The opportunity
OpenAI's Industrial Compute organization is building the world's most advanced AI infrastructure ecosystem. We work closely with hardware design teams, manufacturing partners, suppliers, and data center operations to deliver the compute platforms that power frontier AI.
What you'll do
Own sustaining manufacturing engineering for PCBA production across multiple hardware platforms.
Drive root cause investigations for manufacturing defects, field failures, and production escapes.
Partner with Hardware Design Engineers to improve manufacturability (DFM/DFA/DFT).
Support engineering change orders (ECOs) and manufacturing change implementation.
Work directly with contract manufacturers to improve production yield, cycle time, and quality.
Analyze manufacturing data to identify recurring process issues and improvement opportunities.
What they're looking for
- Develop corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) for manufacturing and supplier quality issues.
- Support failure analysis activities including electrical, functional, and process investigations.
- Improve manufacturing documentation, work instructions, assembly processes, and test procedures.
- Collaborate with Test Engineering to improve production test coverage and manufacturing diagnostics.
