About Analog Devices (ADI)

Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) designs and manufactures semiconductor products and solutions. We enable our customers to interpret the world by intelligently bridging the physical and digital worlds with unmatched technologies that sense, measure, and connect.

Analog Devices is seeking a senior system design engineer for its Data Center & Energy (DCE) group Limerick, Ireland. Within DCE, we deliver high‑reliability power, connectivity, and analytics solutions for modern data centers and energy infrastructure.

The successful candidate will develop embedded software and algorithms that produce advanced telemetry in high-performance, high-reliability power supply applications. This is a hands‑on, lab‑intensive system engineering role requiring strong understanding of power supply behavior, and the skill to synthesize reliable predictions from multiple correlated signals. You will design experiments, build hardware and embedded environments, tune and validate heuristics, and work directly with stakeholders to present findings, challenges, and system‑level solutions.

This is a demanding multi-disciplinary position with unique growth potential. The group culture aims to foster a challenging, exciting, and supportive environment. The team members must be comfortable working on a wide variety of products and technologies in a fast-paced and agile environment. Analog Devices rewards performance, innovation, and collaboration.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Design and run lab experiments to identify key indicators of power system health and evaluate heuristic performance
• Develop embedded algorithms and heuristics to measure power supply behavior from multi‑signal measurements
• Tune and validate algorithms to eliminate false positives and negatives across diverse customer use cases
• Build and use FPGA‑ and microprocessor‑based prototypes to test and refine new monitoring methods
• Perform board-level bring‑up, measurement, and debug to support system‑level evaluations
• Collaborate with internal teams and present findings to stakeholders, including key customers

• Proficient with high-performance measurement equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, SMUs, electronic loads)
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently within defined objectives
• Good organization; written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Qualifications:

• MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent)
• Background in signal processing, anomaly detection, or model-based system diagnostics
• Familiarity with power telemetry data, PMBus, or board management systems
• Experience engaging directly with customers or external stakeholders
• Experience building automation tools for data capture, experiment orchestration, or algorithm evaluation
• Exposure to reliability engineering, environmental testing, or characterization of power systems
