Systems Engineering TechnicianActive$180K–$240K

The opportunity

Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services.

What you'll do

  • Mechanical Assembly & Integration: Build, assemble, and align complex mechanical systems consisting of large and small components, precision hardware, and multistage assemblies.

  • Electrical Testing & Troubleshooting: Perform electrical diagnostics, continuity checks, power testing, and root-cause analysis on wiring, PCBs, sensors, and control systems.

  • Water-Cooled System Support: Install, test, and maintain water-cooled subsystems, including pumps, manifolds, flow sensors, and leak-detection components.

  • Prototype & Lab Operations: Execute hands-on work in a lab environment with minimal direction, often using incomplete drawings or evolving engineering inputs.

  • Instrumentation & Data Collection: Set up test equipment, log performance data, and provide clear feedback to engineering teams.

  • Documentation & Process Improvement: Create or refine build instructions, test procedures, and troubleshooting guides. Open issue tickets with clear observations, supporting data, and recommended next steps.

What they're looking for

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with mechanical, electrical, and systems engineers to validate designs, identify issues, and propose practical solutions.
  • Safety & Compliance: Maintain safe working practices around high-voltage systems, rotating equipment, pressure systems, and thermal management hardware.
  • + years of hands-on experience as an engineering technician in mechanical,: electrical, or multidisciplinary hardware environments.
  • Proven ability to work independently with minimal supervision in a dynamic R&D or prototype lab setting.
