Manager, System Product Electronics Failure Analysis Engineering
NVIDIA
We are looking for an engineering manager – system product electronics failure analysis. NVIDIA is seeking an experienced and innovative Engineering Manager to lead the Failure Analysis Networking Switches Engineering team within the System Product Engineering group. This role combines strong technical leadership with hands-on engineering depth and managerial responsibility. You will be accountable for driving engineering excellence in root cause analysis, product quality, reliability, and continuous improvement of NVIDIA’s networking systems.
The position provides deep exposure to NVIDIA’s cutting-edge systems, a system-level view of complex products, and the opportunity to influence product quality across the full lifecycle — from customer feedback and RMA analysis through design, validation, and manufacturing improvements. If you are passionate about engineering-driven quality, leading multidisciplinary technical teams, and delivering world-class networking products, we want to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Lead and manage a team of Failure Analysis engineers, providing technical guidance, mentoring, and professional development while maintaining high engineering standards.
Own and drive the Failure Analysis strategy, including root cause methodologies, test planning, and data-driven decision making across system, board, and component levels.
Define team goals, engineering methodologies, tools, and KPIs, with a strong emphasis on quality, reliability, execution excellence, and continuous improvement.
Lead cross-organizational task forces to address complex quality events, working closely with hardware, software, firmware, validation, manufacturing, and suppliers.
Drive big-data-based quality analysis, correlating customer failures, RMA trends, and production data to identify systemic risks and improvement opportunities.
Serve as a technical escalation and decision authority, ensuring accurate root cause conclusions and effective corrective and preventive actions (CAPA).
Interface directly with customers and internal stakeholders, clearly communicating technical findings, risk assessments, and resolution plans.
Influence product and process improvements, contributing to design for quality, testability, reliability, and robustness in future NVIDIA products.
What We Need to See:
B.Sc./B.Tech in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
3+ years of people management in engineering environments.
8+ overall years of hands-on technical experience in one or more of the following areas:hardware design, system/product engineering, failure analysis, or debugging of complex systems.
Strong background in root cause analysis, test development, and lab-based debugging at system, board, and silicon levels.
Proven ability to lead multidisciplinary engineering teams and cross-functional technical initiatives.
Excellent communication skills with engineers, managers, customers, and manufacturing partners.
High execution standards, analytical mindset, and a structured, methodical approach to problem solving.
Self-driven learner with a passion for engineering innovation and continuous improvement.
Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd:
Experience with high-speed interfaces and signal integrity validation.
Background in system-level or SOC architecture.
Experience as a product engineer, validation engineer, or test engineer.
Familiarity with firmware, diagnostics, and scripting (Python/Perl/C/C++).
Strong Linux experience and data-driven analysis methodologies.
