Top Remote Senior Level Hardware Engineer Jobs in Los Angeles, CA

Designs and validates electrical and electronic components, subsystems, integrated circuitry, and hardware solutions. Develops test plans covering tolerances, form, fit, function, shock, vibration, EMI, safety, reliability, thermal performance, and power. Performs feasibility, margin, validation, modeling, and empirical analyses; collaborates with internal and outsourced engineering partners; evaluates production reliability and supports prototype fabrication for reliable, cost-effective products.

Validate server hardware components and new platform designs through power, thermal, performance, firmware, and automation testing. Maintain hardware test infrastructure, document technical findings, coordinate with ODM/OEM partners, and collaborate with software teams on BIOS, kernel, and firmware optimization. The role requires expertise in server architectures, validation methodologies, Linux, Python, Bash, Redfish, IPMI, and industry standards including PCIe, NVMe, and DDR.

Serve as a Field Application Engineer: build technical relationships, define customer requirements, recommend NI software/hardware architectures, support pre- and post-sales technical strategy, drive account technical plans, and generate technical demand. Achieve certifications (CLD, CTD) and meet sales-based performance objectives while traveling regionally.

Design complex printed circuit board layouts meeting mechanical, electrical, RF, mixed-signal, and manufacturing requirements. Plan project resources, communicate progress with customers, resolve technical issues, track project activities, and support on-time delivery. Collaborate remotely with multidisciplinary design teams, apply IPC standards, use PCB layout tools, and advocate for customers while maintaining high quality and workmanship.

Drive engineering optimization, yield improvements, automation, and product performance for Nokia’s 800G coherent optical pluggable modules. Analyze large datasets, improve manufacturing capability, maintain product engineering infrastructure, ensure specification traceability, and support prototype development and volume production in collaboration with hardware, test, firmware, reliability, and manufacturing teams.

Lead HBM and LPDDR system integration and bringup for next-generation SoCs. Own memory performance, power, thermal, and reliability closure across silicon, package, board, and firmware. Drive post-silicon margining, VF shmoo, eye characterization, and correlation. Debug training, calibration, SI/PI, and system stability issues. Define validation, characterization, and issue-tracking plans to produce production-ready operating points.

Develop and own compute and GPU server platforms from architecture through global deployment. Responsibilities include schematic and layout reviews, design for manufacturability, new product introduction, board and system bring-up, validation, debugging, firmware and BIOS feature management, technology qualification, and vendor coordination. The role requires hands-on server architecture, board-level design, Linux and scripting expertise, platform validation, and five-day-per-week presence in the Cambridge office.

Provides remote technical support for PerkinElmer atomic spectroscopy instruments across North America. Diagnoses complex hardware, software, and application issues; guides customers and field engineers through repairs; identifies root causes, parts, and corrective actions; documents service activity; supports first-time fixes, training, mentoring, technical communications, and operational improvements. Requires expert repair-level experience with atomic spectroscopy platforms, including at least two of AA, ICP-OES, and ICP-MS.

Design and develop high-performance RF and millimeter-wave MMICs, including power amplifiers, low-noise amplifiers, and RF switches, from architecture through tapeout, characterization, and product integration. Perform circuit and electromagnetic simulations, optimize performance, develop test plans, validate hardware, correlate measurements with simulations, and collaborate with systems, antenna, packaging, and transceiver teams on satellite communication products.

Owns the hardware lifecycle for GPU and infrastructure assets, including fleet health monitoring, vendor RMA workflows, firmware and BIOS upgrades, burn-in testing, failure investigation, inventory accuracy, capacity planning, spare-parts strategy, runbook creation, and new platform qualification. The role serves as the technical owner of physical compute platforms and supports high-density GPU infrastructure across sites.
