    Description

    The Principal Manufacturing Test Engineer will shape the strategy, development, and deployment of test systems for computer hardware products throughout the entire production lifecycle—spanning individual modules, fully assembled servers, racks, and large-scale clusters. This role applies automation, advanced analytics, and Design‑for‑Test methodologies to build scalable solutions that support smooth product launches and zero‑defect performance.

    Duties

    • Lead or support major transformation efforts that redefine manufacturing risk analysis, quality practices, and continuous improvement standards.
    • Establish new systems, processes, and frameworks that advance the smart‑factory vision, leveraging automation, metrology, advanced inspection, testing, and predictive analytics.
    • Partner closely with design, quality, manufacturing, test, and supplier engineering teams to deliver tightly integrated solutions for production.
    • Use rich data environments and analytical tools to uncover insights; improve yield, reliability, and throughput using root‑cause analysis and Time‑to‑Failure (TTF) methodologies.
    • Apply advanced statistical and analytical techniques to measure, quantify, and manage risk in complex manufacturing systems.
    • Convert DFM and PFMEA outputs into proactive process controls that prevent variation rather than react to it.
    • Build and execute test strategies across all hyperscale assembly stages—module, server, rack, and cluster.
    • Define the strategy and lead development of cluster‑level validation testing.
    • Establish world‑class manufacturing test practices and create a clear roadmap for achieving them.
    • Encourage innovative thinking and a healthy risk‑taking culture that enables cutting‑edge test methodologies and tools.
    • Act as a subject‑matter expert on customer product design and test infrastructure requirements.
    • Own and guide Design‑for‑Test (DFT) strategies across all products.
    • Mentor and develop global test teams, fostering learning, growth, and strong data‑driven decision‑making.
    • Architect and supervise deployment of high‑reliability factory test infrastructure and test stations (manual, automated, and semi‑automated).
    • Specify and manage Test Management and Execution Software to orchestrate diagnostics, workflows, and reporting. Oversee development and maintenance of Test Executive automation for module‑ and system‑level testing.
    • Integrate customer test requirements, software, and infrastructure into production systems.
    • Write and maintain comprehensive test plans and coverage documentation.
    • Drive use of industry‑standard and open‑source test tools.
    • Develop industry‑leading low‑level tests, utilities, and diagnostics at the board and module levels.
    • Lead adoption of automation across all test stages to reduce cycle time, improve test coverage, and increase yield.

    Requirements

    • Advanced degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, or a related discipline.
    • 10–15 years of experience in complex, high‑volume manufacturing, including at least 5 years in leadership or transformation‑focused roles (not limited to people management).
    • Expertise in hyperscale system architectures, including:
    • Strong understanding of interactions across the hardware stack
    • Demonstrated experience developing tests at the board, module, server, rack, and cluster levels.
    • Strong background in diagnostics, fault isolation, and root‑cause analysis.
    • Proven track record designing and sustaining high‑volume production test stations.
    • Advanced knowledge of analytical and statistical methodologies (regression, correlation, DOE, SPC, PFMEA, Gauge R\&R, commonality studies) using tools such as Minitab or JMP.
    • Proficiency with data‑driven tools like Python, R, SQL, Minitab, and JMP.
    • Demonstrated success in improving yield, reliability, and overall process robustness.
    • Excellent communication skills with the ability to interface effectively at both executive and technical levels.
    • Experience in electronics manufacturing, PCBA, server production, or other high‑reliability industries (e.g., aerospace, medical devices, automotive).
