DFT Change Analyst

NVIDIA’s Product Engineering group is looking for a highly motivated Hardware Engineer to lead Change Impact Analysis activities related to engineering design changes (ECOs/ECRs) across our cutting-edge networking and computing platforms. This role is critical to ensuring that all product modifications are seamlessly evaluated for their impact on hardware, mechanical design, system performance, and test coverage across the product lifecycle. You will work closely with R&D, mechanical engineering, manufacturing, quality, and test teams to assess risks, define mitigations, and maintain excellence in product integrity and testability.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Leading engineering change analysis (ECO/ECR) processes across complex hardware systems.

Evaluating the impact of component, layout, and mechanical changes on hardware functionality, manufacturability, and testability.

Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth implementation of changes without compromising product quality.

Supporting DFT (Design for Testability) requirements in the face of ongoing design changes.

Reviewing BOM and layout revisions and assessing ripple effects on power delivery, signal integrity, and thermal performance.

Maintaining change traceability and documentation to meet engineering and compliance standards.

Coordinating with manufacturing and operations teams to ensure product readiness and alignment with production timelines.

What We Need to See:

BSc or MSc in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (with exposure to mechanical systems – a plus).

Hands-on experience in hardware design or validation, preferably in server, networking, or embedded systems.

3+ years working with ECO/ECR processes, board/system-level design, or sustaining engineering.

Solid understanding of mechanical interfaces, thermal considerations, and their influence on electronic systems.

Familiarity with DFT principles, signal integrity concepts, and production test environments.

Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to handle multiple change requests in parallel.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.

At NVIDIA, you will join a culture that thrives on innovation, collaboration, and pushing the boundaries of technology. You’ll work alongside top minds in hardware and systems engineering, and contribute to products that impact data centers and AI workloads worldwide.
