Intel's product development department is in search of an experienced engineer to join our growing discrete graphics team and deliver Intel's next generation supercompute projects to our customers. Our team is working on cutting edge exascale compute technology that requires strong engineering capabilities to understand our project's complex digital test strategy in order to define test requirements, develop/manage test strategy and implement test capabilities into our manufacturing test flow and meet coverage/quality requirements. The project dynamics and challenges require someone independently motivated to tackle complex engineering challenges, identify solutions and drive hands-on implementation. This Product Development Engineer (PDE) role provides an opportunity to engage pre/post-silicon in strategic planning for test requirements through Design For Test (DFT) architecture to achieve key project milestones through product release qualification for high volume manufacturability. Additionally, our PDE will collaborate with design, manufacturing, yield and platform validation teams to identify test requirements, dependencies, verify deliverables, ensure accountability, and implement/deliver our quality test coverage for Intel's extensive graphic's roadmap. Team members are expected to coordinate/collaborate with various stakeholders and communicate status/risks/impacts clearly and transparently to our teams, product leads and management.

Candidates will have attributes in the following.
- Strategic thinking to be proactive, analytical, and problem solving along with defining processes.
- Strong detail orientation to formulate execution plans, drive to schedule, manage dependencies/stakeholders, and proactively predict/avoid issues.
- Strong determination to guarantee quality, drive improvements and define processes with consideration for cost, quality, and schedule.
- Shares knowledge, ideas and information openly, and effectively promotes new ideas and influences others.
- Excellent written/verbal communication, documentation, and presentation skills.
