Analog Devices is seeking a senior system design engineer for its Data Center & Energy (DCE) group at ADI US Headquarters in Wilmington, MA. Within DCE, we deliver high‑reliability power, connectivity, and analytics solutions for modern data centers and energy infrastructure.

The successful candidate will develop embedded software and algorithms that produce advanced telemetry in high-performance power supply applications. This is a hands‑on, lab‑intensive system engineering role requiring strong understanding of power supply behavior. You will design experiments, build hardware and embedded environments, tune and validate algorithms, and work directly with stakeholders to present findings, challenges, and system‑level solutions.

This is a demanding multi-disciplinary position with unique growth potential. The group culture aims to foster a challenging, exciting, and supportive environment. The team members must be comfortable working on a wide variety of products and technologies in a fast-paced and agile environment. Analog Devices rewards performance, innovation, and collaboration.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Design and run lab experiments to identify key indicators of power system behavior
• Tune and validate algorithms to eliminate false positives and negatives across diverse customer use cases
• Build and use FPGA‑ and microprocessor‑based prototypes to test and refine new algorithms
• Perform board-level bring‑up, measurement, and debug to support system‑level evaluations
• Collaborate with internal teams and present findings to stakeholders, including key customers

Minimum Qualifications:

• BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent)
• 4+ years of experience in system design, embedded development, or mixed HW/SW engineering roles
• Familiarity with power supply operation and measurement fundamentals
• Proficiency with embedded software development (C/C++), algorithm implementation, and scripting for data analysis (Python/MATLAB)
• Experience with FPGA- or microprocessor-based system bring‑up and lab debugging
• Proficient with high-performance measurement equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, SMUs, electronic loads)
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently within defined objectives
• Good organization; written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Qualifications:

• MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent)
• Background in signal processing, anomaly detection, or model-based system diagnostics
• Familiarity with power telemetry data and PMBus
• Experience engaging directly with customers or external stakeholders
• Experience creating automation tools for data capture, experiment orchestration, or algorithm evaluation
• Exposure to environmental testing or characterization of power systems
