Hardware Systems Engineer, NPI AI

Meta is seeking a Hardware Systems Engineer to support the new product introduction (NPI) of next-generation AI and high-performance computing infrastructure for large-scale data center deployments. In this role, you will work at the intersection of AI silicon, server systems, and data center operations, partnering with hardware design, firmware, software, networking, and capacity engineering teams to validate and scale cutting-edge AI hardware systems from early bring-up through production readiness.

### Hardware Systems Engineer, NPI AI Responsibilities:

• Lead end-to-end system validation strategies for AI and HPC hardware platforms, including AI accelerators, GPU clusters, and high-bandwidth memory subsystems in data center environments
• Drive hands-on bring-up, characterization, and validation of AI server systems and associated components such as PCIe, NVLink, DRAM, and high-speed networking fabrics
• Develop and maintain test specifications, validation procedures, and debug guides tailored to AI infrastructure NPI programs
• Investigate and root-cause complex system failures spanning silicon, firmware, software, and hardware layers in collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams
• Triage and track hardware and firmware defects through resolution while maintaining forward progress on NPI program milestones
• Identify gaps in test coverage and drive improvements to test methodologies, tooling, and automation frameworks across the NPI lifecycle
• Partner with AI platform and capacity engineering teams to define acceptance criteria and deployment readiness standards for new AI hardware systems
• Guide data collection, analysis, and reporting efforts to surface systemic hardware quality trends and inform go/no-go decisions for production deployment
• Communicate validation status, risk assessments, and technical findings to internal engineering teams and external hardware vendors
• Collaborate with firmware and software team...
