About The Position

Keysight is at the forefront of technology innovation, delivering breakthroughs and trusted insights in electronic design, simulation, prototyping, test, manufacturing, and optimization. Our ~16,800 employees create world-class solutions in communications, 5G, automotive, energy, quantum, aerospace, defense, and semiconductor markets for customers in over 100 countries. Our award-winning 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. Build the foundation that Keysight's instruments run on. Our instrument infrastructure team is part of Keysight Laboratories, Keysight's central research and development organization. We create the software platform that product teams around the world build on. The code you write won't ship in just one product. It becomes the shared foundation for the next generation of Keysight test and measurement systems. This is full-stack work in the truest sense. You'll work from register-level hardware interfaces and drivers up through application software, and you'll carry your designs from architecture through production.
