TL;DR · Data Center GPU Board Power Validation Engineer

The Data Center GPU Board Power Validation Engineer joins the Data Center GPU Systems Design and Enablement team to support AI and HPC domains. This role involves orchestrating end-to-end system validation plans to stress products and identify vulnerabilities in baseboard signaling, system management, PCIe, and motherboard debug. The engineer will perform board measurements for signal integrity, execute functional and stress test plans, and lead root cause analysis for hardware and firmware issues. Key technical requirements include experience with power delivery, PDN, multi-phase buck regulators, PMICs, and OCP standards. Candidates must utilize lab equipment like oscilloscopes and protocol analyzers while applying knowledge of C/C++, Perl, Ruby, or Python. The work focuses on ensuring robust system-level integration and reliability for high-performance GPU and APU solutions.

What you'll do

  • Orchestrate and implement advanced validation strategies to stress systems and identify product weaknesses.
  • Perform board measurements for signal integrity and overall functional validation.
  • Lead technical validation initiatives for PCIe, HBM, and SMC/BMC firmware to identify vulnerabilities.
  • Create and execute validation test plans for both functional and stress scenarios.
  • Ensure compliance with OCP standards, including Out of Band Management and Redfish features.
  • Perform root cause analysis and debug hardware, firmware, and integration issues discovered during validation.
  • Develop end-to-end validation test content using creative debugging skills and innovative approaches.
  • Work with development teams to rectify all identified issues before production.

What we're looking for

  • Experience in motherboard behavior regarding signal integrity, components, buses, protocols, and systems design engineering.
  • Ability to orchestrate end-to-end system validation plans and develop advanced validation strategies for AI and HPC domains.
  • Experience performing board measurements for signal integrity and functional validation.
  • Experience with PCIe, HBM, and SMC/BMC firmware technical validation.
  • Knowledge of OCP standards, Out of Band Management, and Redfish features.
  • Experience with lab equipment such as protocol/logic analyzers and oscilloscopes (preferred).
  • Experience with power supply architectures, PDN, and multi-phase regulators in server and PCIe environments (preferred).
  • Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering (preferred).
