Jr. Software Development Engineer in Manufacturing Test (Python/Golang)

Title: Junior Software Development Engineer in Manufacturing Test

Location: Santa Clara, CA Onsite

Duration: 6-12 months+ possible conversion to perm

Process: 1^st Rd: 30 min with the manager in-person, 2^nd round with the 2-3 hours onsite with the team, 3^rd may be required if they re not sure and need more rounds to assess.

Ideal Start Date: Not necessarily anything to fill a gap here, looking for the right candidate to join their team (perm-minded mentality)

Background Check Required

Scope: Building test software to help validate high-speed digital designs and achieve high yields in manufacturing our Network products used in the computer networking industry's largest data centers.

The Manufacturing Test team is responsible for developing test scripts for Final System Test of switches, increasing efficiency by automating, debugging test failure, and lastly managing daily support of our products, systems, and tools in manufacturing. The successful candidate will work closely on a project from its early conception to the final stage of testing before it is shipped to a customer. They will work with fellow engineers and members of the Hardware, Platform and Software team to understand the design and support the development of new products and drive design for test excellence. They will also work with customers to add customer specific configurations before shipping the units. They will play a major role in improving yield at the contract manufacturer site as their software will be critical in validating the builds and quickly identify manufacturing defects.

Job responsibilities:

• Support the development of new products and drive design for test excellence.
• Participate on a project team of engineers involved in the specification, design, development, and test of hardware.
• Develop and implement test scripts using scripting language, such as Python and/or GO.
• Develop web GUI interface for production test infrastructure and data mining using Web framework, such as Django and databases,

such as MariaDB.

• Develop Manufacturing test plan based on hardware and platform functional specs.
• Manage purchase, procurement, and release of testing infrastructure to support new and sustaining products.
• Design for DFx : DFC, DFQ, DFM, DFR, DFT.
• Perform new product and sustaining test engineering functions.
• DRT participation and leadership. Actively work with the Defect Reduction Team to identify product issues and drive resolutions.
• Establish technical direction through the investigation and evaluation of new test technologies.
• Improve manufacturing operations test processes and actively enhance efficiency, consistency, cost avoidance, and customer

satisfaction.

• Drive the evaluation and enhancement of the engineering design verification process with the goal of improving test yield and releasing

zero design defects to production.

• Develop test process and best practice documentation in conformance to established manufacturing test processes and procedures.
• Debug complex system level problems and define debug processes for test engineers in manufacturing sites.
• Manufacturing test capacity management, asset, and budget planning and management
• Provides technical support for all systemic defects, Line stops, Material Purges and Quality issues.
• Maintain test programs and scripts at Manufacturing Sites.
• Any experience with Liquid cooling-based manufacturing is a bonus.

Job requirements:

• 1-3+ years of experience in Test Engineering experience (College grads with relevant intern experience will be considered.)
• Strong Object-Oriented programming knowledge Proficiency in Python (currently using) and/or GoLang (migrating) would be a bonus
• Foundational knowledge of Linux systems and networking concepts
• DB query experience (e.g., SQL )
• Experience with version control software like Perforce or Git.
• Basic knowledge of testing concepts
• Knowledge of systems tests for hardware products/networking products would be a plus
• Expertise with web-based GUI interface and data mining using Web framework, (Django experience a plus) and database (MySQL
  experience a plus) nice-to-have.
• BS or MS degree (Computer science, engineering, or-related technical fields) Required.
