Job description
The successful applicant will join a new instrument team. These teams require capable individuals with
diverse talents. The ideal candidate will have experience with one or more of the following: Electronics
(microcontrollers, FPGAs, ADCs, DACs, PLLs, analog, digital, RF, schematic capture and PCB design),
software, firmware, HDL, and algorithm design. Teams work best when programmers can read
schematics, when electronic designers are conversant in code design, and when everyone can
contribute to the timely delivery of a powerful, user-friendly instrument.
Even if you've never built an instrument, if you own a soldering iron, have built electronic boxes, have
written code to control an experiment, enjoy the technology of measurement as much as result itself,
understand noise, Fourier transforms and op-amps, have used a spectrometer, vacuum pump or CAD
system, then you may be who we are looking for.
There is no specific educational requirement. While a majority of R&D engineers at the Company have a
PhD in physics, electrical engineering, or chemistry, we understand that experience, capability, and the
enjoyment of `making things work' can come in many forms. Candidates should have strong written and
oral communications skills and must have a legal right to work in the US.
Salary and Benefits
Salary will be commensurate with talent, skills and experience ranging from $65,000 to $130,000 per
year. Salary is reviewed annually. SRS offers a complete benefits package including health and dental
insurance, matching 401k retirement plan, and paid time off. Relocation assistance is available.
