Responsibilities

Research and implement RL based algorithms for optimizing dynamic, multi-objective systems
Develop simulation and hardware in the loop environments to evaluate and validate RL performance
Benchmark RL results against conventional control and optimization techniques
Collaborate with TI’s product and research teams to translate concepts into real silicon and system innovations
Develop and apply system expertise in a given application area and design solutions using existing TI silicon devices (DSPs, MCUs, MPUs, analog components, etc.) as well as specify and develop new devices
Develop algorithms to calibrate, intelligently operate and analyze sensor data, and provide desired excitation signals/results for a given application
Define data and control data paths, AFE hardware requirements for sensor and actuation interfaces to digital signal processing units (DSPs, MCUs, MPUs, etc) and work with board designers to develop prototype systems
Develop complete system simulations to validate the viability of a given solution, analyze system performance requirements and perform system tradeoff analysis
Develop a working prototype together with team members using TI product portfolio: DSP/MCU/MPU device + AFE + sensor to demonstrate solutions
Work with team members to provide necessary collateral (simulations, software, schematics, test infrastructure, user guides, and performance results) to ensure a smooth transition from prototyping to product development
Generate relevant patents to protect TI position in the application space
Monitor competitive landscape for performance benchmarks relative to competition and find new applications/opportunities using existing TI products or define future products
