Sr. Manufacturing Test Engineer, AWS Rack Mfg Operations

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation

of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the

cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage,

networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have

continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging

problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re

looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply

chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles.

You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest

standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at

the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive

culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

We are seeking a Manufacturing Test Engineer to support final assembly and test

(FA&T) operations for enterprise-class hardware products—including servers,

storage systems, network equipment, and machine learning/AI accelerator

platforms. This role is critical to ensuring world-class quality, throughput,

and on-time delivery across our regional manufacturing network of production

facilities. We work backwards from customers to increase critical capacity for

AWS services by improving yield and reliability while reducing cycle time.

We are seeking a Manufacturing Test Engineer to work in conjunction with

internal partner Hardware Engineering and NPI Test teams to translate testing

methodology and scripts into our operational manufacturing environment. This is

a rare opportunity to shape manufacturing test strategy from the ground up,

directly impacting the speed and quality at which AI infrastructure reaches

customers.

We're looking for a Manufacturing Test Engineer who thrives at the intersection

of hardware, software, and production operations. You'll own the end-to-end

manufacturing test ecosystem — from early prototype builds through high-volume

production and sustaining — across server (L10) and rack-level (L11/L12)

integration. This role requires someone who doesn't just find problems but owns

the fix, builds self-remedy capabilities, and relentlessly drives uptime and

automation.

AWS Rack Manufacturing is a part of the broader AWS Infrastructure Services team

which owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global

infrastructure. We are the teams who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS

data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling

Key job responsibilities

Own and Support the Test Ecosystem: Architect, develop, and maintain the

manufacturing test infrastructure for AI server hardware products, spanning

board-level validation through full rack integration and networking.

Build and Scale Test Software: Design and maintain production test software and

automation frameworks using Python, Bash, and related tooling, including test

sequencing, equipment control, data collection, and reporting pipelines.

Drive Automation & Self-Remedy: Develop automated test processes and

self-healing capabilities that reduce manual intervention, increase throughput,

and improve first-pass yield across the production line.

Define Test Strategy: Establish modular test strategies, define pass/fail

limits, and implement statistical process controls (GR&R, Cp/Cpk, correlation

analysis) to ensure product quality at scale.

Analyze Production Data: Compile and analyze test data using both automated

reporting systems and exploratory analysis techniques to identify trends,

root-cause failures, and drive corrective actions

Own Uptime & Yield: Monitor functional test yield across shifts, lead triage

efforts for test-station failures, and drive weekly production quality reviews

with cross-functional partners.

Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with hardware design, firmware, process

engineering, quality, and operations teams to ensure test requirements are

aligned and products are designed for efficient, high-quality manufacturing.

Guide Fixture & Infrastructure Design: Partner on test fixture design and

procurement, ensuring alignment to cost, scalability, and schedule requirements;

engage in RFQ processes for optimal end-to-end test solutions.

Support New Product Introduction (NPI): Support partner teams in the development

of test solutions for new product builds, from concept prototypes through

production ramp, ensuring readiness at each phase gate.

Sustain & Improve: Provide ongoing support for deployed test systems, implement

configuration changes for new product variants, and maintain comprehensive

documentation of test procedures, specifications, and infrastructure.

Provide Feedback Upstream: Deliver actionable design-for-test (DFT) feedback to

hardware and firmware development teams to improve testability and manufacturing

efficiency for future platforms.
