Experience in program and project management, leading complex hardware products from NPI through to high-volume Mass Production (MP) launch
Working knowledge of hardware architecture with hands-on experience in the testing and validation of compute and GPU systems
Background in process development, bring-up, and qualification, encompassing Final Assembly, Test, and Packout processes
Experience partnering with stakeholder teams to drive alignment on technical decisions, through proposals, design reviews, or presentations

Nice To Haves

Experience managing relationships with working effectively with international contract manufacturers
Experience of proactively working on issues may not be clearly defined and require strategy and direction
Advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field
Background in reliability engineering methodologies including accelerated life testing and failure mode analysis
Experience working within quality management systems such as ISO 9001 or in a hardware manufacturing environment
Experience with test automation frameworks and manufacturing execution systems (MES)
Experience with data center hardware manufacturing at hyperscale
Experience with GPU architectures, high-performance computing systems, or AI/ML infrastructure hardware

Responsibilities

Own and drive key manufacturing metrics (yield, throughput, cycle time, first-pass rate) across NPI and MP phases, establishing targets and reporting cadences to ensure accountability and continuous improvement
Define, develop, and validate comprehensive manufacturing and test requirements specifically tailored for advanced compute and GPU systems from NPI through to Mass Production (MP)
Continuously evaluate and enhance test coverage, methodologies, and infrastructure to improve hardware reliability and performance at scale against defined targets
Lead complex hardware debugging efforts, actively managing the Major Issue List. Drive root cause analysis and Failure Analysis and Corrective Actions (FACA) to resolve systemic hardware issues and meet defined yield targets
Travel internationally to supplier sites (up to 25%) to manage hardware validation, ensure compliance with defined test requirements, and foster technical partnerships
Partner with cross-functional engineering teams to drive power optimizations and performance tuning for compute and GPU systems during the manufacturing validation phase
Actively manage the technical transition of products from prototype builds to high-volume manufacturing, facilitating critical technical discussions to resolve open design and test issues
