Electrical Hardware Integration / Test Engineer

Job Description:

HPE is seeking a Hardware Test Engineer to work on our HPE Cray line of supercomputing hardware. The Test Engineer will work independently and with other HPE engineers to develop and execute test plans that validate component, board, and system-level electrical hardware. Testing will focus on validating new designs, regression-testing design modifications, and assisting with the root-cause analysis and resolution of complex hardware and software problems.

Responsibilities:

• Drive and support the bring-up activities of new systems, including hardware assembly, visual inspection, power-up, and system validation.
• Collaborate to continually evolve and improve qualification processes to enable more efficient failure detection, prevention, and resolution.
• Support engineering, manufacturing, and field service teams through root-cause analysis; evaluate proposed fixes and enhancements; conduct experiments; and communicate recommended changes.
• Maintain lab equipment and test resources to the highest standards while improving lab organization and efficiency.
• Effectively 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/users.
• Post test plans, results, and proto-hardware status in an efficient, organized, and accessible archive and/or database.
• Track and update bugs and issues in a timely and diligent manner.

Education and Experience:

• 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 the bring-up, debugging, and validation of components, complex circuit boards, networks, servers, and systems.

Knowledge and Skills:

• Understanding of functional, integration, and system-level regression testing.
• Ability to read and understand complex schematics and trace signals on PCBs using PCB design-file and Gerber-file viewers.
• Ability to drive and execute 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 standard communication protocols such as I²C, JTAG, and SPI.
• Ability to understand the high-level architecture of a system, as well as the detailed functionality of its subsystem building blocks.
• Proficiency with the Microsoft Office productivity suite and collaboration tools such as SharePoint.
• Knowledge of board hardware and software, as well as 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 upon discovery of a quality problem.
• Successful track record of working with geographically distributed, cross-functional groups.
• Strong organizational, verbal, and written communication skills.
