  • Drive prototyping, qualification, and readiness for high-volume manufacturing with both internal teams and external vendors
  • Identify opportunities for new hardware technologies, testing methods, and sustainability improvements aligned with Crusoe’s long-term objectives
  • Provide data-driven insights to influence Crusoe’s hardware roadmap and reliability strategy

Requirements

  • 8–10+ years of experience in hardware development, validation, sustaining engineering, or production engineering
  • Strong hands-on expertise in PCIe, InfiniBand, and NVMe/storage debugging and development
  • Deep proficiency in hardware bring-up, board-level debugging, and system-level validation
  • Ability to design and implement automation frameworks for hardware testing (Python, Shell, or similar)
  • Technical background in digital and analog design, server architecture, and high-performance compute hardware
  • Experience working across thermal, mechanical, firmware, and software functions in multidisciplinary environments
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven approach
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills for working with internal teams and external partners
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience

Nice to have

  • Experience designing or optimizing GPU-to-GPU communication architectures for AI/ML workloads
  • Direct experience integrating NVLink or other next-generation GPU interconnect technologies
  • Familiarity with cutting-edge GPU architectures and how to leverage them in AI/HPC environments
  • Expertise supporting or designing systems across both ARM and x86 server architectures
  • Background in sustainable or energy-efficient hardware design practices
