About the role
Leadership role in Platform Field Engineering (DPEG) at AMD, building and guiding a team of customer-facing debug engineers responsible for server- and rack-level hardware/firmware debug during customer bring-up, deployment, and ODM factory builds, with cross-functional collaboration and escalation management.
Responsibilities
- Build, lead, and mentor a team of customer-facing debug engineers covering server and rack-level HW/FW debug across customer deployment and NPI. Set technical benchmarks and foster career growth.
- Lead debug of platform bring-up, fleet anomalies, and early field failures at customer sites; drive issues to root cause and feed learnings back into design, validation, and manufacturing.
- Serve as the senior escalation point for complex server/rack debug, driving cross-functional resolution and owning the customer-facing narrative through to closure.
- Own debug status tracking and prioritization, and roll up clear, decision-oriented updates for internal and external leadership.
- Support HW/FW failure triage during ODM factory build and EVT/DVT/PVT gates, ensuring issues are driven to definitive root cause and corrective action.
- Drive debug across design, validation, product engineering, firmware, and FA teams; align pre- and post-silicon debug with platform readiness and deployment schedules.
- Prioritize scarce hardware across competing customer escalations, maximize coverage through shared setups, and enable remote debug when physical access is limited.
- Partner with customers, ODM teams, and Customer Program Managers; advise on AMD tools and debug methodologies, and contribute to technical and customer-facing documentation.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical discipline. Master’s degree in related field preferred.
