Systems Engineering Location:

Redmond, WA (Onsite - 5 days/week)

Experience:

8+ years Full Time Role Overview One of our clients develops next-generation hardware devices powered by custom firmware and software. These devices are continuously validated in lab environments to identify bugs, performance issues, and system reliability gaps. As a Lab Infra Engineer , you will play a critical role in the Systems Engineering function , supporting prototype bring-up, test execution, device farm operations, and cross-functional engineering efforts. You will act as the backbone of lab operations, ensuring devices and infrastructure are always ready for testing and validation cycles. Key Responsibilities Prototype Device Setup & Lab Operations Set up, configure, and maintain prototype hardware devices and test systems . Support device provisioning, firmware flashing, and configuration changes requested by engineering teams. Maintain lab infrastructure including racks, devices, cables, and power/network connectivity. Device Farm & Test Infrastructure Support Manage and monitor prototype device farms used for automated testing workflows . Ensure systems are test-ready and operational for continuous integration (CI) pipelines . Perform manual intervention when automated systems fail or require remediation. Testing & Validation Support Execute hardware, firmware, and system-level test procedures across devices. Support debugging test failures by isolating hardware vs software issues. Assist in validation activities covering functional, regression, performance, and reliability testing . Troubleshooting & Issue Triage Investigate and troubleshoot device failures, connectivity issues, and test anomalies . Work with engineering teams to capture logs, perform root-cause analysis, and escalate defects . Lab Maintenance & Operations Maintain lab cleanliness, organization, and safety standards .
