, automotive products, and remote controls for smart TVs.

InvenSense is headquartered in San Jose, CA, and has offices in Boston, China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, France, Canada, Slovakia, and Italy. We're looking for top-notch innovators to join our global team. If you are interested in being part of our journey and helping us grow to become the leading provider of SoC platform solutions, we want to hear from you.

The Test Development Engineer position in the Test Engineering group is unlike any other software and test position at other companies. You will be joining a highly talented, motivated, dynamic, and startup-oriented team with exceptional opportunities that require multidisciplinary skills. We bring positive change and empower individuals and teams around us through our coding practice, software infrastructure, and set of features built around our users and core values. As a Test Development Engineer, you will be at the heart of TDK InvenSense's engineering process, leading MEMS Sensor development and support and building custom software that empowers engineering teams to develop and deliver high-quality world-leading sensor products quickly. We are focused on solving the toughest, most rewarding, and value-driven challenges of developing software at scale without undermining stability, quality, velocity, or code health.

We ensure TDK InvenSense's success by collaborating with engineering teams (ASIC, MEMS, etc.) and developing scalable tools and infrastructure that help engineers develop, test, debug and release software quickly. We impact on the organization by increasing the pace of product development and ensuring our products are thoroughly tested and deliver the highest quality. We thrive to be champions for code health, testability, maintainability, and best practices for development and testing.

In this role, you'll build tooling around development frameworks, write code for Sensor Test and Product Development, bring up new hardware platforms, get engaged in the backend test infrastructure, performance measurement, and optimization. You will work on complex projects with deep software and technology stacks and will be in a position to make an impact on the product and team.
