You should care about workstations servers and keep running safe, in additional you should keep monitoring data center which include your hardware provide spare or replacement in case you faced issue, replace it internally like mother board memory CPU fan VGA card and Externally like hot plug hardisk power supply But this not only things hardware engineer do you should work in softwere parts netapp or EMC storage

A hardware engineer works with the components and systems used to build computers and may create, install, and analyze these devices.
Depending upon job requirements and company size, this type of engineer also may be responsible for managing budgets, coordinating with outside entities, and training and supervising employees.
Hardware engineers are knowledgeable about the ways in which computers are built and the use of associated applications.
This job also requires extensive understanding of and experience with computer programming and processing.
One main component of this job is the creation of computer hardware.
This may include smaller household computer systems, larger equipment, or computer networks.
A hardware engineer must research carefully and consider all company and customer requirements when designing computer hardware.
This engineer is vital to the process of planning and designing computer systems and usually verifies and approves final plans before they are sent to production.
Once the computer hardware is created and built, a hardware engineer might be responsible for a certain amount of quality testing on the device.
He may be in charge of running tests and diagnostics and will most likely initiate any attempts at corrections and repairs.
He may also be responsible for instructing others on how to properly utilize and troubleshoot these machines
