System Test Software Engineer

Supercomputing Engineer (Test) Job Summary We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Supercomputing Engineer (Test) to join our team. This team plays a critical role in ensuring the reliability and stability of our highest-performance inference server hardware and software. As a Software Engineer on this team, you will design, develop, and execute comprehensive burn‑in test suites, analyze test results, and collaborate with hardware and software engineering teams at Etched and our ODM partners to identify and resolve potential issues. You will be at the forefront of ensuring our server products meet the highest quality standards before they reach our customers. Key Responsibilities Design, develop, and implement automated burn‑in test suites using common scripting languages (Python, Go, Bash) and test frameworks across all aspects of system operation including boot sequences, root‑of‑trust, system management, workload deployment and performance. Execute burn‑in tests on server hardware, monitor system performance and health, and analyze test results. Investigate and debug hardware and software failures identified during testing, providing detailed reports and mitigation plans. Collaborate with internal and external hardware and software engineering teams to identify root causes of failures and implement corrective actions. Contribute to the development and maintenance of the burn‑in testing infrastructure, including portable test environments and automation tools runnable in any environment. Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for test plans, test cases, and test results. Analyze system performance metrics to identify potential bottlenecks and areas for optimization. Participate in continuous improvement efforts to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the burn‑in testing process. Representative Projects Develop automated test suites to stress‑test CPUs, memory, storage, and network subsystems under extreme workloads. Design and implement fault injection tests to simulate hardware and software failures. Create tools to monitor and analyze system performance metrics, such as CPU utilization, cross‑socket memory performance and usage, and network latency. Build and maintain a scalable burn‑in testing environment capable of handling multiple server configurations. Collaborate with hardware engineers to develop tests for new server features and components. Contribute to the creation of dashboards that show the current state of burn‑in testing across the server farm. You may be a good fit if you have Proficiency in at least one scripting language (e.g., Python, Bash, Go). Experience with software testing methodologies and tools. Strong understanding of operating systems (Linux preferred) and server hardware architectures. Ability to analyze complex technical problems and provide effective solutions. Excellent communication and collaboration skills. Ability to work independently and as part of a team. Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git). Experience with reading and interpreting hardware logs. Strong candidates may also have Experience with hardware burn‑in testing or reliability testing. Knowledge of server virtualization and cloud computing concepts. Experience with performance testing and benchmarking tools. Familiarity with hardware diagnostic tools and techniques. Experience with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes). Experience with CI/CD pipelines. Knowledge of low‑level hardware communication protocols (i2c, etc.). Experience with data analysis tools and techniques. Candidates with experience in server hardware or software development, testing, or support. A strong interest in hardware and software reliability. A background in system administration or performance engineering. Working in a fast‑paced and challenging environment. Working in a datacenter environment. Telecommunications or high‑performance computing fields. Benefits Medical, dental, and vision packages with generous premium coverage. $500 per month credit for waiving medical benefits. Housing subsidy of $2,000 per month for those living within walking distance of the office. Relocation support for those moving to San Jose (Santana Row). Various wellness benefits covering fitness, mental health, and more. Daily lunch and dinner in our office. #J-18808-Ljbffr Etched.ai, Inc.
