Responsibilities

This job is focusing on the development of state-of-the-art analog and mixed-signal application

specific integrated circuits (ASICs), and monolithic millimeter-wave integrated circuits (MMICs)

and subsystems that provide Keysight’s test and measurement products with a competitive

advantage in performance and cost.

As an Analog and Mixed-Signal (BiCMOS) ASIC / MMIC Design Engineer -, you will apply your IC

design knowledge and experience to design Analog and Mixed-Signal ASICs and MMICs that

enable Keysight’s next generation of measurement/test equipment. To identify what ICs are

needed in current and future Keysight instruments you will be involved in system-level analysis to

identify the needed IC performance with respect to the overall system requirements.

Ideally this role will involve working with Engineering teams at based in US and Germany
