Senior Systems Validation Engineer in AMD's Datacenter and GPU Accelerated Processing division focused on SOC and system/rack level validation across pre-silicon to post-silicon phases for Data Center GPU products.

Responsibilities

  • Work with domain subject matter experts to plan and execute validation test content across multiple accelerators and racks
  • Own validation planning and execution across emulation, ASIC bring-up, post-silicon enablement, regression and sustaining phases
  • Lead triage, debug, root-cause analysis, and issue closure across hardware, firmware, platform, diagnostics, and system-level interactions
  • Partner with architecture, design, firmware, diagnostics, platform, automation, customer engineering, and program teams to align scope, risks, dependencies, and exit criteria
  • Build and improve automation, validation content, debug-analysis scripts, and regression checks to improve coverage, efficiency, and repeatability
  • Review RTL, specifications, firmware interfaces, register maps, and validation collateral to identify coverage gaps and improve validation effectiveness
  • Support lab-based and system-level debug using platform tools, firmware logs, register-level analysis, and standard measurement equipment
  • Support customer and sustaining issues by providing SOC and system test technical expertise, debug guidance, and issue-resolution support
  • Mentor engineers and help improve team validation methodology, debug practices, and product quality

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field
