Senior Product Test Engineer
About the role
Set up and operate test equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, DMMs).
Maintain detailed records of failure data, repair actions, and update debug procedures.
Collaborate with design and production teams to resolve recurring issues and improve product yield.
Partner with Component Engineering, Supply Chain, and Hardware teams to influence component selection and mitigate manufacturing risk early in the design cycle.
Perform board bring-up and debug, applying DOE/EFA and hands-on lab work.
Review and influence Process FMEA and Design FMEA, providing diagnostics input.
Provide leadership in complex issue resolution and drive defect/yield improvement initiatives.
Collaborative mindset to work effectively with cross-functional teams and suppliers.
You will have 20% international travel expectation to Taiwan and other future factory locations.
You would set yourself apart from the crowd if you have experience in fixture design and factory implementation support.
Diagnose and repair electronic assemblies (PCBA) down to the component level.
Preferred working experience in manufacturing environment working directly with Contract Manufacturers (CMs) and ODMs to close capability gaps, improve yield, and qualify new components.
Drive DFM and DFT across the product lifecycle, partnering with EE designers and EE validation engineers to improve test coverage, manufacturability, and diagnosability.
Lead PCBA test fixture design and support factory implementation.
Qualifications
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
5+ years of experience in manufacturing, product, or electrical engineering.
Strong knowledge of system hardware architectures and PCB fabrication/assembly processes.
Strong understanding of electronics circuits, schematics, and PCB Layouts.
Experience with DFX/DFM, yield assessment, and board-level debug.
Hands-on experience with PCB CAD/CAE tools (e.g., Allegro, Valor) and understanding of design-to-build flows.
Proven ability to work across NPI and sustaining environments, from proto bring-up to ramp.

How we're different
We believe in the Bitter Lesson. We are the first inference-focused frontier AI system, betting early on transformer and transformer-like architectures and on increasing model sizes.
Our addressable market is the entirety of inference, unlike many of our competitors.
We are a fully in-person team in San Jose (Santana Row), and greatly value engineering skills.
We do not have boundaries between engineering and research, and we expect all of our technical staff to contribute to both and work across disciplines as needed.
