About the role

Role focused on end-to-end product lifecycle management for datacenter hardware, GPU servers, and board-level products, bridging hardware R&D with ODM/CM manufacturing to ensure quality, yield, and timely delivery in the AI server market.

Responsibilities

  • Drive the NPI lifecycle for datacenter hardware, GPU servers, and board products from first-article validation to mass production ramp, holding end-to-end accountability for product quality and delivery timelines.
  • Participate in early-stage hardware design reviews to provide DFM (Design for Manufacturing) / DFT (Design for Test) feedback, optimizing production quality and first-pass yield (FPY).
  • Collaborate closely with ODM/CM engineering teams to resolve real-time production issues, enhance yield, and reduce manufacturing costs — acting as the product-side point of contact to coordinate communication and decisions.
  • Define hardware test requirements, analyze test failures, and guide factory teams in debugging complex PCBA and server platform issues through failure analysis (FA).
  • Forecast and plan required production test equipment, tooling, and factory capacity based on product complexity and program timelines.
  • Interface cross-functionally with hardware, firmware, and software R&D teams; author and maintain global-ready SOPs and test specifications, ensuring consistency and traceability from R&D through mass production.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of Product Engineering or NPI experience with servers, GPU/AI computing platforms, or datacenter hardware.
  • Familiarity with mass production workflows and test strategy for PCBA and server motherboard/system integration, with hands-on experience owning quality, yield, and cost from a product-level perspective.
  • Hands-on experience with DFM/DFT reviews, partnering with R&D teams to deliver actionable design optimization feedback.
  • Prior experience partnering with ODM/CM manufacturers strongly preferred, with the ability to independently manage cross-site, cross-team coordination and issue escalation.
  • Working knowledge of yield analysis and failure analysis tools and methods (e.g., FA lab, X-ray, ICT/FCT testing), with the ability to translate findings into actionable product improvements.
  • Experience with capacity planning and equipment/tooling deployment to support fast production ramps.
  • Strong written and verbal English communication skills, including the ability to author English-language SOPs and communicate directly with overseas teams.
  • Experience working across time zones on multinational project teams is a plus.
