ManufacturingTestEngineer

ABOUT THE TEAM: OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops silicon and system-level solutions designed for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. The team is responsible for building the next generation of AI-native silicon while working closely with software and research partners to co-design hardware tightly integrated with AI models. In addition to delivering production-grade silicon for OpenAI’s supercomputing infrastructure, the team also creates custom design tools and methodologies that accelerate innovation and enable hardware optimized specifically for AI. ABOUT THE ROLE We are seeking a Manufacturing Test Engineer to own and drive manufacturing test strategy, development, and execution for complex AI hardware systems. This role will define and implement test coverage across the product lifecycle, including ICT, functional circuit test, tray-level functional test, and system manufacturing test. You will work closely with hardware design engineering, diagnostic/software teams, manufacturing engineering, quality, and external system integrators and suppliers to translate product requirements into robust, scalable, and production-ready test solutions. You will also play a key role in reviewing test data, debugging failures, improving yield, and ensuring manufacturing test readiness from early development through volume production. IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL: - Define and drive the manufacturing test strategy for boards, trays, and system-level hardware assemblies across EVT, DVT, PVT, and production ramp. - Develop and manage test coverage for: - ICT / structural test - FCT / board-level functional test - Tray-level functional and integration test - System-level manufacturing and bring-up test - Partner closely with electrical engineering, system engineering, and diagnostic/software teams to define test requirements, review manufacturing test scripts and diagnostics, validate failure isolation needs, debug hooks, logging, and production screening strategies. -
