• Lead development of automation frameworks and diagnostics tools to enable scalable and repeatable testing.

• Analyze test data to identify root causes, guide debug efforts, and improve validation coverage.

• Provide technical leadership and mentorship across multidisciplinary teams and represent system test considerations in architecture and design reviews.

What we need to see:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

• 8+ years of experience in hardware/system test engineering, preferably in the semiconductor, computing, or high-performance systems industries.

• Deep understanding of system architecture, including CPUs, GPUs, memory subsystems, I/O, and power delivery.

• Proven experience developing and executing validation plans for complex hardware systems.

• Strong debugging skills and experience with hardware test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.).

• Familiarity with firmware, BIOS, and low-level software stack interactions.

• Proficient in scripting and automation (Python, Perl, Bash, etc.).

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Excellent communication, collaboration, and leadership skills.
