Requires on-call availability and travel to data center sites.

Validate server hardware components and new platform designs through power, thermal, performance, firmware, and automation testing. Maintain hardware test infrastructure, document technical findings, coordinate with ODM/OEM partners, and collaborate with software teams on BIOS, kernel, and firmware optimization. The role requires expertise in server architectures, validation methodologies, Linux, Python, Bash, Redfish, IPMI, and industry standards including PCIe, NVMe, and DDR.

Develop and own compute and GPU server platforms from architecture through global deployment. Responsibilities include schematic and layout reviews, design for manufacturability, new product introduction, board and system bring-up, validation, debugging, firmware and BIOS feature management, technology qualification, and vendor coordination. The role requires hands-on server architecture, board-level design, Linux and scripting expertise, platform validation, and five-day-per-week presence in the Cambridge office.

Design and deliver complex FPGA and CPLD systems using RTL, integrated IP, simulations, timing closure, and lab debugging. Collaborate with clients and cross-functional engineering teams on architectures spanning video, communications, storage, signal processing, and other advanced applications. Support design reviews, prototype demonstrations, documentation, technical estimates, proposals, and customer implementation. The role requires strong FPGA tool-flow expertise, communication skills, and customer presence.

The SOC Architect will lead the development of high-performance SoCs, defining security features, and collaborating with product teams and customers to deliver system IPs.

Lead calibration architecture, optical integration, sustaining, troubleshooting, and manufacturing enablement for high-speed coherent optical linecards. Analyze calibration and test data, resolve production and field issues, develop lab-to-factory bring-up workflows, and collaborate with DSP, hardware, firmware, test, and manufacturing teams. Mentor optical engineers, communicate technical risks and trade-offs, and apply coherent optics expertise to current and next-generation platforms.

The role involves optimizing hardware support within a software stack for AI model deployment, collaborating with teams and hardware vendors to enhance performance and portability across platforms.

Designs complex multilayer PCBs, cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and interconnect systems for humanoid robots. Responsibilities include Altium-based layout, high-speed and power integrity considerations, 3D ECAD/MCAD integration, DFM/DFA optimization, design reviews, production support, and collaboration with mechanical engineers, fabricators, assembly houses, and vendors.

Design complex printed circuit board layouts meeting mechanical, electrical, RF, mixed-signal, and manufacturing requirements. Plan project resources, communicate progress with customers, resolve technical issues, track project activities, and support on-time delivery. Collaborate remotely with multidisciplinary design teams, apply IPC standards, use PCB layout tools, and advocate for customers while maintaining high quality and workmanship.

Provides remote technical support for PerkinElmer atomic spectroscopy instruments across North America. Diagnoses complex hardware, software, and application issues; guides customers and field engineers through repairs; identifies root causes, parts, and corrective actions; documents service activity; supports first-time fixes, training, mentoring, technical communications, and operational improvements. Requires expert repair-level experience with atomic spectroscopy platforms, including at least two of AA, ICP-OES, and ICP-MS.
