MTS Silicon Design Engineer

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc•Boxborough, MA

About The Position

AMD, Inc. is hiring an MTS Silicon Design Engineer to research, design, develop, and/or test electronic components and systems for semiconductor and related device manufacturing. The role oversees definition, design, verification, and/or documentation for ASIC development, including architecture and logic design and system simulation. It defines module interfaces and formats for simulation and leads multidimensional designs involving complex integrated-circuit layouts. The engineer evaluates the process flow from high-level designs through synthesis, place and route, timing, and power use. They work with cross-functional engineering teams on ASIC and layout design, drive projects or processes of significant technical importance, and apply independent judgment to resolve complex technical issues. The role applies engineering principles and knowledge of electronics, computers, design techniques, tools, and technologies to AMD product design, development, and testing. No travel is required. Multiple openings are available.

Requirements

Master’s degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related field, and three years of experience in the job offered or a closely related engineering role.
Alternatively, a bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related field, and five years of progressive, post-baccalaureate experience in the job offered or a closely related engineering role.
Three years of experience with SOC-level ASIC verification.
Three years of experience conducting SoC tape-outs from initial design to first boot.
Three years of experience debugging firmware and RTL code using simulation tools.
Three years of experience developing and using UVM-based verification frameworks, testbenches, processes, and flows in Linux and Windows environments.
Three years of experience automating workflows in a distributed compute environment.
Three years of experience with UVM concepts and the SystemVerilog language.
Three years of experience with SystemC and TLM.
