Preferred Qualifications * Experience building LLM-based agents, tools, or skills (Claude, MCP, or similar) for engineering automation is a strong plus. The level of role will be based on applicable experience, education and skills; Most offers will be between the minimum and the midpoint of the Salary Range listed below. ## Description Keysight Technologies is seeking an experienced and highly skilled Solution Engineer to join its AI team within Software & AI Labs. This expert-level role combines deep domain knowledge in Digital Photonics (real-time and sampling oscilloscopes, BERTs, arbitrary waveform generators) and Aerospace/Defense (signal sources, radar and EW test) with hands-on AI/ML engineering. The successful candidate will drive data and test-case generation for AI model training on real bench hardware, develop and deploy ML models against that data, and coordinate with internal business units and Machine Learning Engineers (MLEs). Responsibilities * Develop and maintain custom scripts and automation solutions for instrument control and customer testing requirements across scopes, BERTs, AWGs, signal sources, and radar test setups (SCPI, PyVISA, instrument APIs). * Lead data-generation campaigns in the Data Generation Lab on our AI Platform - designing measurement plans and producing high-quality datasets for AI model training. * Develop, train, and validate ML models for measurement science problems: waveform and eye-diagram analysis, EVM/BER/jitter inference, signal classification, and radar/EW scenario characterization. * Convert measurement and optimization workflows into agentic AI skills (LLM-based tooling) so instruments can be operated and results interpreted through AI-driven pipelines. * Coordinate with Keysight business units and MLEs to facilitate high-quality data generation for AI model development. * Act as a primary customer interface for the AI Development Platform in photonics and A&D engagements, ensuring alignment with user needs and technical requirements. * Serve as a technical advisor on high-speed digital, photonics, and radar/EW test technologies across global engagements. * Lead technical discussions, demonstrations, and proof-of-concept initiatives with customers and R&D teams; collaborate with account managers to communicate the value of Keysight's AI solutions. * Deliver training and ongoing technical support to ensure customer success; build and maintain strategic customer relationships. * Represent Keysight at industry events and technical forums. ## Related Videos - [Photonic Computing: Programming a New Class of AI Accelerators (incl.
