About the role

Senior verification lead focused on building and evolving scalable verification and build infrastructure for next-generation AMD CPUs, including Zen8/Zen9 programs. Leads design, development, and optimization of build systems, drives modernization, and collaborates with silicon design, CAD, and software teams to enable scalable, reliable, and efficient verification workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, development, and optimization of scalable build infrastructure to significantly reduce model build turnaround times and improve engineering productivity.
  • Drive organization-wide build system modernization initiatives, enabling efficient support for Zen8, Zen9, and future CPU core development programs.
  • Improve compute resource utilization and LSF farm efficiency through build caching, artifact reuse, and elimination of redundant build processes.
  • Architect and implement hyperscale build solutions that enhance performance, reliability, and scalability across AMD's silicon design environments.
  • Provide technical leadership and subject matter expertise for the transition from legacy build systems to next-generation build architectures.
  • Partner with silicon design, CAD, infrastructure, and software engineering teams to define and execute long-term build and automation strategies.
  • Establish best practices, standards, and roadmaps for build infrastructure, continuous integration, and large-scale engineering workflows.

Qualifications

  • BS or MS with some industry experience desired (all degrees related to CS or EE).
  • Deep expertise in build systems, build orchestration, and large-scale software or silicon development environments.
  • Strong experience designing and operating distributed or hyperscale build infrastructure.
  • Proven track record improving build performance, reducing turnaround time, and increasing engineering productivity at scale.
  • Experience with compute farm scheduling technologies (e.g., LSF or similar workload management platforms).
  • Strong understanding of build caching, artifact management, dependency optimization, and build reproducibility techniques.
  • Experience supporting semiconductor design workflows, EDA environments, or chip development programs.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead complex infrastructure transformation initiatives across multiple engineering organizations.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills with the ability to influence technical direction across cross-functional teams.
  • Experience driving automation, CI/CD, and infrastructure scalability in high-performance engineering environments.
