System Hardware Engineer

The Opportunity

Roles and Responsibilities

• The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in helping to develop AttoTude’s next generation communications platform and will be responsible for maintaining a testbed for MODEM characterization and optimization. Your experimental data will fuel our designs, starting with prototypes and evolving into the final product. This requires ownership of the testbed, measurement metrology, calibration methods, and stabilization techniques. You will characterize hardware, analyze results and provide rapid feedback into hardware architecture and design teams. You will assess the signal processing, both off-line and real-time, for measurement of bit-error rate in the presence of impairments and work to diagnose any issues.
• Through frequent interaction with other engineering teams, you will assist in developing algorithms for optimizing performance and transitioning realized performance gains to volume production.

Qualifications, Skills, and Requirements

• PhD in Electrical Engineering or Applied Physics with specialization in high speed electronic or electro-optic communication systems
