Responsibilities

• Partner with planners, product architects, and customers to define product requirements and transform them into robust software architecture.
• Architect and design M8070B system software and measurement solutions for BERT platforms.
• Own the end‑to‑end software stack, from hardware integration and measurement algorithms to GUI (WPF) and advanced visualization.
• Ensure solutions deliver measurement accuracy, reliability, and performance.
• Establish coding standards, best practices, and reusable frameworks.
• Collaborate across global R&D teams (Europe, US, Asia) for development and integration.
• Mentor advanced engineers and provide technical leadership.
• Continuously evaluate new technologies and architectures for innovation.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer/Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• 7+ years of R&D experience in software product development.
• Strong expertise in C#, C++, and WPF for professional applications.
• Experience in measurement software and application development.
• Proven experience in defining and architecting products based on customer and planner input.
• Awareness of measurement science, data analysis, and automation.
• Advanced understanding of software design principles, OOP, and architecture patterns.
• Strong grasp of multithreading, performance tuning, and real‑time data handling.
• Excellent problem‑solving, communication, and cross‑functional collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Direct experience with BERTs, oscilloscopes or other T&M instruments.
• Familiarity with power electronics, analog/digital circuits, or signal processing.
• Experience in Agile/Scrum environments, Git, Jira, Confluence.
• Test‑driven development (TDD) experience.
• Leverage AI/ML techniques to enhance measurement analysis, anomaly detection, and predictive features.
• Awareness on Secured Software Development Methodologies, Practices and Framework (NIST).
• Solid knowledge of electrical measurements and waveform analysis.
• Hands‑on experience in DevOps and build activities.
• Prior experience leading technical teams and mentoring developers.
