GPU Design Verification Engineer - Shader Core

Advanced Micro Devices, IncSan Diego, CA
Hybrid

About The Position

Join a team responsible for the verification of AMD's GPU shader processor core, a critical component that enables high-performance graphics and compute workloads. In this role, you will help ensure the quality and reliability of new and existing hardware features by developing and executing comprehensive verification strategies throughout the design cycle. You will collaborate closely with architecture, hardware, firmware, and software teams to validate functionality, identify issues early, and drive high-quality design releases. This position offers the opportunity to work on advanced GPU technologies while contributing to complex verification environments and methodologies.

Requirements

  • Experience with IP-level ASIC design verification.
  • Strong knowledge of UVM-based verification environments and methodologies.
  • Experience debugging RTL and firmware using simulation tools.
  • Proficiency with Verilog, SystemVerilog, C, and C++.
  • Understanding of GPU architecture and graphics pipeline concepts.
  • Experience developing verification frameworks, testbenches, processes, and flows.
  • Familiarity with Linux-based development environments; exposure to Windows development is a plus.
  • Experience automating workflows in distributed compute environments.
  • Knowledge of simulation performance optimization, acceleration technologies, or high-level synthesis methodologies.
  • Familiarity with SystemC and Transaction-Level Modeling (TLM).
  • Experience with scripting languages such as Perl, Ruby, shell scripting, or Makefiles.

Nice To Haves

  • Experience mentoring others or providing technical leadership is a plus.
  • Exposure to Windows development is a plus.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with architecture, hardware, and firmware teams to understand and verify new shader core features.
  • Develop comprehensive verification plans that account for feature interactions across hardware, firmware, and software.
  • Estimate verification effort and identify required enhancements to verification environments.
  • Design, develop, and execute directed and constrained-random verification tests.
  • Debug simulation failures and determine root causes of functional issues.
  • Partner with design and firmware engineers to resolve defects and improve design quality.
  • Analyze functional and code coverage results and implement improvements to achieve coverage goals.
  • Enhance verification methodologies, automation, and test infrastructure to improve productivity and quality.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of verification processes, tools, and workflows.

Benefits

  • AMD benefits at a glance.
