Description
As a Senior Board Test Engineer in Bristol, you'll develop manufacturing tests for Graphcore's advanced electronic products, focusing on printed circuit board assemblies and faults affecting their operation.
Your work will help improve defect coverage across test and inspection tools used by contract electronics manufacturers, detecting and managing hardware faults arising during manufacturing and product use.
You'll analyse PCB designs for testability and manufacturing risks, then develop boundary scan and embedded functional tests. You'll also diagnose complex electronic faults down to component level.
The role takes your test solutions beyond development, through deployment and support in factory and field environments.
The Product Test and Diagnosis team detects and manages hardware defects across chips, boards, and finished systems, covering manufacturing sites and products in the field.
You'll work closely with Hardware Design and Manufacturing Operations, linking design analysis with manufacturing test needs. You'll also work with software, silicon design, and external board test partners on complex hardware problems.
We're looking for:
- Strong electronics fundamentals and experience in manufacturing test for advanced electronic systems.
- Understanding of PCB manufacturing, surface-mount assembly, failure mechanisms, and automated optical and X-ray inspection capabilities.
- Experience developing JTAG 1149 boundary scan test solutions.
- Awareness of bed-of-nails testing (ICT/MDA) and high-volume in-system or on-board programming techniques (ISP/OBP).
- Ability to solve problems in complex electronic systems and diagnose defects down to component level.
- Clear communication and the ability to work with internal engineering teams and external board test partners.
Benefits include:
- Flexible working
- Generous leave
- Retirement planning support: up to 5% matched pension
- Phantom equity
- Workplace experience: thoughtfully designed office spaces with free food and an on-site barista
- Peace of mind protection: income protection and life assurance
