Staff Manufacturing Test Engineer

Skills

About the Role

You will support high-volume server manufacturing from board-level through system-level production testing. You will define, implement, validate, and optimize test strategies with ODM partners; develop test plans and infrastructure; specify fixtures and manufacturing lines; monitor yield and quality; investigate failures; and drive corrective actions through NPI, production ramp, and sustaining manufacturing.

Requirements

• 8+ years of manufacturing test engineering, hardware test engineering, or production test development experience
• Experience supporting high-volume server manufacturing or comparable compute, networking, storage, or datacenter hardware
• Understanding of ICT, MDA, board functional testing, diagnostic test execution, and manufacturing defect detection
• Experience working with ODM, CM, or JDM manufacturing partners
• Hands-on experience with Linux-based test environments
• Experience with test execution, scripting, log collection, and failure triage
• Familiarity with server hardware architecture, CPUs, memory, storage, networking, BMCs, firmware, power subsystems, and high-speed interfaces
• Experience defining test fixture requirements and supporting fixture bring-up and validation
• Understanding of first-pass yield, retest rate, defect paretos, failure analysis, and corrective action
• Root-cause analysis and corrective-action experience
• Ability to review test logs and isolate hardware, firmware, software, process, or fixture issues
• Experience with Python, Bash, or other scripting languages
• Knowledge of manufacturing data systems, test-result databases, yield dashboards, and factory analytics
• Experience with NPI, EVT, DVT, PVT, pilot builds, and production ramp
• Familiarity with test coverage analysis, DFT, DFM, and manufacturing escape prevention

Responsibilities

• Define and execute manufacturing test strategies with ODM partners
• Develop and review ICT, MDA, board functional test, diagnostic coverage, line-flow, and failure-containment plans
• Define requirements for test stations, fixtures, test software, diagnostic content, and production infrastructure
• Deploy and validate board functional tests in ODM manufacturing environments
• Review coverage reports and improve manufacturing defect detection
• Define pass/fail criteria, test limits, data collection, retest rules, and failure-handling processes
• Support manufacturing test bring-up, debugging, and qualification during NPI and production ramp
• Deploy L10 system-level manufacturing test processes
• Port board functional tests into L10 manufacturing environments
• Specify line, station, fixture, cabling, tooling, data-capture, networking, and operator-workflow requirements
• Drive fixture validation, correlation, maintenance planning, and production readiness
• Monitor yield, failure paretos, retest rates, false failures, and escape risks
• Lead investigations into test failures, quality excursions, and yield loss
• Drive root-cause analysis, containment, corrective action, and process improvements
• Support NPI builds, pilot builds, production ramp, and sustaining manufacturing
• Communicate test readiness, risks, yield issues, and quality status
