Description

Product, Testing & Quality Engineer Location: Ra’anana, Israel About Us: DriveNets is a leader in disaggregated high-scale networking solutions for service providers and AI infrastructures. Founded in December 2015, DriveNets created a radical new way to build networks by adapting the architectural model of the cloud to telco-grade networking. This solution accelerates network deployment, improves the network’s economic model, and radically simplifies network operations. With customers including Comcast, Orange, and KDDI - over 80% of AT&T’s network traffic now runs through a disaggregated core powered by DriveNets software. DriveNets Network Cloud-AI solution, based on the same technology, was introduced to the market in 2023, providing the highest-performance Ethernet-based AI networking solution, and is already deployed by Hyperscalers, NeoClouds and Enterprises. Raising over $587 million in three funding rounds, DriveNets continues to deploy the most innovative network infrastructure and is looking for the most talented people to be part of this journey. The Role: This is a high-impact technical leadership role designed for a "star" engineer who can own the entire hardware lifecycle. You will be responsible for stabilizing products from the first prototype through mass production, defining validation strategies, and managing the technical deployment of test stations at global Contract Manufacturers (CMs). You will bridge the gap between R&D, manufacturing, and field reliability to ensure world-class product quality. Core Responsibilities Outsourced Station & Vendor Management: Lead the design, setup, and qualification and scale-up of test stations (ICT/JTAG/FT) and debug infrastructure at CM/Outsource partners. End-to-End Product Stabilization: Own the hardware stabilization process from the first build unit through ramp-up and transition to high-volume production. Validation & Automation Strategy: Build comprehensive validation plans, review hardware designs for testability (DFT), and integrate automated software tests into production lines. Advanced System Debugging: Develop hardware debug tools and methodologies to perform deep-dive failure analysis and root cause investigations on systemic issues. Yield & Data Intelligence: Monitor and optimize yield performance using data analysis techniques to identify trends and failure modes during the NPI lifecycle. Field & RMA Ownership: Lead technical investigations into field-deployed systems, analyzing diagnostics and telemetry to evaluate RMA claims and provide actionable engineering recommendations. Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate with Mechanical NPI, Test Development, R&D, and manufacturing partners to align test requirements with business needs. Statistical Process Control (SPC) Implementation: Establish and monitor SPC for critical manufacturing parameters to identify process "drifts" before they result in actual product failures. Root Cause Corrective Action (RCCA): Lead the formal RCCA process for any manufacturing escapes, ensuring that the "fix" is implemented both in the hardware design and the test software. Vendor Quality Engineering (VQE): Act as the technical quality lead for CMs and outsourced station builders, defining the "Golden Unit" standards and qualification protocols for all production lines. Requirements Education: B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related Engineering Science. Experience: 10+ years of hands-on experience spanning product engineering, PCBA & system-level validation, and post-production support. experience with high-end routers, switches, and data center infrastructure. Advantage Manufacturing & CM Oversight: Deep understanding of electronic manufacturing processes, test stability, and managing hardware processes in a production environment. Proven experience working on-site at global Contract Manufacturers (CM) to oversee production line bring-up and stabilization. Global Collaboration: Ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with multicultural operators and engineering teams across diverse regions (e.g., Asia, Europe, Mexico). Must demonstrate high cultural intelligence and the ability to bridge technical gaps across language barriers. Hardware Mastery: Proven ability to perform deep-dive HW debugging and interpret complex logs, communication protocols, and system-level behavior. Automation & Software: Proficient with programming/scripting knowledge (e.g., Python, C, C#) to support automated test integration. Analytical Skills: Strong experience in yield analysis and the use of statistical tools to derive insights from large volumes of data. Communication: Outstanding written and verbal English skills; ability to present technical findings to diverse stakeholders. Availability: Willingness to travel internationally for extended periods to support global production sites.

Responsibilities

This role involves owning the entire hardware lifecycle from prototype to mass production, including defining validation strategies and managing the technical deployment of test stations at global Contract Manufacturers. Key duties include leading outsourced station management, advanced system debugging, yield optimization, and owning field/RMA investigations.
