Hardware Engineer

$100k - $120k
Full-time

DDN

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Platform Engineer to support the deployment, validation, and operation of large-scale solutions. This role focuses on system bring-up, hardware and firmware validation, and operational reliability across storage, compute, and networking infrastructure.

You will work closely with senior engineers to ensure systems are correctly configured, stable, and performant: from BIOS settings and firmware versions to OS behavior and device health.

What You’ll Do

  • Perform system bring-up and validation, including BIOS configuration, firmware updates, and OS-level checks.

  • Configure and verify platform settings (BIOS, BMC, OS) to ensure systems meet performance, reliability and consistency standards.

  • Execute and validate firmware updates across components, including NVMe drives, NICs, and system firmware.

  • Identify and troubleshoot issues related to:

  • Device initialization and visibility.

  • Firmware mismatches or upgrade failures.

  • Misconfigurations impacting performance or stability.

  • Understand, define and test procedures for:

  • Drive swaps and rebuilds.

  • Data integrity and system health checks.

  • Minimizing impact to running systems.

  • Monitor and validate storage device health, including basic performance characteristics and failure indicators.

  • Work with Linux systems to verify configuration, collect diagnostics, and assist in debugging issues.

  • Collaborate with senior engineers to escalate and help triage complex cross-layer issues.

  • Contribute to documentation and standardization of bring-up, validation, and operational procedures.

What will you bring to DDN

  • 5+ years of experience in systems, infrastructure, or platform-focused engineering roles.

  • Comfortable working directly with hardware and firmware, including BIOS, BMC, and device-level tools.

  • Solid understanding of Linux systems administration and troubleshooting.

  • Familiarity with storage and networking fundamentals (NVMe, NICs, basic I/O concepts).

  • Experience performing and supporting firmware updates, with awareness of risk and failure scenarios.

  • Good scripting skills; familiarity with Go is a plus.

  • Strong attention to detail, able to verify configurations and catch subtle issues.

  • Willingness to learn and grow into deeper system, performance, and debugging responsibilities.

  • Curiosity about why systems perform the way they do: investigate, rather than just run scripts blindly.
