## Description

We are seeking a graduate engineer to help drive server blade and rack level system validation efforts for next-generation AI infrastructure hardware systems. This role focuses on post-silicon system validation across the full lifecycle of server hardware systems, ensuring functional and performance meets product objectives. You will help drive end-to-end blade and rack validation including development, execution, and debug while collaborating across silicon, firmware, systems, and platform teams.

The Blade and Rack Validation team is responsible for ensuring system readiness and quality at scale. The team works cross-functionally with firmware, silicon, and system engineering teams to validate complex AI compute platforms.

What You'll Do

 * Help drive and execute post-silicon validation goals of AI compute blades and racks including test case planning, development, and automation

 * Help drive validation test case execution and system debug against program achievements and report validation progress and risks.

 * Drive provisioning and integration of system components (SoC FW, BMC, RMC, OS) for rack-level readiness
 * Triage test failures, collect debug data, and collaborate on root cause analysis.
 * Track validation coverage and continuously improve test processes and infrastructure.
