This type of workwork that changes the worldis what the tech industry was founded on. So if youre ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark come join us.
THE ROLE
As a Hardware Validation Engineer at Pure Storage you will ensure the legendary reliability and performance of our next-generation high-performance storage systems. You will serve as the final gatekeeper of hardware integrity bridging the gap between initial design and global manufacturing by driving rigorous board- and system-level validation. Collaborating closely with JDM partners and cross-functional engineering teams your mission is to harden our x86-based platforms against the most demanding enterprise workloads ensuring our customers never have to worry about downtime.
WHAT YOULL DO
- Own the Validation Lifecycle: Design and execute comprehensive validation strategies for x86-based storage platforms moving products from initial design through manufacturing readiness and into sustaining support.
- Architect Automated Workflows: Develop and enhance Python-based automation frameworks to streamline test execution and result reporting increasing the speed and accuracy of hardware qualification.
- Drive System Hardening: Conduct deep-dive failure and root-cause analysis on complex hardware issues transforming raw data from stress tests (PTAT FIO iPerf) into actionable engineering fixes.
- Ensure Supply Chain Resilience: Lead sustaining qualification tests for new components to maintain a robust high-quality production portfolio without compromising system performance.
- Bridge Cross-Functional Gaps: Partner with Operations and Escalation teams to resolve critical field issues acting as the technical authority on hardware behavior across various voltage and temperature corners.
- We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara CA office in compliance with Pures policies unless you are on PTO or work travel or other approved leave.
WHAT YOU BRING
- Platform Expertise: Comprehensive understanding of x86 architectures hardware design principles and enterprise-grade server/storage interfaces.
- Automation Mastery: High proficiency in scripting languages (such as Python or Bash) to automate hardware configurations and complex test development within Linux environments.
- Analytical Problem Solving: A structured data-driven approach to troubleshooting with the ability to distill large datasets from stress workloads into clear technical insights.
- Validation Precision: Extensive experience planning and implementing hardware qualification processes specifically including Ethernet networking and high-speed signal validation.
- Collaborative Drive: A self-motivated mindset with the communication skills necessary to lead vendor partnerships and drive technical issues to closure in a fast-paced development environment.
