The successful candidate will partner with Product Engineering, Test Engineering, Platform, Diagnostics, Design, Quality, Operations, manufacturing, and OSAT teams to

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience in System Level Test, product engineering, test engineering, platform validation, silicon debug, or manufacturing test support.
• Experience owning debug activities during silicon bring-up, NPI, qualification readiness, production ramp, and sustaining support.
• Knowledge of SLT test flows, diagnostics, BIOS/OS/firmware dependencies, platform readiness, failure logging, automation, and release package validation.
• Ability to isolate complex system-level failures using structured experiments, data analysis, reproduction methods, and cross-functional debug plans.

Responsibilities

• Own SLT debug execution across bring-up, NPI, production ramp, and sustaining phases, triaging issues to closure.
• Drive structured debug of SLT failures across test content, flow, platform, diagnostics, BIOS/OS/firmware, hardware, and manufacturing interactions.
• Lead first-pass triage, failure reproduction, isolation experiments, data collection, and root-cause determination.
• Partner with Product Engineering, Test Engineering, Platform, Diagnostics, Design, Quality, Operations, manufacturing, and OSAT teams to resolve blockers.
• Analyze yield, failure Pareto, first-test-rate, repeatability, and test time to identify priorities and risks.
• Support SLT bring-up readiness by validating test flows, platform stability, data logging, automation, and release package completeness.
• Drive debug closure for NPI issues impacting qualification, release readiness, manufacturing ramp, yield, or customer commitments.
• Provide sustaining debug support for production excursions, flow instability, and OSAT issues.
• Document findings, containment actions, root-cause status, and recommended improvements.
