Ability to manage multiple priorities and work independently in a fast-paced, high-growth AI server repair environment.

Nice To Haves

Experience supporting AI servers, enterprise servers, GPU platforms, networking equipment, high-performance computing, or complex electronic systems strongly preferred.
Experience developing test programs for automated test equipment (ATE), flying probe, in-circuit test (ICT), functional test, boundary scan, or similar test platforms.
Experience programming or scripting in C#, Python, C/C++, LabVIEW, or similar languages preferred.
Experience performing test-program validation, correlation, GR&R, test coverage analysis, and test-limit optimization preferred.
Experience with Minitab or similar statistical analysis software preferred.
Knowledge of Lean, Six Sigma, 5S, and structured problem-solving methodologies preferred.

Responsibilities

Provide technical leadership and engineering support for automated and manual test processes used to diagnose, validate, and repair AI servers, GPU assemblies, server motherboards, power systems, networking equipment, storage systems, and other high-performance computing hardware.
Develop, implement, validate, and maintain automated test programs, diagnostic procedures, test scripts, fixtures, and test equipment used throughout the AI server repair process.
Own assigned test processes and serve as the technical subject matter expert for test capability, test coverage, equipment performance, and process effectiveness.
Partner with customers, Quality, and Operations to identify and resolve test-related issues.
Develop test strategies that improve defect detection, reduce false failures, increase first-pass yield, and reduce repair cycle time.
Analyze test results, failure data, and first-pass yield to identify test gaps, recurring failure modes, process variation, and opportunities for improved test coverage.
Configure, maintain, troubleshoot, calibrate, and support repair of test systems, fixtures, cables, probes, instrumentation, and other test equipment.
Support development and implementation of test fixtures, tooling, adapters, automated test equipment, and specialized diagnostic systems for new and existing AI server platforms.
Evaluate repeat-return and warranty data with Quality and Engineering teams to identify systemic test escapes, product defects, and opportunities for improved diagnostics.
Develop closed-loop feedback mechanisms to ensure test results and repair findings are incorporated into test programs, repair procedures, and technician training.
Implement Lean, 5S, and continuous improvement methodologies within test areas to improve workplace organization, equipment utilization, throughput, and process efficiency.
Provide technical guidance and training to Engineering Technicians, Repair Technicians, Test Operators, and trainers on test processes, troubleshooting methods, equipment operation, and new product requirements.
Translate complex technical information into clear procedures, training materials, and troubleshooting guides appropriate for technical and non-technical personnel.
Develop and present test performance reports, KPI dashboards, technical findings, and improvement recommendations to engineering, operations, quality, and customer leadership.
Support customer audits, engineering reviews, NPI activities, product transitions, and technical escalations.
Maintain accurate test data, engineering records, equipment documentation, and test-program revision control.
Work closely with cross-functional teams to accomplish organizational objectives related to quality, throughput, cost, turnaround time, and customer satisfaction.
Perform other engineering projects and duties as assigned.
