Job functions:
$159k - $248k/yr
Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering
Job Description
DESCRIPTION
AWS operates the world's largest fleet of GPU-accelerated servers powering AI/ML training and inference at cloud scale. Our team defines the server architectures, drives the hardware designs, and owns the fleet quality for these platforms — from component selection through datacenter operations. If you want to shape the physical hardware that frontier models train on, this is the role.
We are seeking a Cloud Hardware Development Engineer to define server architectures based on workload demand, translate them into detailed component specifications, and drive validation from PCBA bring-up through rack integration. You will lead ODM design partners through development and production, triage hardware issues across manufacturing and datacenters, and own fleet quality metrics post-launch.
What You Will Do
You will define the hardware that runs the world's largest AI training workloads. Your designs span thermal, mechanical, power, and signal integrity across GPU-accelerated platforms. You will drive validation from first silicon through fleet-scale deployment, triage failures correlating across PCIe, power delivery, memory, and accelerator interconnects, and feed root cause findings back into design improvements. When a new server platform launches at a large scale, the architecture, component choices, and quality gates are yours.

The Ideal Candidate
You think across the full hardware stack — from silicon packaging and power delivery to rack-level thermal and mechanical design. You are as comfortable reviewing a schematic as you are analyzing fleet failure data. You drive quality through data, not assumption, and you hold design partners to the same standard you hold yourself. You mentor and develop junior engineers, contribute to hiring, and share your expertise to make the team stronger.
Why You Will Love It
The world's most advanced frontier models train on the hardware you design. You will see your architecture decisions scale to a large fleet of servers. The team is deeply technical and high-trust — you own platforms end to end from architecture definition through fleet operations.
A day in the life
You start the day reviewing thermal and power validation data from an EVT build at your ODM partner. Mid-morning, you join a design review to close signal integrity findings on a high-speed accelerator interconnect. In the afternoon, you triage a fleet quality signal — correlating component-level failure data with manufacturing lot information to identify a systemic issue. You end the day aligning with architecture teams on requirements for the next-generation platform.
About the team
The Hardware Engineering AI/ML UltraServer platform team is a group of engineers and technical program managers directly responsible for launching GPU-accelerated servers into the AWS fleet. Located in Seattle, Austin, and Cupertino, we collaborate with global development teams and ODM partners to deliver next-generation AI/ML infrastructure deployed in datacenters worldwide. We move fast with small, empowered teams delivering end-to-end — from server conception through fleet-scale operations.

Key job responsibilities
Architecture & Design
- Define server architectures based on workload demand and customer requirements, translating them into detailed designs and component specifications that enable high-performance AI training and inference at scale
- Work with interdisciplinary teams of component, firmware, test, qualification, and integration engineers to deliver cohesive designs
- Drive design reviews with ODM/JDM partners covering schematic, layout, BOM, and manufacturing DFx (Design for Test, Design for Manufacturing)
Validation & Bring-up
- Define and execute validation strategies from PCBA bring-up through server and rack integration — covering power sequencing, signal integrity, thermal characterization, and accelerator interconnect performance
- Own hardware debug during EVT/DVT/PVT builds, correlating failures across PCIe, power rails, memory channels, and GPU subsystems
- Triage hardware issues at both ODM facilities and datacenters, conduct root cause analysis, and implement corrective actions
Fleet Quality & Continuous Improvement
- Own fleet quality metrics post-launch: server-level annualized failure rates and component-level failure modes
- Monitor operational telemetry to identify systemic issues and drive design or process changes for current and future platforms
- Partner with test and automation teams to improve manufacturing yield and reduce test dwell times
Cross-Team Collaboration
- Work with EC2 architecture teams to align on instance definitions, workload requirements, and platform trade-offs
- Drive ODM/JDM design partners through development milestones and production ramp
- Collaborate with firmware, software, and operations teams to ensure designs are debuggable, serviceable, and automation-ready

AI ML Engineering Jobs in Austin: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a ai ml engineering job in Austin?
Focus your search on Austin's dense clusters of enterprise software companies, semiconductor firms, and healthtech startups, particularly in the Domain and East Austin. Candidates who combine Python and deep learning frameworks with domain experience in autonomous systems or cloud infrastructure stand out. Attending Austin-specific meetups like ATX AI and engaging with local accelerator communities like Capital Factory gives you a real edge in a relationship-driven market.
Which companies hire ai ml engineerings in Austin?
Austin ai ml engineering roles are posted by Amazon Web Services, AMD, and Amazon and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. The Austin market includes a mix of established enterprise tech employers, defense and semiconductor companies, and fast-growing AI-native startups, many headquartered in or expanding out of the Domain and downtown corridors.
Are there remote ai ml engineering jobs in Austin?
Yes, though it depends on the role. AI and ML engineering work is largely laptop-based, making it more remote-compatible than many technical disciplines, though roles involving on-site GPU clusters or embedded systems labs tend to require in-person presence. About 60% of ai ml engineering openings tied to Austin are remote or hybrid as of September 2026. Model development and data pipeline work are the most commonly offered as fully remote in the Austin market.
How can I get a ai ml engineering job in Austin with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in Austin is through ML engineering associate or data engineer roles at mid-sized software or fintech companies, many of which hire junior candidates and train into AI tooling. Austin-area employers in healthtech and edtech are also known for hiring candidates with strong portfolio projects over formal experience. Contributing to open-source AI projects and completing a capstone through UT Austin's continuing education programs can open doors that a resume alone often cannot.
Which industries hire the most ai ml engineerings in Austin?
Most ai ml engineering openings in Austin sit in Technology & Software, Retail, and E-Commerce & Online Marketplaces, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Austin's growth as a hub for semiconductor manufacturing, enterprise SaaS, and healthcare technology has made these sectors the primary drivers of local AI and machine learning hiring, with demand accelerating as companies scale model deployment and automation initiatives.
