Hardware Testing Engineer Group C

Duties And Responsibilities

• Assemble, configure, and commission server systems and development platforms from component-level through full rack deployment.
• Update firmware on multiple systems simultaneously and monitor diagnostic workloads for boot, stability, and performance issues.
• Troubleshoot hardware and software failures; perform root cause analysis and document findings for engineering teams.
• Recover failed systems/trays; perform OS deployments, system recovery procedures, and hardware replacement as needed.
• Connect test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters) to boards; collect and interpret signal waveform data to validate circuit behavior.
• Support rack bring-up activities including basic mechanical reworks (power tools), cable routing, and inventory management.
• Maintain lab safety, equipment organization, and lab documentation; identify and implement process improvements.
• Work rotating shifts including nights, weekends, and on-call support to ensure 24/7 lab coverage during critical engineering phases.

Requirements

• 12–18 months hands-on experience in an electronics/testing lab, manufacturing, datacenter operations, or large-scale server environment.
• Linux command-line proficiency — comfortable troubleshooting kernel issues, managing processes, permissions, file systems, and networking from the CLI.
• Server hardware fundamentals — practical knowledge of provisioning, OS deployment, firmware flashing, system recovery, and hardware troubleshooting.
• Basic networking knowledge — TCP/IP, DHCP, DNS, switching, routing fundamentals; ability to support rack bring-up and network configuration.
• Bash and/or Python scripting — can write basic scripts to automate testing, logging, or system diagnostics.
• Attention to detail and communication — ability to document issues clearly, follow schematics, and collaborate with engineers across time zones.
• Willingness to work overtime, weekends, and rotating shifts as business needs require.

Skills

• Experience with x86 and ARM processor architectures.
• BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) or server management processor experience.
• Experience with oscilloscopes and signal measurement for circuit validation.
• Ability to perform basic solder reworks or board-level repairs.
• Experience with GPU computing or accelerated hardware platforms.
• Manufacturing, hardware validation, or QA lab background.
