About The Position

At AMD, our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences—from AI and data centers, to PCs, gaming and embedded systems. Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuity and a shared passion to create something extraordinary. When you join AMD, you’ll discover the real differentiator is our culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges—striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond. Together, we advance your career.

We are looking for a ASIC Design Engineer, GPU/ML Shader Core who are motivated to challenge the status quo. If you are excited about building the next generation GPU/MI shader core, our team is on the lookout for you!
You will be part of a fast-paced team working on the Graphics shader design, a team of engineers of varied disciplines who are responsible for micro-architecting, designing, and delivering GPU and ML/AI shader IP for various products. Since we are the heart of GPU engine, we strive to challenge ourselves in exceeding area, power, and performance targets. No idea is too small; we welcome every initiative that makes our product better.
You are an “out of the box” thinker, motivated to absorb dynamic changes and thirsty to keep innovating. You will work on the sub-block inside programmable engine aka shader core of the GPU. The shader core plays a key role in running applications program, feeding, and consuming the data to/from GPU shader resources and computing mathematical operations. Collaborate with software, architect, micro-architect and logic design team members to define and tackle “how to efficiently own an application program with the least number of instructions and data transfer while consuming the least amount of power”. Strong interpersonal skills and an excellent teammate.

Requirements

• Experience in micro-architecture and RTL development (Verilog), focused on GPU/CPU/ML/AI pipelines, arbiters, scheduling, synchronization & bus protocols, interconnect networks and/or caches.
• Good understanding of ASIC design flow including RTL design, verification, logic synthesis and timing analysis.
• Exposure to Digital systems and VLSI design, Computer Architecture, Computer Arithmetic, CMOS transistors and circuits is required.
• Undergraduate degree required. Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Engineering/Electrical Engineering preferred.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with block architect, ASIC designers and verification engineers to define and document block micro-architecture and analyze architectural trade-offs based on features, performance requirements and system limitations
• Responsible for owning full design cycle from defining micro-architecture, implementing RTL, and deliver fully verified and PD timing clean design.
• Consult DV engineers in describing features, outlining test plans, and closing on coverage
• Assist DV engineers to debug functional, performance or power test failures
• Work with Physical Design team to close on timing, area and power requirements
