Job Description

Oracle's Hardware Development Organization seeks to add an experienced Lead Mechanical Design Engineer to work within its Server Development team in Santa Clara, California. As a member of this design team, you will have the opportunity to lead the mechanical architecture of the next state of the art server generations for various Oracle programs, including cloud applications.

The successful candidate will be responsible for architecting, designing, developing, integrating, and delivering server designs from concept to volume production. You will also actively participate in number of development efforts such as thermal development, system design feasibility, test and verification process, and transition to manufacturing environment for volume production. You will ensure the server design can be integrated into data center rack level, and can function optimally within this environment.

Career Level - IC4

Responsibilities

The list of responsibilities (but not limited) may include:

  • Detailed mechanical design of components, sub-assemblies, and system integration

  • Conduct mechanical design activities from concept to product creation

  • Proficient in working with CAD design tools such as Pro-E, SolidWorks, etc.

  • Perform extensive Tolerance studies/stack ups (i.e., root sum square, worst case, etc.)

  • Determine and validate mechanical design requirements for components and their functions within system environment

  • Manage and guide detailed design development activities and associated schedules

  • Participate in formal cross-functional design reviews

  • Active participation in thermal design activities and potential engineering design/modeling work

  • Drive design optimizations and collaborate with all stake holders on design for manufacturing enhancements

  • Create design Bill of Materials (BOM) and ultimately release the design into manufacturing and volume production

  • Oversee the build and validation of engineering prototypes

  • Perform root cause and corrective action analysis as required
