Are you up for the challenge?

Position Overview

Axelera AI is building the world’s most efficient AI inference silicon. As we scale deployments of our Metis and Europa-based platforms through ODM, OEM, and CM partnerships in the Asia-Pacific region, we need a technically strong Integration Engineer embedded in Taiwan.

This role is the primary technical interface between Axelera’s AI Integrated Systems (AIS) engineering team and our external partners in Taiwan — covering ODM system integrators, contract manufacturers during NPI/production ramp, and component suppliers. You will ensure that Axelera hardware integrates correctly into partner platforms, that production quality issues are resolved rapidly, and that partners can successfully deploy a complete solution.

Key responsibilities: ODM / OEM System Integration Support

• Act as the primary technical point of contact for ODM partners adopting Axelera PCIe accelerator cards, M.2 modules, and AI SBCs into their systems.

• Guide partners through hardware integration: compatibility, power budget, cooling, mechanical clearances, and BIOS/firmware settings.

• Support partner bring-up: OS/driver installation, Voyager SDK deployment, and first-inference validation on customer platforms.

• Produce and maintain integration guides, application notes, and FAQs tailored to key ODM accounts.

Contract Manufacturer (CM) NPI & Production Support

• Provide on-site or remote support to CMs during Mass Production Introduction (MPI) phases, including first-article inspection and pilot-run reviews.

• Review and validate CM production test procedures against Axelera ATE/ICT requirements; escalate deviations to the AIS engineering team.

• Own in-field production defect triage: collect failure evidence, replicate issues on bench, and drive root-cause analysis in collaboration with R&D engineers.

• Maintain a defect log and track corrective/preventive actions (CAPA) through to closure.

Supplier Technical Interface

• Coordinate with power component suppliers (DCDC converters, PMUs, DDR, passive components) on qualification questions and field-reported anomalies.

• Perform bench characterisation of power-related issues (efficiency, regulation, transient response) and communicate findings to internal power integrity engineers.

• Support BOM change evaluations for sourced alternatives, providing electrical equivalency data to the AIS team.

Component & Design Qualification

• Contribute to the qualification of new components (power ICs, passives, memory, connectors) for Axelera in-house hardware products, leveraging proximity to the Taiwan supply chain and key component manufacturers.

• Evaluate pin-compatible or functionally equivalent alternatives proposed during BOM reviews or component end-of-life transitions; provide electrical characterisation data and board-level validation results to the AIS design team.

• Support design verification activities for new PCB revisions or new product introductions: perform bring-up, functional testing, and regression against previous hardware baselines.

• Act as the local technical interface with design partners or EMS providers during engineeri …
