You'll join the Product Test and Diagnosis team within Manufacturing Operations. The team defines and delivers test strategies across silicon, boards, server systems, and rack-scale platforms.
Day to day, you'll work closely with engineers across hardware, firmware, software, manufacturing, and quality. Decisions are driven by technical evidence, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
You'll have the freedom to lead technically, mentor other engineers, and influence how manufacturing test evolves across globally distributed teams.
Extensive experience developing and deploying manufacturing test solutions for high-performance servers, accelerators (GPU-class), or comparable large-scale  compute  hardware.  
Proven technical leadership as an individual contributor, owning architecture and driving alignment across multiple teams without direct line management responsibility.  
Deep technical understanding across silicon, board, and system design sufficient to define effective manufacturing test coverage and lead complex debug/root-cause analysis.  
Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with experience driving requirements and delivery with internal software/firmware/platform teams to enable testability and diagnosability.  
Hands-on experience using Linux,  OpenBMC , and vendor-specific test tools, diagnostics, and system-level utilities to test hardware in lab and manufacturing environments.  
Strong software engineering skills with scripting and automation (e.g., Python, Bash, or similar), including building reliable test infrastructure and integrating heterogeneous test content.  
Familiarity with rack-scale/multi-node systems, high-speed interconnects, and production qualification of complex assemblies.  
Experience improving manufacturing KPIs (yield, test time, false fail reduction) through data-driven test optimisation and robust statistical/diagnostic approaches.  
Knowledge of open-source tools commonly used for manufacturing test, system bring-up, and hardware diagnostics.  
Experience designing testability/diagnosability features into products (e.g., telemetry, self-test hooks, debug interfaces) in partnership with design teams.  
is building the compute platform for the next generation of artificial intelligence. From advanced silicon to intelligent software, our technology is designed to unlock breakthroughs in AI and bring its benefits to every industry.
As part of the SoftBank Group, we’re backed by one of the world’s most ambitious technology investors, working alongside companies shaping the future of AI. Together, we share a bold goal: to help enable artificial superintelligence and ensure it delivers meaningful impact at a global scale.
At , you’ll work with people who are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Our teams bring together AI researchers, chip designers, software engineers and systems experts from a wide range of backgrounds. It’s an environment where we take on big challenges with curiosity and focus, move quickly and decisively, take real ownership of our work, and speak up to challenge ideas, stepping up to support each other and lead through action.
If you want to lead the engineering behind manufacturing test for advanced AI hardware and help deliver quality at scale, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now to join .
