Meta Hardware System Engineer, NPI HDD in Menlo Park, California

Summary:

Meta is seeking a Hardware Systems Engineer to join our Release to Production (RTP) team working on new Storage platform initiatives. Our servers and data centers are the foundation upon which our rapidly scaling infrastructure operates efficiently to deliver our innovative services. The RTP team is responsible for the end-to-end Hardware Lifecycle of all Meta servers including prototyping of experimental HW, pre-production hands-on system and hardware debugging and stress testing, enabling production-ready system monitoring, automated provisioning and automated remediation of issues. Hardware Systems Engineers in RTP work closely with HW/SW co-design teams, hardware designers, networking teams, system manufacturers, component vendors, capacity engineering, production engineering, production services, and data center operations teams to enable new systems that will be deployed in our production data centers. We also work across service and hardware architectures for new types of systems; building prototypes to demonstrate the value, enable go/no-go decisions, and finally optimizing these systems for at-scale production.
