TL;DR · Hardware Engineer 3

The Hardware Engineer 3 joins the Hardware Sustaining group to investigate and remediate critical hardware issues for flagship networking products. This role involves leading failure analysis for field and factory issues, documenting root cause findings, and driving corrective actions to improve hardware quality in future product generations. The engineer will analyze quality metrics, review test reports, and manage multi-sourcing and change management activities. Key technical requirements include expertise in debugging hardware using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and networking test equipment like IXIA or Spirent. Candidates must possess PCB design experience with Cadence tools and knowledge of switch ASICs, PHY, SerDes, and high-speed serial links. The role requires deep knowledge of signal and power integrity concepts to solve complex hardware problems within the networking product domain.

What you'll do

  • Lead failure analysis for critical hardware issues reported from the field and factory.
  • Determine and document root cause findings and corrective actions (RCCA).
  • Extract and share lessons learned to drive hardware quality improvements for future products.
  • Analyze hardware quality metrics and repair center findings to identify failure trends.
  • Provide technical leadership for multi-sourcing and change management on shipping products.
  • Review hardware test reports for new products to identify and resolve quality concerns.
  • Collaborate with manufacturing, operations, and customer support teams to address hardware concerns.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical, Electronics, or Computer Engineering.
  • 8+ years of hardware design, debug, and testing experience at the board and system level.
  • Expertise in debugging hardware using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and networking test equipment like IXIA/Spirent, PCI analyzers, and in-circuit emulators.
  • PCB design experience including schematic capture, layout, and routing, with familiarity with Cadence System Design tool suite.
  • Knowledge of networking hardware components including switch ASICs, PHY, SerDes, CPU subsystems, optics, high-speed serial links, PoE, PCIe, NVMe, SATA, I2C, and USB.
  • Expertise in high-speed circuit design and debug, including signal and power integrity concepts and simulation tools.
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent priorities and drive hardware debug and design projects to closure.
  • Experience in FPGA design and debug with Verilog HDL and simulation tool suites (preferred).
