Data Center Hardware Engineering - Hardware System Integration Engineer.

The Data Center Hardware Engineering team is looking for an electrical integration engineer to work on projects from design conception to mass production. This is a highly cross-functional role which requires balancing the needs and priorities of many other teams such as mechanical, power, software, firmware, silicon design, hardware validation, and reliability engineering. Come join us!

Description

The EE integration team is responsible for the design, specification and realization of high-performance compute solutions supporting customer’s specific requirements. This is a design and validation position that entails owning electrical engineering implementation, documentation, and validation of customized compute designs.

The ideal candidate has electrical systems integration experience with emphasis in high-speed digital design using high-performance silicon. Day-to-day tasks involve electrical design, schematic capture, board layout guidance, simulation, bringup, debug, and validation. Routine responsibilities also include factory build support, and multi-disciplinary cross-functional collaboration and negotiation where strong documentation and communications skills are critical.

We are looking for candidates with a broad set of skill and interests, strong work ethic, and the curiosity to dig deep wherever necessary to solve challenging problems. In addition to technical capability, we prize curiosity, creativity, integrity, collaboration, and a passion for learning.
