Solutions Engineer I (AI/ML)

We are seeking an early-career software engineer to serve as the field-facing bridge between our central engineering teams and our semiconductor manufacturing customers. This role combines customer-facing deployment and support with hands-on development and engineering contributions to our AI/ML analytics platform.

You will work directly in customer environments, many of which are air-gapped, to deploy and support our platform while also contributing to feature development, debugging, testing, and continuous improvement of the product. This is an ideal role for an engineer who enjoys both solving real-world problems on-site and building software solutions hands-on.

This opportunity is well suited to a new college graduate or early-career engineer seeking to develop deep expertise across the full lifecycle of enterprise software—from development and testing to deployment and field support—within advanced manufacturing environments.

• Lead deployment and configuration of our analytics suite in customer environments
• Deploy on-site during early usage phases to troubleshoot, identify issues, and stabilize system performance
• Serve as the first line of support for customer questions, escalating to central teams as needed
• Act as the interface between field operations and engineering for issue resolution and feature requests
• Conduct demonstrations and help customers understand platform capabilities
• Support customer-led server installs and namespace provisioning

• Contribute to software development efforts, including bug fixes, small feature enhancements, and tooling improvements
• Develop and maintain scripts, utilities, and configuration tooling (Python, Go, etc.) to improve deployment and support workflows
• Reproduce field issues in development/test environments and work with central teams to resolve them
• Participate in code reviews, debugging, and root cause analysis for production issues
• Support integration efforts across services (APIs, data pipelines, messaging systems)

• Execute and enhance test cases for new releases, particularly in on-prem/air-gapped scenarios
• Validate deployments and ensure software quality in real customer environments
• Provide structured feedback to engineering teams to improve product reliability, usability, and deployment processes
• Help define and improve deployment procedures, documentation, and runbooks

• Support coordination with programming suppliers, including technical communication and translation
• Collaborate closely with product, platform, and customer teams to ensure successful deployments

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field
• Strong foundation in software development and debugging (Python, Go, or similar)
• Working familiarity with Linux environments
• Exposure to modern software stacks: React, Go, Python, PostgreSQL, gRPC, HTTP, Kafka
• Comfort working outside the cloud—experience with or willingness to support on-premises, air-gapped deployments
• Full professional fluency in both Chinese and English (written and spoken)
• Willingness to travel and work on-site at customer facilities
• Strong communication skills with a customer-focused engineering mindset

• Experience with C# or backend services development
• Exposure to software testing, CI/CD pipelines, or release validation
• Basic understanding of AI/ML or data analytics systems
• Interest in or experience with semiconductor manufacturing environments
• Experience supporting end users or delivering technical demos

We make the tech that enables the chips in devices which improve lives around the world. We do this with an eye to the future, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible through cutting-edge innovation, and driving the next wave of technological breakthroughs that shape how we live, work, and connect.
