PMTS Silicon Design Engineer
About The Position
AMD is hiring a PMTS Silicon Design Engineer to research, design, develop, and test electronic components and systems for semiconductors and related devices. The role leads definition, design, verification, and documentation for ASIC development, including architecture and logic design, system simulation, and definition of module interfaces and formats for simulation. The engineer develops CPU competitive-analysis solutions focused on x86, ARM, and other architectures, and builds and optimizes frameworks for generating targeted droop events in DI/DT analysis to support accurate power modeling. The role includes leading multidimensional integrated-circuit layout designs; making technical decisions across the process flow, from high-level design through synthesis, place and route, timing, and power; and testing and verifying hardware against specifications and requirements. As a technical leader across project or departmental boundaries, the engineer addresses issues affecting design or product success and future concepts, products, or technologies; drives projects or processes of significant technical importance; and applies engineering principles, best practices, and technologies to AMD product design, development, and testing. Multiple openings are available. Travel is not required.
Requirements
- Master’s degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related field, plus five years of experience in the job offered or a closely related engineering role; alternatively, a bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent in one of those fields plus seven years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience in the job offered or a closely related engineering role.
- Five years of experience scripting in C, C++, or Python.
- Five years of experience in kernel and driver development.
- Five years of experience designing and developing hardware access and control libraries.
- Five years of experience in platform-level stress testing.
- Five years of experience in synthetic workload design.
- Five years of experience building frameworks and libraries to scale validation tools.
- Five years of experience diagnosing and resolving hardware-software compatibility issues.
- Five years of experience in hardware access tools development.
- Five years of experience developing CPU and GPU performance analysis tools.
- Five years of experience with CPU power management configuration and monitoring tools.
- Five years of experience developing CPU instruction and bus tracing tools.
- Five years of experience with x86 and ARM assembly.
