System and Application Engineer F/M

Catania April 13, 2026 Full Time Workday

System and Application Engineer position.

Analog Front-End (AFE) Engineer with a solid foundation in analog circuit and strong complementary software skills (3/4 years of experience).
In this role, you will contribute to the development, characterization, and validation of AFE subsystems for next‑generation products.

Lab Characterization & Validation

  • Perform bench measurements of AFE circuits using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, SMUs, AWGs, and DMMs.
  • Execute test plans, analyze measurement results, and support debug of silicon issues.
  • Develop scripts for automating lab setups and data acquisition.

Software & Firmware Support

  • Implement test automation, data processing, and analysis software using Python or C/C++.
  • Contribute to firmware or embedded software used to control or characterize the AFE (MCU/SOC environments).
  • Develop tools to visualize, analyze, and post-process large data sets from simulations or lab runs.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with analog designers, digital designers, systems engineers, and validation teams.
  • Prepare clear technical documentation, reports, and presentations.
  • Participate in design reviews, bring‑ups, and requirements discussions.

The Systems Engineer / Architect designs a complete and complex framework, system or product. Defines processes for technical platforms, system specifications, input/output and working parameters for hardware and/or software compatibility. Conceives system interfaces and business application prototypes. Identifies, analyzes and resolves system design weaknesses. Influences the shaping of future products by contributing to the framework (architecture) used across multiple products or systems. Provides multi-layered technical expertise for next generation initiatives. Exclude field technicians, engineers and personnel primarily involved in installation, maintenance, modification and repair of equipment. If 75 percent of the time is spent performing a specific engineering function, use that profile for your job matches.
