About this role

AI Infrastructure Hardware Engineer is an on-site server testing and quality control position based in Hong Kong with Pragmatike for professionals experienced in GPU server manufacturing. This role suits engineering candidates with strong Linux and firmware backgrounds who prefer a hands-on physical lab and factory floor environment over remote desk work.

Role Overview

Pragmatike is hiring an AI Infrastructure Hardware Engineer on behalf of a European deep-tech enterprise that creates energy-efficient sovereign cloud infrastructure. The hiring organization designs and builds proprietary high-performance computing hardware end to end, spanning individual boards to containerized systems. This position operates on a hybrid schedule out of manufacturing sites, test labs, and factory floors in Hong Kong, requiring an immediate start date.

Key Responsibilities

Direct quality control operations across manufacturing facilities on the factory floor.
Manage the hardware testing laboratory by performing board bring-up, validation, and stress evaluations for fresh server builds.
Monitor assembly processes and comprehensive testing phases for GPU servers prior to cloud deployment.
Establish and preserve quality checkpoints, testing methodologies, and acceptance standards for systems, boards, and chassis.
Troubleshoot hardware, driver, and firmware anomalies spanning power, thermals, PCIe, BIOS/BMC, and GPU firmware while leading root-cause investigations alongside manufacturing and design divisions.
Verify multi-GPU compute and interconnect efficiency in Linux environments utilizing benchmarking utilities, NCCL, and CUDA.
Track test metrics, defect rates, and yields to supply feedback directly to production lines and hardware architecture groups.
Communicate daily with local vendors and manufacturing partners in Mandarin and English.

Requirements

Demonstrated practical background in validating and testing high-performance computing and GPU servers through burn-in and bring-up phases.
Deep Linux proficiency addressing hardware and system layers.
Firmware expertise covering BMC/IPMI, BIOS/UEFI, network interface card and GPU firmware updates and diagnostics.
Practical understanding of NVIDIA driver ecosystems, CUDA, NCCL, and multi-GPU benchmarking techniques.
Comprehension of server physical architecture including power supplies, cooling apparatus, networking elements, storage devices, motherboards, and PCIe arrangements.
Background in quality control or manufacturing verification within hardware production settings.
Complete fluency in both Mandarin and English as non-negotiable requirements.
Availability to perform physical duties on-site in Hong Kong across testing laboratories and factory floors.

Nice to Have

Background handling containerized units or micro-datacenter infrastructures regarding thermal, environmental, and power limitations.
Competence in validating high-speed networking and interconnect technologies including NVLink, RoCE, and InfiniBand.
Programming capabilities in Python or Bash for automating test workflows and reporting.
Prior interaction with contract manufacturing operations or hardware supply chains within Southern China and Hong Kong.
Spoken Cantonese proficiency.
