Within Cisco's Product Operations, you will join the Manufacturing Test Development team, which ensures that Cisco's complex systems are launched with high standards of quality, efficiency, and scale.
As a Manufacturing Test Development Engineer, you will lead the end-to-end test strategy from Design for Testability (DFT) assessments through mass production readiness. You will drive the development and deployment of board and system-level automated functional test processes at contract manufacturing sites globally, ensuring maximum test coverage and manufacturing efficiency. Additionally, you will develop robust Python-based test automation scripts and leverage data analytics to continuously improve test capacity, yield, and overall product quality. You will serve as an expert resource for product failure analysis and fault isolation, guiding debug processes at both component and system level to accelerate resolution.
Key responsibilities include:
- Leading the end-to-end test strategy from DFT assessments through mass production readiness
- Developing and deploying board and system-level automated functional test processes globally
- Creating robust Python-based test automation scripts
- Improving test capacity, yield, and product quality through data analytics
- Serving as an expert resource for product failure analysis and fault isolation
- Collaborating with global cross-functional teams across Hardware, Software, and Supply Chain
The role requires:
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Electronics & Communication, or Computer Science Engineering
- 5-10 years of relevant experience in product test and validation within a multinational corporate environment
- Strong understanding of hardware development processes and manufacturing test solutions
- Proficiency in Ethernet technologies and hardware protocols
- Advanced Python scripting skills
Preferred qualifications include hands-on experience with test fixtures, traffic test solutions, and experience leading DFT assessments and defining risk mitigation plans.
