- Design, develop, and test innovative hardware.
- Define the test process and procedure, write complete unit and system-level test plans for the unit and/or the entire product line, and implement the end-to-end test execution of a program from concept commit to sustaining.
- Implement sophisticated unit and system-level testing, debug and isolate, analyze complex problems, and help facilitate the root cause, resolution, and closure.
- Support Design Engineers on complex issues at the unit or system level.
- Perform in-depth fault isolation, provide detailed mitigation, and drive issues to closure.
- Perform front-end and board-mounted power supply qualification (component, AC/DC, DC/DC) at a system level.
- Perform analysis of system power, current, voltage drop, power stability, and complete measurements.
- Identify test and process improvements and refine core strategies, use automation to implement test strategy & improve efficiency.
- Help with root cause field issues, supported customer partner concerns, and fixed verification.
- Perform board-level and system-level power design and supply qualification and implement current, power, and voltage stability characterization.
- Perform thermal design qualification and thermal, power, noise, and airflow characterization.
As a Hardware Engineer on the Hardware Design Validation Test (DVT) team, you will be a critical member of the EDVT (Electrical), MDVT (Mechanical), PDVT (Power), or DVT Automation team. You will work closely with multi-functional teams (Hardware Development, Diagnostics/ Software Development, Mechanical, SI, Power, Thermal, Compliance, and Manufacturing). Through these close partnerships, you will deliver outstanding products and solutions to our customers and drive continual improvements on the team.

- Knowledge of Mechanical Design principles and Environmental Test Standards (IEC, ETSI, MIL-STD).
- Knowledge and experience with TCL, Python, Perl, or other scripting languages or automation tools.
- Understanding the OSI model, LAN/WAN topologies, and basic router and switch configurations using IPV4/IPv6/MPLS/VRF.
We tackle whatever challenges come our way. We have each other's backs, recognize our accomplishments, and grow together. We celebrate and support one another – from big and small things in life to big career moments. And giving back is in our DNA (we get ten days off each year to do just that).
