Responsibilities

  • Module and board NPI for datacenter and HPC products from first-article through mass production ramp, with accountability for yield targets, quality gates, and on-time delivery
  • Define and continuously improve manufacturing test plans, balancing coverage, test-time, cost, and yield across board and system levels; partner with CM sites worldwide to qualify and scale solutions
  • Analyze volume manufacturing data using scripting and analytics to surface trends and inform quick decisions
  • Perform root-cause analysis across silicon, PCB, and system layers when boards fail; implement DFM and DFT improvements for design teams; brief leadership on status, yield trends, and roadmaps

Qualifications

  • 5+ years in product engineering, product development, manufacturing, or validation of PCBs, silicon, or complex systems experience
  • Hands-on depth in two or more: server architectures and datacenter system integration; PCB/board design, SMT, and assembly process engineering; board-level or post-silicon validation and characterization; high-speed interface validation (PCIe, NVLink, Ethernet, PAM4); Power Integrity analysis and thermal characterization; or complex test setup design and automation
  • History of leading complex GPU or board-level projects to mass production on schedule, with high quality and yield
  • Ability to diagnose and resolve multi-disciplinary problems spanning silicon, board, firmware, and system layers
  • Understanding of testing strategy economics — how coverage, test-time, and escape rate relate to yield and cost outcomes
