AI Data Center Solution Architect – GPU Platforms

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc • Austin, TX

8d • Hybrid

About The Position

This role blends deep GPU cluster architecture expertise with customer-facing technical leadership. It requires a systems-level thinker who can translate customer requirements into complete, buildable data center designs—spanning compute, networking, storage, power, cooling, and physical layout. You are comfortable operating as a trusted technical advisor to customers, owning the end-to-end technical narrative from early solutioning through Basis of Design development, while aligning AMD internal teams, partners, and OEMs around a coherent architecture. Success in this role requires strong judgment, cross-domain fluency, and the ability to turn complex constraints into clear, defensible designs.

Requirements

• Experience designing large-scale GPU or HPC clusters for AI workloads.
• Understanding of data center architecture including: High-speed Ethernet networking, Distributed and parallel storage systems, Power distribution, redundancy, and capacity planning, Air and liquid cooling solutions, Physical layout and rack-level design.
• Experience producing or reviewing Basis of Design, reference architectures, or similar engineering documentation.
• Customer-facing technical experience with the ability to clearly communicate complex tradeoffs.
• Strong systems mindset with the ability to connect compute, network, storage, and facilities constraints.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• High ownership, attention to detail, and ability to operate independently across ambiguous problem spaces.

Responsibilities

• Lead customer engagements to define AI GPU cluster architecture and develop complete Basis of Design (BoD) documents.
• Architect end-to-end data center solutions including GPU platforms, high-speed networking, storage, power distribution, cooling, and floor layout.
• Translate AI workload requirements (training, inference, mixed workloads) into scalable, reliable infrastructure designs optimized for AMD platforms.
• Partner with customers, OEMs/ODMs, and AMD internal teams to align on technical decisions and tradeoffs.
• Perform architecture reviews, gap analysis, and risk assessments to ensure designs are deployable and operationally sound.
• Provide guidance on best practices for power redundancy, cooling strategies, network topology, and cluster scalability.
• Support pre-sales, solution reviews, and executive-level technical discussions as needed.

Benefits

• AMD benefits at a glance.
