• Apply Bayesian, gradient-based, and RL-based optimization (PPO, DDPG, SAC) for continuous physical tuning and control.
• Develop scalable training/inference pipelines (multi-GPU, HPC, AWS) and write production-ready Python, C++, and CUDA code.
• Benchmark models against physics simulators and collaborate with product teams to embed AI modules into Keysight software.

• Pursuing PhD in EE, Applied Math, CS, or related field.
• Strong hands-on experience with GNNs, Transformers, Vision Models, and generative models.
• Background in Bayesian/numerical optimization and applied RL.
• Proficiency in Python, C++, CUDA; experience with distributed/HPC training.
• Solid software engineering fundamentals (testing, CI/CD, modular design).

• Experience applying ML/RL to physical parameter tuning or design exploration.
• Familiarity with Keysight tools (ADS, RFPro, EMPro, Signal Studio).
• Publications or patents in scientific ML, generative modeling, RL, or optimization.
