## Description

Join the Global Manufacturing Operations team within Cisco’s Supply Chain as a Senior Structural Test Engineer. You will serve as a key technical authority, leading complex test strategy for our global manufacturing footprint.

In this senior-level role, you will define the structural test roadmap that underpins Cisco’s global supply chain. You will be responsible for the architectural integrity of our In-Circuit Test (ICT) and Flying Probe operations, driving strategies that optimize test coverage, improve cycle times, and ensure process consistency at our partner sites.

**Key Responsibilities**

- Act as the technical lead for manufacturing test processes, coordinating technical quality metrics, systemic defect resolution, and sustaining product integrity across multiple global sites.

- Represent structural test in high-level design reviews, setting DfT standards and negotiating probe access and coverage requirements to reduce risk in NPI and production.

- Direct the development and deployment of complex ICT and Flying Probe programs.

- Perform senior-level code reviews and lead global change control processes (ECOs/deviations) for test program source code and manufacturing recipes.

- Lead the integration of advanced On-Board Programming (OBP) strategies and boundary scan (JTAG) flows into the manufacturing line to improve efficiency and test depth.

- Define and promote debug methodologies for manufacturing site test engineers; act as the lead interface between Cisco and external fixture/hardware vendors.

- Champion the adoption of automated workflows, version control standards, and statistical process control (SPC) to drive continuous improvement across the global manufacturing footprint.

**Minimum Qualifications**

- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical field.

- 8+ years of professional experience in structural test development, debug, and release on industry-standard ICT platforms (e.g., Keysight i3070/Series 6 or TRI).

- 5+ years of experience with Flying Probe system development (e.g., SPEA FP4080 or equivalent).

- Demonstrated experience leading end-to-end manufacturing test requirements, including program development, fixture procurement, and factory floor correlation.

- Proven experience leading technical projects or providing technical guidance to multi-functional teams or external manufacturing partners.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Master’s degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related quantitative field.

- Extensive knowledge of DfT principles, including the ability to influence PCBA design and influence CAD/BU teams to adopt test-friendly architectures.

- Advanced programming proficiency in Python, with a history of automating complex manufacturing test workflows.

- Experience with advanced version control and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Git/GitLab) in a hardware testing environment.

- Strong strategic attitude with a track record of influencing partners at various organizational levels to achieve business outcomes with minimal direction.
