About the role
- Our technology protects the world's most critical infrastructure-from data centers to next generation cloud and AI platforms-by securing systems at the foundation levels of hardware, independent of host CPUs and operating systems.
- We value curiosity, execution, respect, and a shared desire to make a meaningful impact on the security and reliability of the digital world.
- If you're driven to innovate, energized by hard problems, and excited to help define the future of secure AI infrastructure, we invite you to apply and join us on this journey.
Responsibilities
- Test Design & Execution: Design and execute comprehensive test plans for performance benchmarking, stress testing, longevity/endurance testing, and thermal/power characterization of TCU/BMC systems.
- Reliability Validation: Conduct Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) prediction, long-duration stability tests, and error injection campaigns to validate system robustness.
- Root Cause Analysis: Lead the deep-dive investigation of performance degradation and reliability failures. Use advanced debugging tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, firmware traces) to isolate issues.
- Infrastructure Enhancement: Develop and maintain automated performance testing frameworks and reporting dashboards to track regression and trends over time.
- In this role, you will own the test design, execution, and deep-dive analysis for performance and reliability, working closely with development teams to identify bottlenecks and resolve complex system-level issues.
Requirements
- Performance Tools: Proficiency with performance profiling tools, traffic generators, and standard benchmarks (e.g., SPEC, IOzone, iperf).
- Experience with thermal and power measurement tools.
- Tools: Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI) and version control (Git).
- Experience with AI-driven log analysis or anomaly detection tools to predict reliability issues.
- Experience with data center server architecture and thermal management.
- Knowledge of industry reliability standards (e.g., Telcordia, JEDEC).
- 5+ years of experience in embedded system testing, with a strong focus on performance verification and reliability engineering.
