Responsibilities- Develop software to control, calibrate and apply corrections to complex optical and electrical instrument hardware, working with a multi-functional, global team to invent and develop new time-domain measurement instruments:
- Quickly learn the hardware architecture of sampling oscilloscopes, taking ownership design and implementation of software to correctly control hardware to make desired measurement data acquisitions. Provide customer-valued performance, robustness, and flexibility.
- Working closely with our team of hardware design engineers, rapidly invent and implement software to provide desired functions and performance. This will include software interface to optical and electrical frontends, signal sampling sub-systems, clock recovery/phase lock loop design at frequencies from 20 GHz to 200GHz with integration to analog control/sensing/adjustment circuitry.
- Work with a strong team of R&D development HW and SW engineers to integrate individual designs into whole new instruments. In a team of strong mentors, grow into a technical leader, contributing to developing others.
- Document and present measurement IP and test methodologies to R&D team, and to multi-functional partners
- Work with new product introduction teams and partner technology teams to bring integrated hardware/software from concept to product shipment. Experience the full product development lifecycle and prove your designs are manufacturable as well as high-performance.
- Support customers. Present technical information of value to customers, occasionally visiting customer sites to present products and help customers with integration
- In a dynamically changing technology environment, continuous learning is expected and supported throughout your career.
QualificationsThis position requires significant electrical engineering skills to understand the hardware and significant software development skills to design and implement control/calibration/correction features. Must have ability to express ideas and work collaboratively with a multi-functional team of engineers, and within a shared multi-developer codebase.
- Open to BS or MS candidates, most likely with Electrical Engineering major or equivalent field of study with significant software development experience. Successful candidates are likely to have multiple internships or 2-4 years of related experience to draw upon.
- One or more examples of design and implementation of software controlling hardware. Ability to discuss performance, and implementation time tradeoffs.
- Evidence of end-to-end design and implementation of one or more software designs controlling/calibrating/correcting circuits in the 20GHz to 200GHz range. Demonstrates knowledge of good software development practices to deliver quality and robustness with appropriate test strategy to prove performance. Evidence of excellent troubleshooting and issue resolution skills. Familiarity with team software design/implementation processes such as backlog management, sprint planning, stream and branch management, and incremental QA.
- Ability to quickly learn to correctly set up optical and electrical measuring instruments to make the desired acquisition of a sampled signal waveform. Enjoys hands-on exploration to find correct instrument setups to evaluate your software/hardware integration.
- Enjoy working with a diverse multi-functional team to deliver prototype designs into volume manufacturing on a global scale
- Demonstration of excellent communication and teamwork skills, enjoying working with a diverse and global team
- Strong problem-solving and quantitative data analysis skills
- Ability to quickly learn new technologies
- Excellent time management, and ability to work independently in supportive team of available mentors
- Significant pluses:
- Experience with software interfacing with hardware involving optical components, such as photodiodes, optical-to-electrical converters and knowledge of optical communication signal transmission
- Specific examples of hands-on experience with using electronics test equipment to set up signal sampling, test scenarios and verify measurement integrity
- Fluency in C++, C#, Visual Studio IDE. Ability to apply good judgment to use of AI code gen tools.
- Knowledge of signal processing algorithms.
- Evidence of experience developing new IP and translating invention into end-user valued capabilities. Ability to represent technical expertise to end-use customers is highly desired
