Participate in design reviews of key components, prototype evaluations, and support redesign activities. ### Prototype and small series assembly Initial prototypes should be built to identify mechanical improvements and, if necessary, assembly of small batches in preparation for production ramp-up. ### Station Qualification Define, order, document, qualify, and stabilize NPI-specific test stations to ensure they are 100% ready for deployment into mass production. ### Engineering Documentation Create and maintain detailed technical documentation for product assemblies and test stations. Draft step-by-step work instructions and engineering reports. ### Qualifications We are looking for a hands-on hardware enthusiast (tinkerer/hobbyist mindset) who loves working directly with physical hardware, dismantling components, and solving complex technical puzzles, backed by solid academic fundamentals. ### Educational Background Bachelor’s degree (B.Sc. / B.Eng.) in Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a closely related technical field. (Excellent opportunity for recent graduates / entry-level candidates). ### Schematics Analysis Solid ability to read, interpret, and debug electronic circuit schematics (Mandatory). ### Hardware Rework Practical, hands-on experience in the repair, rework, and hardware-level debugging of modern PCAs (Mandatory). ### Programming Skills Foundational coding proficiency in OOP, ideally C# with a strong willingness to learn automated testing scripts (Mandatory). ### Language Skills Professional fluency ( C1 level or higher) in both German and English is mandatory for local lab management and international collaboration. ### Nice-to-Have Skills Familiarity with Analog RF engineering, RF measurements (time/frequency domain), communication systems, or basic CAD fundamentals. ### Key Soft Skills Strong sense of ownership, exceptional root-cause analysis skills, and a collaborative mindset to interact with international, cross-functional teams. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Aug 13, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 11, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 66 days - Location: Bochum, Germany[Apply on Keysight Technologies’s careers site →](https://globalcareers-keysight.icims.com/jobs/53829/login) ## More jobs at Keysight Technologies ### [6G Channel Emulation Solution Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/keysight-technologies/jobs/3a001f2d3a67796afa2e/) Oulu, Finland ### [AI Platform Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/keysight-technologies/jobs/fdc3496f1ef782f1fa42/) Barcelona, Spain ### [AI/ML Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/keysight-technologies/jobs/f318f7c7ca0078f5ad81/) Penang, Malaysia ### [Aerospace and Defense Solutions Project Manager](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/keysight-technologies/jobs/b3cb8373b881867294b6/) Singapore ### [Americas Wafer Test Solutions Engineering Manager](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/keysight-technologies/jobs/3a8dac7952ab8431dd59/) Austin, Texas +5 more ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [College Intern - New Product Introduction Engineering (NPI Mechanical/Mechatronics)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/hp/jobs/878e31b819f45b9f06cb/) HP · Singapore, South West ### [Sr NPI Engineer (Switchboard)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/abb/jobs/4f1d9deb70dcc8a51965/) ABB · Juarez, Nuevo León, Mexico ### [NPI Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/sanmina-sci/jobs/423c70b9f7b037ea9f51/) Sanmina-SCI · Singapore ### [R&D NPI Expert Design Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/eaton/jobs/b8b613c77bab747bac43/) Eaton · Sincan Ankara, TUR ### [Supplier Development/Project Engineer (NPI) – Machining Processes](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/siemens-energy/jobs/67d585808980c40c0a75/) Siemens Energy [Operations jobs](/functions/operations/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
