About the Job
Job Title: Hardware Design Engineer
Job Location: Mountain view, CA (Hybrid)
Job Duration: 4 months of contract on W2 (High Chances for extension)
Job Summary:
The main function of a hardware engineer is to research, design, develop, test computer or computer-related equipment for commercial, industrial, military, or scientific use.
A typical hardware engineer is responsible for the manufacture and installation of computer or computer-related equipment and components.
Typical Day in the Role:
" Purpose of the Team: The purpose of this team is a focus on power performance modeling, projections for Braga Silicon projects.
" Key projects: AI silicon dev is part of architecture team focus on power modeling. Work will be working on helping power modeling efforts by building automation and driving base scenarios and doing sanity check on power modeling. Other task is looking at data mining the design. Understand how the model is working.
" Typical task breakdown and operating rhythm: The role will consist of 20% meetings, 40% heads down, 40% coding/automation.
Job Responsibilities:
" Analyze information to determine plan layout, including type of computers and peripheral equipment modifications.
" Assemble and modify existing pieces of equipment to meet special needs.
" Build, test, and modify product prototypes using working models or theoretical models constructed with computer simulation.
" Evaluate factors such as reporting formats required, cost constraints, and need for security restrictions to determine hardware configuration.
" Monitor functioning of equipment and make necessary modifications to ensure system operates in conformance with specifications.
Skills:
" Creativity, verbal and written communication skills, analytical and problem-solving ability.
" Team player and detail oriented.
