About the role
The Debug Program Engineer leads the Server Platform Debug Steering Forum and owns the debugging cadence across server platform, silicon, firmware, and validation teams to drive issues to closure, with hands-on technical responsibilities and cross-team coordination.
Responsibilities
- Lead the Server Platform Debug Steering Forum end to end — agenda, prioritization, technical review of open issues, decisions, and follow-through between sessions
- Maintain an accurate, single source of truth for debug execution: issue inventory, severity and priority, technical owner, current hypothesis, next debug step, and expected closure date
- Ensure technical owners are actively driving to root cause and closure; identify stalled or circular investigations early and escalate with a clear ask
- Coordinate the resources required to sustain debug momentum — system/board availability, instrumentation, lab and bench time, silicon samples, and access to subject-matter experts across firmware, SI/PI, thermal, and validation
- Drive cross-team dependencies where an issue spans platform, silicon, firmware, or supplier scope, and broker the handoffs needed to keep the investigation moving
- Distinguish genuine technical blockers from resourcing or prioritization gaps, and route each to the right decision-maker
- Publish recurring debug status to program and engineering leadership — burn-down, aging, top blockers, and launch-risk issues — via dashboards and written summaries
- Capture and propagate debug learnings, known-issue patterns, and triage best practices across programs
- Operate with urgency during escalations and critical launch-blocking debug efforts
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering is desired
