Description

WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING 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. THE ROLE: Join our team to architect and develop cutting-edge hardware/software co-design solutions for FPGA-based acceleration across a wide range of applications—such as networking, storage, automotive, aerospace, and emerging AI/ML workloads. You will design high-performance hardware acceleration engines and embedded software that orchestrates them, enabling next-generation compute platforms. THE PERSON: You are passionate about modern processor architecture, digital design, and system-level validation. You thrive in collaborative environments, communicate effectively across global teams, and bring strong analytical and problem-solving skills. You are eager to learn and tackle complex technical challenges. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: Participate in a technical role in all phases of the product development cycle from new product exploration, architecture through implementation, prototyping, validation, productization and support including but not limited to architecture, design, and documentation for IPs Collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be developed RTL Development: Design, verify, and validate high-performance logic using SystemVerilog/Verilog. You will focus on the data and control path, implementing interfaces for PCIe (Gen 6/7), CXL, UAL, Ethernet, and DDR5/6 Embedded System Development: Develop firmware and low-level system software for the on-chip ARM Cortex (APU/RPU) or RISC-V soft cores. This includes managing inter-processor communication (IPC), DMA orchestration, and secure boot System Level Integration: Utilize the AMD (Xilinx) Vivado and Vitis ecosystems to integrate custom IP with the Network on Chip (NoC), memory and other subsystems Pre-Si Verification: Perform pre-silicon verification and emulation to ensure functional correctness and performance Post-Si Validation: Lead the “Bring-up” process in the lab. Perform post-silicon validation, debugging complex interactions between the embedded software, hard IPs and FPGA hardware fabric PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: Hands-on experience with FPGAs RTL Expertise: Expert in SystemVerilog/Verilog, synchronous design, and timing closure for high-speed logic Firmware/Software: Strong C/C++ skills for bare-metal or RTOS programming on ARM/RISC-V cores. Linux kernel-mode driver development experience is a strong plus Protocols: Deep knowledge of PCIe, AXI, DDR, and Ethernet. Familiarity with CXL or UAL is highly desirable Verification: Familiarity with UVM-based verification frameworks and emulation platforms (Palladium, Protium, Zebu) Validation: Proficiency with ILAs, high-speed oscilloscopes, and protocol analyzers for hardware debugging Tools: Proficiency in Python, Tcl, Makefiles, and shell scripting for automation ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering LOCATION: San Jose, CA OR Longmont, CO #LI-TB1 #LI-Hybrid Benefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance.
