About the role

Manufacturing Test Development Engineer to develop, implement, and optimize automated manufacturing test solutions for advanced AI computing hardware, focusing on test fixtures, hardware interfaces, QA of manufacturing test processes, and production metrics.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain automated test systems for advanced computing hardware, including system boards, high-speed interconnects, power delivery, cooling subsystems, and integrated computing platforms.
  • Design manufacturing test strategies covering board-level functional testing, system integration, hardware diagnostics, and final system acceptance.
  • Develop test procedures, test specifications, test fixtures, and supporting documentation for new product introduction (NPI) and production ramp.
  • Define test coverage requirements, acceptance criteria, and pass/fail limits in collaboration with design, quality, and test teams.
  • Evaluate and implement appropriate test methodologies, instrumentation, and automation frameworks to improve manufacturing test effectiveness.
  • Integrate test equipment, programmable power supplies, electronic loads, oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, communication interfaces, and hardware management controllers.
  • Support NPI builds, pilot production, manufacturing qualification, and high-volume production ramp.
  • Troubleshoot manufacturing test failures and collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify root causes and implement corrective actions.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on test cycle time, station utilization, process repeatability, and manufacturing cost.
  • Verify that manufacturing test solutions are repeatable, maintainable, and suitable for deployment across production sites.
  • Partner with design engineering, systems engineering, firmware, software, quality, supply chain, and contract manufacturing teams.
  • Support manufacturing test station deployment, equipment qualification, operator training, and process documentation.
  • Communicate test results, production risks, and improvement opportunities to engineering and operations stakeholders.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years (10 years is ideal) of experience in manufacturing test development, hardware validation, test automation, or production engineering.
  • Proficiency in Python for test automation, hardware control, data processing, and diagnostic development.
  • Hands-on experience testing electronic assemblies, computer systems, embedded hardware, or complex electromechanical products.
  • Experience integrating automated test software with laboratory or manufacturing test equipment.
  • Strong understanding of digital electronics, power electronics fundamentals, communication interfaces, and hardware bring-up.
  • Experience with contract manufacturers and outsourced manufacturing operations.
