In this highly visible role as a Diagnostics Engineer, you will:

• Design and develop component and system-level diagnostics software for systems, PCBA, and FPGAs for engineering design validation and for manufacturing testing.
• Author functional diagnostics which provide the highest level of test coverage with fault isolation at the component level.
• Create bring-up utilities to aid in initial hardware validation
• Validate prototype platforms before they are distributed to other cross-functional groups.
• Provide inputs to the hardware team during the design phase and collaborate with HW design, SW development and manufacturing teams.
• Develop and execute detailed test plans to validate diagnostics software.
• Support diagnostics regression testing and diagnostics release testing.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of procedures and practices for high-quality and reliable diagnostic systems.
• Provide diagnostic support for both newly released and legacy products to optimize manufacturing yields.
• Provide diagnostic support for manufacturing test and product sustaining teams.
