About the role

Own end-to-end validation of our AI rack-scale systems. You'll take systems from board and tray bring-up to full racks and multi-rack clusters, through L11 rack integration and deployment in the field. That includes accelerator compute trays, host servers, scale-up switches, and the components that tie them together: NICs, retimers, cables, power shelves, busbars, liquid cooling, and rack management. You'll build the plans, environments, and automation that prove our systems work at fleet scale. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in system validation, system integration, or bring-up for servers, accelerators, or rack-scale systems
  • Strong coding skills in Python, C, and C++, plus solid Linux systems experience
  • Experience with BMC (OpenBMC), Redfish, and IPMI
  • Proven system and rack bring-up experience, from first power-on through full validation
  • Experience validating hardware through NPI phases (Proto, EVT, DVT, PVT) and into production
  • Experience working with ODM and CM partners on L6/L10/L11 test content, acceptance criteria, and factory yield
