About The Position

Allegro MicroSystems is seeking an enthusiastic, analytical Systems Engineer to join our global engineering team. In this role, you will help define, model, and evaluate next-generation magnetic sensing integrated circuits (ICs) that bring motion and control to life in everyday technology—powering everything from ultra-precise gaming controllers and joysticks, robotics, and smart cordless tools, to high-efficiency brushless motor commutation and automotive subsystems. Working closely with senior systems engineers, IC designers, applications teams, and product marketing, you will translate system-level customer requirements into detailed hardware specifications, develop behavioral models, and perform hands-on lab validation of new silicon.
This role is ideal for a recent graduate or early-career engineer looking to build deep expertise across mixed-signal IC architectures, system-level modeling, sensor lab automation, and high-volume consumer, industrial, and automotive applications.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related technical field.
• 0 to 3 years of academic or industry experience (relevant engineering internships or co-ops strongly valued).
• Foundational proficiency with numerical modeling and simulation tools such as MATLAB / Simulink or Python.
• Solid foundational knowledge of analog circuits, digital logic, signal processing, and feedback/control systems.
• Hands-on experience with standard electrical lab equipment (oscilloscopes, power supplies, function generators, multimeters) gained through coursework, projects, prior internships, or job experience.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills; eager to learn, take initiative, and work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team (One Allegro mindset).

Nice To Haves

• Prior internship or project experience in the semiconductor, automotive electronics, or power/motor control industries.
• Exposure to serial automotive/sensor communication protocols (e.g., SPI, I2C, SENT, CAN, PWM).
• Exposure to functional safety concepts (ISO 26262) or requirements management systems (e.g., Jama Connect).
• Basic experience with PCB design or automated test setups (Altium, KiCad, MATLAB, Python).

Responsibilities

• Assist senior engineers in breaking down customer use cases, application notes, and industry standards into clear IC-level electrical and functional requirements.
• Build and run behavioral simulations using MATLAB, Simulink, or Python to analyze magnetic behavior, sensor noise performance, and mixed-signal processing paths from sensing element to output.
• Help maintain system requirements and verification traceability using requirements management tools (such as Jama Connect).
• Work in the lab alongside Applications, IC Design, and Test Engineering teams to set up testbenches, validate silicon performance against system requirements, and characterize system behavior across operating conditions.
• Support the creation of technical collateral, including datasheets, application notes, design calculation tools, and validation summary reports.
• Partner with Analog/Digital IC Design, Test Engineering, and Marketing teams to ensure alignment on product deliverables throughout the product development lifecycle.

Benefits

• We foster a culture of Real Innovation, empowering you to push boundaries, develop cutting-edge solutions, and drive continuous improvement.
• Your work will create a Real Impact by solving complex real-world challenges that fuel our success and shape the future of technology.
• You’ll experience Real Connection, collaborating with talented colleagues around the globe in an environment built on trust, respect, and a shared purpose.
