We are at the forefront of software and hardware innovation, pushing the boundaries of what is possible. Our culture is one of respect and collaboration. We value humility and believe in direct communication. Our team is inclusive, and our differing perspectives allow for better solutions. We are seeking individuals passionate about tackling challenges and are driven by execution.  Ready to come find your playground? Together, we can help shape the endless possibilities of AI. ## Role Overview We are seeking a Staff Manufacturing Test Engineer to own the development, implementation, and deployment of manufacturing functional test modules for d-Matrix PCIe accelerator cards and next-generation server tray products. This is a technical leadership role within the Operations Test Engineering team, working closely with Test Automation Engineers, Manufacturing Quality Engineers (MQE), and our JDM manufacturing partners. As a staff-level engineer, you will set the technical direction for manufacturing test strategy, mentor engineers on the team, and drive architectural decisions that scale across product generations. ## Responsibilities Test Development & Execution - Develop and implement board-level functional test modules for Corsair PCIe accelerator cards, covering power-on sequencing, firmware load, PCIe link training and enumeration, functional validation, and stress/burn-in. - Architect the manufacturing test strategy for the upcoming server platforms, including system-level integration tests, BMC/IPMC firmware validation, and multi-card test orchestration. - Develop test plans, regression requirements, and test coverage assessments aligned with the Manufacturing Test Requirements plan across the full product lifecycle. Test Infrastructure & Scalability - Design a scalable, maintainable test implementation strategy with a focus on automation, standardization, and continuous improvement that reduces manual effort across product generations. - Analyze test data to optimize manufacturing test efficiency, reduce test times, and identify yield-limiting patterns. Quality & Cross-Functional Collaboration - Partner with the MQE team to drive root cause analysis and corrective action for failures during customer POCs and hardware integrations. - Collaborate with Product Quality Engineering on new product introductions and develop test solutions to enable new technology and form factors. Manufacturing Partner Engagement - Deploy new test capabilities at manufacturing sites and provide hands-on training to manufacturing partner teams. - Triage floor failures. - On-call support for keeping the floor running. ## Minimum Qualifications - BS in electrical engineering, computer science, computer engineering, or a related technical discipline. - 10+ years of experience developing and deploying manufacturing test software in a high-volume hardware manufacturing environment. - Direct experience with PCIe card, NIC, GPU, or server/storage hardware manufacturing tests at the board level. - Strong knowledge of PCIe protocol fundamentals, board-level power sequencing, and functional test methodologies. - Proficiency in Python for test automation and data analysis. - Experience with Linux/Unix environments, shell scripting, and command-line debug tools. - Familiarity with manufacturing test infrastructure, including test fixtures, JTAG/boundary scan, and in-system test methodologies. - Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives, make architectural decisions, and influence cross-functional teams without direct authority. ## Preferred Qualifications - Experience with high-volume manufacturing floor operations at scale (100K+ units/year). - Familiarity with OCP hardware specifications or hyperscaler hardware design standards. - Experience with BMC/IPMC firmware validation, Redfish management interfaces, or server tray-level integration tests. - Proficiency with test data infrastructure, statistical analysis tools (JMP, Minitab, or Python-based equivalents), and SPC/SQC methodologies. - Demonstrated use of quality tools and methodologies (8D, FMEA, DOE, fishbone analysis) in a manufacturing or engineering environment. - Track record of scaling test strategies from card-level to system-level products. ## Equal Opportunity Employment Policy d-Matrix is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and affirmative action employer.
