You will design front-end and back-end services that discover, monitor and control compute trays, power shelves, CDUs and switches, collect telemetry and enforce power, thermal and leak/fault policies. You will also own the function and stress test system used for bring-up and validation, support BMC integration on the compute tray and manage the Spectrum-X/ESUN switches, working closely with third-party ODM vendors and CSP/OEM customers.

• Control policies: implement power capping, thermal response and leak/fault handling
• Switch management: support management and telemetry integration for Spectrum-X/ESUN switches
• Front end: build operator dashboards and APIs, integrate with CSP fleet and DCIM tools
• Test system: own the function and stress test framework and automation for bring-up and validation
