Top Hardware Engineer Jobs in Cleveland, OH

Design and develop wireless power transfer and energy-harvesting hardware for IoT and wearable devices. Apply power electronics, RF and electromagnetic theory to create ICs and circuits, integrate solutions into scalable systems, optimize energy efficiency, and drive sustainable innovation for large sensor networks.

Owns the hardware lifecycle for GPU and infrastructure assets, including fleet health monitoring, vendor RMA workflows, firmware and BIOS upgrades, burn-in testing, failure investigation, inventory accuracy, capacity planning, spare-parts strategy, runbook creation, and new platform qualification. The role serves as the technical owner of physical compute platforms and supports high-density GPU infrastructure across sites.

Validate server hardware components and new platform designs through power, thermal, performance, firmware, and automation testing. Maintain hardware test infrastructure, document technical findings, coordinate with ODM/OEM partners, and collaborate with software teams on BIOS, kernel, and firmware optimization. The role requires expertise in server architectures, validation methodologies, Linux, Python, Bash, Redfish, IPMI, and industry standards including PCIe, NVMe, and DDR.

Pipeline hiring for hardware engineers at all experience levels. Work includes circuit board design, schematic capture, component selection and prototype bring-up, hardware debug/testing and failure analysis, integration with firmware/software teams, and design for manufacturability with production handoff.

Develop and execute hardware validation procedures for precision DC test and measurement equipment. Document results, troubleshoot issues, write automated test programs, design test fixtures, maintain lab equipment, and collaborate with hardware, software, manufacturing, applications, and quality teams. The role also involves test scheduling, status reporting, technical documentation, and applying best practices in testing, automation, and system-level validation.

Develop advanced automation control systems covering hardware product development including design, testing, and regulatory compliance while mentoring junior engineers.

Lead standardization strategy for optical transport and Ethernet technologies, develop and advocate contributions to standards bodies (ITU‑T, IEEE, OIF, OpenROADM), coordinate with PLMs and R&D, report progress internally, provide technical influence and guidance, and represent Nokia at standards meetings and industry events.

Debug and resolve complex hardware/software issues for manufacturing test stations. Lead commissioning and release-to-manufacturing of opto-electrical test stations, improve test uptime, provide documentation and support to contract manufacturers and vendors, coordinate equipment RFQs/RMAs, and use AI tools for data analysis.

Design, document, and maintain electrical schematics, control panel layouts, and BOMs. Specify components, ensure UL/NEC compliance, create AutoCAD Electrical libraries/blocks, and collaborate with engineers, purchasing, and vendors to support manufacturing and project delivery.

Provides technical leadership and customer support for Marvell switching, PHY, and processor SoC products. Architects hardware solutions, investigates and reproduces hardware and software issues, performs schematic reviews, debugs boot sequencing and customer-reported problems, and supports Linux BSPs, U-Boot, device drivers, and board designs. Serves as a liaison among customers, Avnet field applications engineers, and Marvell engineering teams, while delivering training and occasional customer-site support.

Develop and execute hardware verification and validation test plans for wearable haptic devices. Perform functional, electrical, environmental, reliability, and system-level testing on prototypes and production hardware. Diagnose failures, run root-cause analysis, design automated test methods, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure product quality through EVT/DVT/PVT phases. Document results and provide technical recommendations to leadership.

The Electrical Engineer will design electro-mechanical systems for Vitamix products, manage components, ensure compliance, and support development activities.

Design power and mixed-signal electronics and perform circuit design and PCB layout. Lead product qualification, safety, and regulatory testing; conduct feasibility and risk assessments; evaluate new technologies; mentor junior engineers; and support field, manufacturing, and supply chain issue resolution throughout the product lifecycle.

Design, build, and operate reliable backend systems while mentoring engineers, participating in design discussions, and improving system performance.
