  • Install, cable, and power-on prototype hardware in the lab, flash early firmware/BIOS/BMC images, and partner with software teams to ensure successful boot, OS installation, and network connectivity.
  • Design and implement precise calibration procedures for precision electronics test equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, DMMs) to drive ISO 17025 compliance.
  • Write and maintain automation scripts (Python or Bash) to streamline calibration routines, data collection, and test execution, while analyzing telemetry data to establish baselines.
  • Oversee the procurement, distribution, calibration tracking, and lifecycle management for a large-scale fleet of specialized laboratory test equipment.
  • Document hardware errata, provide actionable root-cause analysis, and draft reproducible SOPs for bring-up sequences and troubleshooting guides for internal teams and external ODMs/JDMs.
