In this role, you will work hands-on at the intersection of software and hardware —building prototypes, GUI development, test automation, and software debugging with direct hardware testing.

Responsibilities • Software Prototyping & GUI Development: Build functional software prototypes and user-friendly Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) to control, monitor, and interface with underlying hardware systems.

• Hands-on Software-Hardware Debugging: Test software-hardware integration, identify defects and bugs for fixes. • Automation Scripting: Translate manual hardware testing procedures into repeatable automated test scripts.

• Engineering Support: Support other ongoing development efforts. • Agile & DevOps Workflow: Participate in daily standups, sprint planning, pull requests and standard DevOps workflows across both Windows and Linux environments.

• Intern Project: Take end-to-end ownership of a dedicated project—applying software design, testing, and technology integration principles from initial concept to final presentation.

Qualifications • Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.

• Programming proficiency in at least one of the following languages: Python, C/C++, and C#. • Exposure to hardware drivers and low-level hardware-to-software communication interfaces (e.

g., serial protocols, bus interfaces). • Experience with desktop GUI frameworks (e.g., PyQt6 for Python, Qt for C++, or WPF/.NET for C#). • Basic understanding of fundamental encryption concepts and data security principles.

• Strong desire and willingness to learn the detailed operational mechanics of GPS/GNSS technologies and positional data systems. • Practical understanding of the Agile software development lifecycle and core DevOps principles.

• Working knowledge of both Windows and Linux operating systems. • Willingness to perform hands-on hardware testing that directly informs automation scripting.

• Strong communication skills with an appetite for sharing ideas and technical solutions. Relocation is available for this role. Careers Privacy Statement***Keysight is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
