  • Participate in bug swarm meetings. Seek to understand problems, propose effective design-of-experiment to debug to root cause, and create new solutions/tests that succinctly resolve, isolate, and validate.

Qualifications:

  • BS/MS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • BS + 8 years or MS + 6 years of related experience in HDD, SSD, semiconductor, or non-volatile memory development.

Benefits:
