Opportunity Overview

The Teradyne Hardware Engineering team is looking for a highly motivated, technically driven Calibration Engineer to develop calibration software, algorithms and validation for instruments within the Compute Test division. You will own calibration tasks for assigned instrument functions with guidance from senior engineers and a team lead, and grow your expertise in precision measurement and ATE. Development happens in a dynamic, multi-site environment. This role reports to the Calibration Software Engineering Manager.

Responsibilities

• Develop calibration programs and embedded algorithms for Digital, DC, AC and RF instrument calibration in ATE equipment, using C/C++/C# and Python.
• Contribute to calibration strategy documents that define the HW circuits needed for instruments to meet accuracy specifications, applying knowledge of low-level analog and digital circuits.
• Support HW error budget development and offline and online validation of error terms, using statistical analysis to determine specification and process compliance.
• Develop offline and online tests that validate instrument calibration and HW performance.
• Debug problems found by calibration programs, and work with cross-functional teams to implement corrective action.
• Develop programs that bring external measurement equipment (DMMs, spectrum analyzers, power meters) into calibration and validation programs.
• Own assigned calibration features end to end with periodic review, and present results in design reviews.
• Help onboard and mentor interns, co-ops or new engineers on calibration tools and processes.

All About You

• BS or MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or a related field with equivalent experience), 5 or more years of relevant experience. A new-graduate MS with strong project or internship work will be considered.
• Experience writing programs and algorithms for instruments or measurement systems in C, C++, C# and/or Python.
• Understanding of analog and digital circuit fundamentals: op-amps, ADC/DAC, noise, offset and gain error.
• Hands-on experience with bench instruments (DMM, oscilloscope, power supply, spectrum analyzer).
• Working knowledge of statistics and data analysis for measurement validation.
• Strong problem-solving skills and willingness to learn new domains quickly.

Preferred

• Bachelor/Master's degree in computer science and electrical engineering
• Exposure to calibration strategy documents, error budgets or ATE/semiconductor test.
• Experience with C# and automated test frameworks

We are only considering candidates local to position location and are unable to provide relocation for this position.
