Role Summary

Lead the integration of new server, compute, storage, accelerator (GPU/ASIC) and networking hardware into Meta data centers. Drive serviceability requirements, validate deployment tooling at scale, and troubleshoot systematic field failures.

Work with cross-functional hardware, software, tooling and operations teams to develop and execute test strategies and ensure operational readiness for new platforms.

Experience Level

Mid-level — professional role typically requiring 5+ years of relevant systems, hardware validation, or engineering experience.

Responsibilities

Deliverable-focused responsibilities to introduce and validate new hardware platforms in large-scale data centers.

• Lead new product introduction and associated processes for global data center deployment.
• Run architecture and hardware reviews; define diagnostic coverage and serviceability requirements.
• Develop, execute and maintain Data Center tooling validation test plans and readiness activities.
• Engage early with internal and external design teams to influence hardware and tooling architecture.
• Collaborate with Production Engineers, Hardware Validation, Tooling Automation and Data Center Operations to align roadmaps and milestones.
• Work with ODM/OEM vendors to define specifications, development and test plans.
• Capture production lessons learned and convert them into test cases for future platforms.
• Travel domestically and internationally up to ~25%.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience for successful execution in this role.

• 5+ years of system administration, systems engineering, hardware validation testing, or acceptance testing for compute, storage, networking, or AI/ML equipment.
• Experience developing and executing test plans derived from specifications using industry-standard testing tools.
• Hands-on troubleshooting and diagnosis of ASICs, compute, storage or network hardware and familiarity with hardware manufacturing processes.
• Proven experience collaborating with cross-functional and geographically distributed teams to resolve technical issues and align milestones.
• Experience with operational validation methods and verification activities for hardware integration.
• Experience coding in higher-level languages such as Python, C++, Java, or PHP, and learning new software, frameworks and APIs.
• Ability to work with vendors (ODM/OEM) and influence hardware/tooling designs.

Nice-to-have:

• Knowledge of out-of-band/lights-out server methods (IPMI, serial console).
• Test-driven software development experience; familiarity with Linux and SCM tools (git).
• Experience with AI/ML hardware deployment at scale and managing large server installations.
