Are you reading this blog on a computer, tablet, or phone? Do you know how many tests that electronic device had to go through before you could use it? Today, our special guest is in charge of designing and testing the chips that go into these devices to make sure they work correctly before they are sold!
Teresa McLaurin is a Fellow and Senior Director of Design for Test (DFT) Architecture at Arm. She is an expert in DFT Engineering and even co-wrote a book about her work. Teresa works for Arm, the leading technology provider of processor IP networking software. Its technology powers over 90% of mobile phones! Teresa’s team works on the chips that go into devices, like cell phones, computers, printers, and even cars!
The world needs more strong, wise, innovative women like Teresa in STEAM fields. After building a computer from a kit and seeing that it worked, Teresa discovered her interest in engineering and pursued that passion. If you are interested in learning more about engineering or leadership like Teresa’s roles, then this interview is for you! Team GLAM and Teresa hope that this interview inspires you to explore STEAM fields to find your passion!
