Our ~15,000 employees create world‑class solutions in communications, 5G, automotive, energy, quantum, aerospace, defense, and semiconductor markets for customers in over 100 countries.

Our culture embraces a bold vision of where technology can take us and a passion for tackling challenging problems with industry‑first solutions. We believe that when people feel a sense of belonging, they can be more creative, innovative, and thrive at all points in their careers.

Responsibilities

As master engineer in analog circuit design within the product development team, you are responsible for architecting, designing and leading the whole technical development in architecting new measurement platform, analog and mixed signal hardware design for Keysight test & measurement instrument.

Design activities involve power supplies, analog circuit signal conditioning, mixed signal, data conversion (ADC, DAC), sensor & IO interface, PLLs and analog filters design. Excellent skillset in troubleshooting power supplies, analog circuit design and high‑speed digital are a must for the job. You are required to have good knowledge in control system stability design, good understanding in components characteristics and behavior.

Advanced experience in using circuit simulation tools such as HSpice, PSpice, LTSpice and/or Saber.

You are required to work closely with mechanical, software (application and embedded) engineers within the development team to define and optimize the hardware system design to maximize the performance and quality of product with minimum cost. Typical activities for this job are:

• Design and develop the overall analog and mixed system hardware architecture of an instrument.
• Well versed in latest technology trends and development, able to involve in product platform roadmap and future design direction.
• Strong knowledge in understanding customer applications and provide optimum instrument hardware design.
• Good multi‑disciplines (HW, FPGA, SW, FW, ME) development knowledge and responsible to design and lead the development team in overall instrument system design and development.
• Working with project management and marketing team from product concept definition, technical investigation, final product development work.
• Leading the design team in system hardware and software integration.
• Develop and define instrument system architecture according to product specifications and scopes.
• Conduct design verification, component selection/evaluation.
• Develop hardware design document to promote consistent design practices and process.
• Promote good design practice and optimize reusable design block.
• Play active role in refining and improving hardware design process. Develop hardware design document to promote consistent design practices and processes.

Qualifications

• PhD/Master/Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical/Electronics/Computer Engineering
• Good understanding and experience in whole product development concept and cycle.
• Good working experiences in performing hardware and software system integration tasks.
• Strong knowledge and experiences in fundamental digital, analog and mixed signal circuit design and troubleshooting.
• Advanced experience using EDA circuit simulation tools (eg. LTSpice, PSpice, Saber) for design simulation and verification.
• Demonstrate the ability as a good team player, working independently, self‑motivated with consistent drive to improve hardware design and design processes.
• Experience in leading a design team to complete several projects.
• Good organizational, planning and communication skills.
• Good command in written and spoken English skill.
