About the Team
Keysight Design Engineering Software (DES) is Keysight’s electronic design automation (EDA) business that develops tools, workflows, solutions, and devices to accelerate customer development cycles for complex, high-frequency circuits, modules, boards, and systems. Our electro-magnetic (EM) simulation technologies are at the core of enabling next-generation MMIC, RFIC, RF Module and PCB design.
About the Role
We are seeking a Senior Software Developer to join our electro-magnetic simulation team in DES. In this role, you will be a key technical contributor advancing our state-of-the-art EM simulators. You will shape the core EM simulation algorithms and ensure that our software solutions meet the performance, scalability, and reliability demands of cutting-edge RF, micro- and millimeter-wave designers.
As a senior software developer, you will work closely with cross-functional stakeholders — including Marketing, R&D, Technical Support, and Quality Assurance — to capture requirements and deliver whole-product solutions.
You will also investigate emerging technologies, lead design reviews, validate solutions with customer feedback, and foster best practices in software engineering within our Agile development framework.
Responsibilities:
- Define and develop the algorithms of advanced EM simulation software with a focus on accuracy, scalability, reliability, and high performance.
Evaluate and integrate new technologies to advance the simulator’s capabilities.
Troubleshoot and resolve complex algorithmic and performance issues.
Collaborate across functions (Marketing, R&D, QA, Technical Support) to align the simulator capabilities with customer workflows and product strategy.
Mentor and guide on software design and coding best practices.
Promote best practices in Agile software development (test-driven development, up-front design, code review, continuous integration).
Contribute to technical documentation.
Qualifications:
Required Qualifications
Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Math, or a related technical field.
Strong background on computational electromagnetics or numerical analysis.
Experience developing and maintaining a field solver.
Proven experience designing and evolving complex computational algorithms for large-scale, high-performance simulations.
Expert-level proficiency in C++.
Strong software design skills.
Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
Strong communication, leadership, and ability to collaborate across multi-site, multi-cultural teams.
Desired Qualifications
Experience with Rust and Python.
