Your role in the team
- The Advanced Forward Deployment Engineer works inside a customer's development program as a software developer, systems engineer, and deployment lead in one role, and ships production code.
- This person independently determines and develops the approach to assigned deployment problems, diagnosing issues deep within the protocol stack (Layer 1 to Layer 3), modifying software, validating fixes, and delivering controlled releases during a customer's early development, integration, and regression cycles.
- This is a customer-facing software engineering role where you will embed directly within a customer environment to customize, integrate, and deploy technology into real-world production systems.
- Own technically complex deployment issues from first report to validated fix, independently determining and developing your own approach.
- Work onsite or closely with wireless customer development teams during major feature introductions.
- Analyze signaling flows, traces, timing behavior, and performance data to isolate failures across Keysight and customer implementations.
- Write and modify application and protocol-stack software, plus the supporting software and firmware the customer environment requires.
- Develop and extend Python APIs that customer teams integrate against.
- Build automation workflows inside the customer's workflows.
- Create diagnostic instrumentation when existing tools are insufficient.
- Develop, validate, and deploy controlled patches, feature flags, and interim releases under Keysight's release process.
- Run rapid prototyping loops directly with customers to test and iterate on new features based on live feedback.
- Act as a feedback loop to the core product and engineering teams, translating field problems into engineering requirements and defects for product management and R&D.
