About The Position

Hewlett Packard Enterprise is seeking a Hardware Test Engineer to work on its HPE Cray supercomputing hardware. The engineer will work independently and with other HPE engineers to develop and execute test plans validating electrical hardware at component, board, and system levels. Testing focuses on new-design validation, regression testing of design modifications, and supporting root-cause analysis and resolution of complex hardware and software problems.

The position is designed as onsite, with the expectation that the employee will primarily work from an HPE office. The role requires collaboration with engineering, manufacturing, and field service teams, as well as coordination across multiple engineers and projects. The engineer will maintain lab resources, document test activity and hardware status, and track bugs and issues.

HPE describes benefits supporting physical, financial, and emotional wellbeing, along with programs for personal and professional development and an inclusive workplace. The stated annual base salary range in Texas and Wisconsin is USD 95,800–220,500; actual offers may vary based on location, experience, education, training, and skills. Variable incentives may also be offered.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
• Typically, 4–6 years of experience in test engineering, including bring-up, debugging, and validation of components, complex circuit boards, networks, servers, and systems.
• Understanding of functional, integration, and system-level regression testing.
• Ability to read complex schematics and trace PCB signals using PCB design-file and Gerber-file viewers.
• Ability to perform systematic, methodical board- and system-level debugging, design of experiments, and root-cause analysis.
• Familiarity with the Linux shell, scripting languages, and low-level programming.
• Experience debugging and testing voltage regulator modules and associated hardware.
• Proficiency with lab equipment, including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and power-load tools.
• Familiarity with communication protocols such as I²C, JTAG, and SPI.
• Ability to understand system-level architecture and the detailed functionality of subsystem building blocks.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office productivity and collaboration tools such as SharePoint.
• Knowledge of board hardware and software, and design and test methodologies.
• Familiarity with defect-tracking tools, product lifecycle management tools, and board-design tools.
• Experience creating test-project status reports and metrics, including a test dashboard.
• Experience researching and documenting bug reports after discovering a quality problem.
• Successful track record working with geographically distributed, cross-functional groups.
• Strong organizational, verbal, and written communication skills.

Responsibilities

• Drive and support new-system bring-up, including hardware assembly, visual inspection, power-up, and system validation.
• Collaborate to improve qualification processes for more efficient failure detection, prevention, and resolution.
• Support engineering, manufacturing, and field service teams with root-cause analysis; evaluate proposed fixes and enhancements; conduct experiments; and communicate recommended changes.
• Maintain lab equipment and test resources to high standards while improving lab organization and efficiency.
• Coordinate requirements from multiple engineers while keeping multiple projects moving simultaneously.
• Develop and document test plans, test results, test and lab processes and procedures, proto-hardware and ECO-level tracking, rework history, and current owners and users.
• Archive or database test plans, results, and proto-hardware status in an organized and accessible manner.
• Track and update bugs and issues in a timely and diligent manner.

Benefits

• Health and wellbeing benefits supporting physical, financial, and emotional wellbeing.
• Personal and professional development programs catered to career goals.
