Responsibilities

• Design and develop system-level RAS architectures for complex computing systems, data centers, or mission-critical applications.
• Define and analyze system-level reliability, availability, and serviceability requirements, ensuring compliance with industry standards and customer expectations.
• Collaborate with hardware and software teams to identify potential points of failure, conduct failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), and propose mitigation strategies.
• Develop fault detection, isolation, and recovery mechanisms to ensure system resilience and minimize downtime.
• Design redundancy and fault-tolerant mechanisms, including redundant components, error correction codes (ECC), and hot-swappable modules, to maximize system availability.
• Define and implement advanced diagnostics and monitoring capabilities to enable proactive system health management and predictive maintenance.
• Evaluate and select appropriate technologies and components to optimize reliability, availability, and serviceability, considering factors such as mean time between failures (MTBF), mean time to repair (MTTR), and total cost of ownership (TCO).
• Collaborate with vendors and suppliers to assess and integrate their RAS-related solutions into the overall system architecture.
• Conduct system-level simulations, analysis, and testing to validate and verify the effectiveness of the RAS architecture and its components.
• Stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in RAS techniques, fault tolerance mechanisms, and industry trends to guide future system designs.
