Must Have Technical/Functional Skills
• 10 years minimum experience with hardware bring-up, design validation, manufacturing, and troubleshooting
• Deep overall understanding of computer systems: electrical, functional, logical, software, mechanical, thermal etc.
• Experience applying hardware evaluation methodologies (lab measurements, data analysis, infrastructure setup and maintenance, etc)
• Strong Program Mgmt skills; Able to lead a multi-disciplinary group with minimal supervision, ensuring that each provides thorough test plans and executes in a timely fashion
• Hands-on (HW assembly, test infrastructure setup, electrical/functional test execution, root cause analysis)
• Proficient in operating test equipment such as Oscilloscopes, Logic Analyzers, DC power supplies, etc.
• Natural problem-solver, self learner (I don't know but I will find out)
• Excellent communication and documentation skills (ex: first level analysis of test results and generate summaries, visualizations, conclusions, reports)
Bonus:
• Familiar with Linux OS
• Ability to make minor modifications to test scripts
• Automotive test experience
• RF test experience
Roles & Responsibilities
• Lead Design Verification (DV): Drive the creation, execution, and reporting of comprehensive test plans across multiple hardware domains (e.g., SI/PI, RF, Antenna, Thermal, Reliability, and Compliance).
• Manage Failure Analysis (FA): Serve as the primary engineering point of contact for all hardware failure analysis activities across the product lifecycle (DV, Manufacturing, Reliability, Field, etc.).
• Drive Manufacturing Test Strategy: Develop, plan, and oversee manufacturing hardware test strategies, including FP/ICT, BFT, and Run-in
• Oversee Lab Operations: Manage hardware lab environments, including hardware allocation, tracking, configuration, setup, and rework processes.
• Cross-Functional Testing Support: Provide hands-on support for ongoing Electrical, Functional, RF, Radar, Reliability, Thermal testing initiatives.
• Support Manufacturing Builds: Ensure successful manufacturing builds by managing materials readiness, providing training, and resolving production FA issues.
• Lead Hardware Sustaining Efforts: Drive post-launch hardware quality improvements, manage field quality FA, coordinate End-of-Life (EoL) responses, and lead PRQ initiatives.
• [Optional] Develop HW Test Tools: Create, optimize, and maintain hardware test scripts and automation tools
Salary Range: $100,000-$125,000 a year
