Descrição da vaga

Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) builds the products that power infrastructure, solutions, and data management our customers need most. Our teams design and develop the hardware and software that connect infrastructure, accelerate computational workloads, integrate across the stack, protect data continuity, and deliver the platforms, applications, and diagnostics our customers rely on every day at enterprise scale.

Some product builders follow the rules. Ours rewrite them.

Within ISG, innovation isn't just about creating new technology- it's about challenging assumptions and reimagining how work gets done. Engineers define intent, author precise specifications, and orchestrate AI agents that execute at speed and scale. AI is embedded throughout our development process, helping us move faster, learn quicker, and deliver greater impact. Yet the most important contribution remains uniquely human: deciding what to build, designing how it should work, and applying the judgment needed to earn our customers' trust. When your products power critical infrastructure around the world, that responsibility matters.

We move quickly toward the work that matters most. We reward experimentation, encourage bold thinking, and remove unnecessary barriers so great ideas can become reality faster. Our teams embrace a customer-first, first-to-market mindset, transforming rapid feedback into better products and better outcomes. We aren't looking for people who are content with the status quo- we look for builders who question it, improve it, and occasionally rewrite it.

If you're energized by solving complex systems challenges, excited to work alongside AI to amplify your impact, and motivated by the opportunity to shape what's next instead of simply maintaining what's been done before, you'll find your place here.

Join us and help build the future of enterprise technology todo the best work of your career and make a profound social impact as a Senior Principal Engineer on our Mechanical Engineering team in Round Rock, Texas.

What you'll achieve:

As a Mechanical Reliability Senior Principal Engineer, you will be a vital member of our cross-functional engineering team and will be instrumental in delivering advanced solutions for AI, HPC, and enterprise server markets. Your primary responsibility will be to ensure exceptional reliability by collaborating on design tradeoffs that also optimize time-to-market, cost, manufacturability and serviceability.

Responsibilities

You will:

• Develop innovative concepts and establish feasibility
• Bring a "Design For" (DFx) mindset to identify and mitigate potential reliability issues
• Conduct reliability analyses to identify potential failure modes and their impact
• Develop and execute validation protocols including accelerated life, environmental and stress testing
• Perform root cause analysis and work with engineering teams to implement corrective actions
