## Description

NVIDIA is looking for a HW Mechanical Engineer to join the IC Product Engineering HW team. You will lead the mechanical design and execution of test hardware for NVIDIA's networking and CPO (Co-Packaged Optics) products: test boards, sockets, handler interfaces, system-level test (SLT) mechanical interfaces, and HTOL platforms.

The IC PE HW team ensures these products are tested and qualified for high-volume production. NVIDIA's Networking division delivers industry-leading bandwidth, performance and scalability.

**Responsibilities**

- Design, define and qualify test sockets, contactors, handler change kits and thermal solutions for high-power, high-speed devices, with full ownership of the mechanical specification, mechanical component selection, and mechanical constraints for board layout (keep-out zones, placement, stiffening). Manage the external vendors who supply them, including drawing reviews and design sign-off.

- Lead lab bring-up and debug, and define the thermal and mechanical constraints of test platforms so they deploy efficiently and robustly on the production floor, while meeting high-speed signal integrity requirements.

- Work with the most advanced ATE platforms in the industry, including Teradyne UltraFLEX / UltraFLEXplus and Advantest V93K testers and probers.

- Develop mechanical interfaces for optical systems on production ATE equipment, and define new design concepts for future CPO products.

- Collaborate with R&D and Production teams: board design, system-level test, signal integrity, layout, firmware and test engineering.

- Lead HTOL (High-Temperature Operating Life) hardware platforms for reliability testing.

**Requirements**

- B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering.

- 5+ years of experience as a Mechanical Design Engineer, with hands-on 3D CAD (Creo preferred)

- Proven ownership of projects end-to-end, with the ability to work independently and drive multiple projects and vendors in parallel.

- Understanding of digital circuits, power delivery and high-speed design constraints as they affect mechanical design.

- Strong personal skills: self-learner, multi-disciplinary, able to multitask, with excellent interpersonal skills.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Working alongside a board design team.

- System-level understanding and familiarity with production environments (SLT and final test).

- Hands-on experience with test sockets (pogo pin, coax), ATE handlers, and thermal control (tri-temp).

- Experience with high-power, large-body BGA packages, and with thermal analysis or simulation.

- Experience with optical or fiber interfaces in a test setup.

- Experience managing external mechanical vendors and tooling suppliers, including reviewing and approving manufacturing drawings.

- Strong GD&T and tolerance stack-up skills.

- Experience with HTOL, burn-in or other reliability test hardware.

- Ability to mentor junior engineers.
