- 5+ years of experience in power consumption measurement and validation of embedded electronic products.
- Experience with power validation on battery-powered consumer electronics, wearables, or small form factor devices.
- Strong expertise in power consumption measurement techniques and methodologies for various device use cases .
- Solid knowledge of electronics circuits, power management ICs, voltage regulators, and battery charging systems.
- Proficiency with electronics lab test and measurement equipment (oscilloscopes, power analyzers, source-measure units, data acquisition systems, current probes).
- Hands-on experience with hardware testing on small form factor PCBs and wearable devices.
- Good knowledge of microprocessors/controllers, SoCs, and digital communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, USB).
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with ability to interpret complex power data and identify root causes.
- Excellent communication skills with ability to present technical findings to diverse audiences.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with programming and automated test system design for hardware validations.
- Familiarity with AI/ML workload characterization and power profiling of neural network accelerators.
- Experience with wireless protocol power optimization (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular).
- Knowledge of battery management systems, fuel gauging, and battery life modeling.
- Experience with thermal management and correlation of power/thermal behavior.
- Familiarity with power management frameworks in embedded Linux or RTOS environments.
Experience with data visualization tools and statistical analysis for power data interpretation
