  • Experience writing software that interacts with one or more of the following electrical test equipment: oscilloscopes, DMMs, DAQs, power supplies, electronic loads, spectrum analyzers, source measure units
  • Experience troubleshooting interactions between software and hardware such as network devices and lab instrumentation
  • Extensive knowledge of Linux and Windows operating systems, with a thorough knowledge of computer architecture and networks
  • Experience with configuration management and version control software
  • Experience in one or more of the following: electronics test rack design and build, data acquisition setup and field measurements, build of electronics systems or test systems for local assembly or industrial applications
  • Extensive knowledge of a range of digital and analog interfaces including USB, VISA, TCP/IP, CAN bus, SPI, I2C, Modbus, analog-to-digital conversion
  • Experience working with spacecraft, automotive, or other industrial hardware, such as high-powered electrical systems and ground-support equipment
  • Solid fundamental knowledge of networks, electronics, RF communications, optics, math, and physics
  • Strong skills in troubleshooting, debugging, and performance optimization

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
  • Willing to work weekends and extended hours as needed
