Job summary

MatX is building a silicon-centric compute platform for AGI with a focus on high-performance, scalable hardware and software. We seek a Diagnostic Engineer to own end-to-end diagnostics for accelerator boards and racks, collaborating with JDM/ODM partners to ensure robust manufacturing and deployment at scale.

In this hybrid role based in Mountain View, you will develop tools for AI chips, PCIe, HBM, power, and thermal, define pass/fail criteria, and drive CI/CD for the diagnostics stack while

Qualifications

• 7+ years in systems diagnostics, hardware validation, or manufacturing test.
• Expert in Python and C/C++ for test automation and low-level device programming.
• Deep knowledge of PCIe, memory hierarchies, power management, and I/O.
• Proven experience managing test relationships with ODM/JDM or CM partners.
• Experienced building and scaling test automation frameworks from the ground up.
• Proficient with Linux system tools for hardware interrogation and fault analysis.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end diagnostics test suite for accelerator boards and racks.
• Develop diagnostic tools covering the AI chip, PCIe, HBM, power, and thermal.
• Define test coverage and pass/fail criteria for manufacturing screening.
• Enable JDM/ODM partners with documentation, tooling, and hands-on debug support.
• Support partners technically through NPI and production ramp phases.
• Triage and root-cause manufacturing test escapes and field failures.
• Build and maintain CI/CD infrastructure for the diagnostics software stack.
• Track quality metrics — yield, test coverage, defect density — and report out.
