Imagine a future where everyone has instant, low-cost access to intelligence. We’re building a fully featured European AI cloud - with everything one needs to train, experiment with, and deploy AI models. In addition, our GPUs run on 100% renewable energy.

We’re ambitious, curious, and gutsy doers. We practice a low hierarchy across the company and high morale in our teams. We’ve already achieved a lot, yet we’re only getting started. Now it’s your chance to join the ride. We offer more than just the job - we offer a career-defining opportunity to be part of building something big!

Join Verda while it’s still being built - not once it’s finished.

About the role

Behind every server Verda brings online is hands-on engineering work: defining the right components, assembling and configuring the machine, validating it, and making sure issues are caught before customers ever see them. Our Hardware team is scaling, and we need more engineering capacity to keep server delivery fast and reliable.

We are looking for a (Senior) Hardware Engineer (SW/HW) to join our Hardware team in Helsinki. You will work across the full hardware delivery cycle assisting with BoMs for CPU and storage servers, assembling and validating systems, running testing and burn-in procedures, debugging issues across hardware and software, and improving the documentation and processes the team relies on.

This is a hands-on, practical, onsite-based role. The work involves physical servers, assembly, cabling, testing, and debugging. The team collaborates closely, communicates fast, and is comfortable with some ambiguity. Responsibilities may evolve as the team grows.

You'll join a small team where your work directly shapes how Verda builds, tests, and scales server systems. The scope is broad, spanning hardware and software, and grows with you: within a year, you'll own specific server configurations, validation workflows, and parts of the hardware delivery process.

What You Will Do

Assist in defining and maintaining BoMs for CPU and storage server configurations.

Assemble, configure, and validate servers for different applications.

Run and improve testing, burn-in, and troubleshooting procedures.

Debug hardware, firmware, Linux, storage, and networking issues.

Document configurations, test results, known issues, and handover steps.

Make day-to-day decisions on assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and practical process improvements — senior candidates will also recommend component choices and validation standards.

What We Are Looking For

Hands-on experience with servers, storage systems, workstations, or similar hardware.

Strong Linux/system-level troubleshooting skills.

Ability to debug issues across both hardware and software.

Clear documentation habits.

Ability to work from our Helsinki office 5 days per week.

Strong Plus

Experience assisting with BoMs, component compatibility, or hardware lifecycle work.

Experience with server testing, burn-in, diagnostics, or validation.

Experience in data center, cloud infrastructure, HPC, or storage environments.

What's Next

We're building fast and this role needs the right person behind it. There's no artificial deadline, but when we find who we're looking for, we move. If this sounds like your next move, apply now.
