- Design, adapt, and test 3D-printed case mods and hardware enclosures
- Build SSD-based NAS and storage systems
- Integrate and test eGPU expansion units (NVIDIA preferred)
- Troubleshoot, optimize, and document builds for learning and knowledge sharing
Who We're Looking For
- Computer science student (undergrad or grad) with strong interest in hardware
- Passionate about building PCs, servers, and experimenting with hardware products
- Basic knowledge of CPUs, RAM, SSDs, GPUs, and networking
- Eagerness to learn about Proxmox, virtualization, and hardware/firmware tuning
- Bonus: experience with 3D printing or CAD tools
- Curious, reliable, and detail-oriented
Why Join Us?
- Turn your CS knowledge into hands-on hardware skills
- Mentorship in advanced server builds, virtualization, and storage systems
