Sr. Silicon Design Engineer

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc•Orlando, FL

About The Position

AMD, Inc. is hiring a Sr. Silicon Design Engineer to research, design, develop, and/or test electronic components and systems for semiconductor and related device manufacturing. The role applies electronic theory and engineering principles, best practices, and technologies to the design, development, and testing of AMD products. The engineer oversees aspects of ASIC definition, design, verification, and documentation; determines architecture and logic design or system simulation; defines module interfaces and formats for simulation; and contributes to multidimensional designs involving complex integrated-circuit layouts. The role evaluates the process flow from high-level designs through synthesis, place and route, timing, and power use. It also develops ASIC or layout designs within an area of specialization and addresses problems requiring analysis and evaluation of identifiable factors. The position requires a master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field, plus one year of experience in the offered job or a closely related engineering role. Travel is not required. Preferred skills are listed as N/A.
