Turn board design insight into reliable tests that detect manufacturing defects in Graphcore’s hardware.
As a Senior Board Test Engineer in Bristol, you’ll develop manufacturing tests for Graphcore’s advanced electronic products. You’ll focus on printed circuit board assemblies and the faults that affect their operation.
Your work will help improve defect coverage across the test and inspection tools used by contract electronics manufacturers. You’ll help the team detect and manage hardware faults arising during manufacturing and product use.
You’ll analyse PCB designs for testability and manufacturing risks, then develop boundary scan and embedded functional tests. You’ll also diagnose complex electronic faults down to component level.
The role takes your test solutions beyond development, through deployment and support in factory and field environments.
The Product Test and Diagnosis team detects and manages hardware defects across chips, boards and finished systems. Its work covers manufacturing sites and products in the field.
You’ll work closely with Hardware Design and Manufacturing Operations, linking design analysis with manufacturing test needs. You’ll also work with software, silicon design and external board test partners on complex hardware problems.
While we have outlined a set of requirements, we value transferable skills and diverse experiences. We also welcome engineers returning to the profession after a career break, including through returnship routes.
We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to building an inclusive environment where everyone can do their best work.
