Graphcore is seeking a Senior Systems Engineer to provide advanced operational, diagnostic, and engineering support for its Arm-based hardware platforms across lab and data center environments. This role focuses on hardware bring-up, validation, and troubleshooting of complex AI compute platforms, including server blades, racks, and rack-scale infrastructure. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with engineering, platform, and data center teams to ensure the reliability and performance of next-generation AI systems.

Key responsibilities include leading advanced troubleshooting for server blades, motherboards, power systems, and rack-scale infrastructure. The role involves supporting engineering bring-up activities, diagnosing system-level failures related to thermal behavior, power anomalies, network configuration, and BIOS/BMC issues. Additionally, the engineer will collaborate with server engineering teams to perform root cause analysis and propose corrective actions or design improvements. Supporting the deployment and rollout of next-generation hardware platforms through structured validation and qualification cycles is also a critical aspect of the role.

The ideal candidate will possess a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline. Strong experience with server hardware architectures and board-level debugging is essential. The candidate should have experience analyzing system logs, hardware telemetry, and power/thermal metrics to isolate hardware failures. Hands-on experience with HPC systems, AI compute platforms, or rack-scale infrastructure is highly desirable. Strong collaboration skills and the ability to work effectively in fast-paced engineering environments are crucial, along with excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Graphcore offers a competitive salary and benefits package, including opportunities for professional growth and development. The company fosters a culture of continuous learning and constant innovation, providing employees with the chance to work on cutting-edge AI technologies.
