Tektronix is seeking a Software Engineering Co‑op (Oscilloscope Platform) to join our platform team for a 6‑month MECOP term in 2026
. In this role, you’ll help build and validate next‑generation oscilloscope capabilities—from Qt‑based UI experiences to high‑performance embedded processing. You’ll collaborate with experienced hardware and software engineers in an environment that emphasizes hands‑on learning, mentorship, and technical growth.
You will be paired with a dedicated engineering mentor and contribute to real product development work, including prototyping, performance evaluation, test automation, and instrument validation.
What You’ll Do- Support software development and validation for next‑generation oscilloscope and test & measurement platforms
- Investigate technical risk areas, run performance experiments, and share results that inform architecture decisions
- Prototype and implement algorithms or platform enhancements; validate solutions on real instruments
- Develop test plans, automate workflows, and strengthen CI dashboards/regression health
- Collaborate across disciplines to bridge firmware, UI, and system performance
- Contribute to a scoped co‑op project and present results at the end of the term to engineering stakeholders
- During the term, you will gain experience in:
- Product software lifecycle (requirements → design → implementation → verification → release)
- Embedded and instrument‑focused debugging and performance profiling
- Test strategy development, automation practices, and CI/CD workflows
- Effective technical communication (documentation, presentations, design reviews)
- Working within a cross‑functional engineering environment
- Enrolled in a Bachelor’s degree program in Computer Engineering (preferred), Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science and eligible/accepted for the MECOP program (2026)
- Strong C/C++ fundamentals (OOP, memory management, multithreading concepts)
- Comfort working hands‑on with real instruments/hardware and following safe lab practices
- Strong problem‑solving skills and attention to detail
- Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly (written and verbal)
- Exposure to Qt/QML
- Embedded/firmware development exposure on Linux and/or Windows
- Experience with scripting or test automation (Python, JavaScript)
- Familiarity with Agile/Scrum and tools such as Jira, Git (Bitbucket/Git Hub), Jenkins
- Interest in oscilloscopes and test & measurement technologies
- Candidates must be able to work full‑time for the full 6‑month MECOP term (2026).
