• Contribute to the development and execution of strategic account plans and play an active role in advancing key opportunities.
• Prepare customer-facing materials such as proposals, quotations, technical value statements, and follow-up communications.
• Build meaningful relationships with design, validation, and test engineering teams.

Technical Demonstrations & Solution Positioning

• Deliver compelling demonstrations of Teledyne LeCroy’s oscilloscopes, including high-speed serial test solutions, power integrity analysis, and automotive bus decoding tools, to both engineering teams and executive audiences.
• Translate complex signal integrity, timing, power, and serial data concepts into clear and accessible explanations for diverse technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Partner closely with Field Applications Engineers, Product Management, and Marketing to address customer requirements and emerging technology trends.

Required Education, Skills, and Experience:

Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a closely related technical discipline.
• Strong understanding of electronics fundamentals, including circuits, signals, digital systems, and embedded/ECU-level architectures.
• Ability to quickly learn and apply high-speed serial test methods, oscilloscope measurement techniques, and emerging high speed serial electrical standards.
• Solid analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret waveforms, debug issues, and reason through complex system behavior.
• Genuine interest in working at the intersection of engineering, customer engagement, and business development, with the ability to translate technical insights into customer value.

Experience
