Description

Join NVIDIA's team as a Factory Bring-up Engineer and play a critical role in the development and deployment of AI computing systems.

As a Factory Bring-up Engineer, you will be responsible for bringing up new platforms in the factory, designing and implementing software flows, and working with partners to integrate NVIDIA tools into their infrastructure.

Responsibilities:

  • Own bring-up of new platforms in the factory across every level: board, tray, rack, and cluster
  • Design the flows that run in the factory: firmware flashing, version validation, security provisioning, and power-cycle recovery and retry handling
  • Take NVIDIA tools into partner factories and work with ODMs, CMs, OEMs, and CSPs to define requirements, integrate NVIDIA tools into their infrastructure, and validate them
  • Make AI part of how the team builds, using AI coding agents to speed up development, testing, code review, log triage, and bug filing
  • Be the one who unblocks the line, tracing failures across hardware and software stacks to find and fix the root cause

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience in data center firmware, platform software, or factory/manufacturing test software
  • BS, MS, or PhD in EE, CS, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
  • Proven track record building factory or data center automation and out-of-band management for large-scale server deployments
  • Strong Python skills and working knowledge of C/C++, shell, and Linux systems
  • Solid knowledge of hardware interfaces and debugging servers during early bring-up
  • Experience working directly with ODMs, CMs, or CSPs during NPI, bring-up, and volume production
  • Strong communicator and collaborator who does well with ambiguity and owns problems end-to-end

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with rack-scale or multi-node GPU systems
  • Familiarity with manufacturing diagnostic frameworks and factory test stations
  • Experience designing resilient factory flows that improve first-pass yield and reduce line downtime
