About the role
Senior technical leader on the Infinity Fabric Architecture and RTL team at AMD, driving development and execution of key IP within AMD’s scalable, coherent on-chip interconnect. Leads cross-functional collaboration to translate architectural intent into high-quality implementations, manages dependencies, and ensures designs meet functional, power, performance, area, and timing requirements across CPUs, GPUs, and other processor products.
Responsibilities
- Drive development and execution across IP component owners and teams, align implementation priorities, resolve cross-component dependencies, and ensure component designs come together to meet IP-level functional, power, performance, area, and timing requirements.
- Partner closely with the IP architect to translate architectural intent into actionable development work. Assess implementation feasibility, clarify requirements, and provide feedback on engineering trade-offs, bringing architecture-impacting questions or changes to the architect for direction.
- Lead top-down development scoping for new proposals. Advise leadership on execution strategies across concurrent commitments through data-driven assessments of engineering effort, design reuse, dependencies, capacity, technical risks, and skills gaps.
- Anticipate execution challenges and drive the engineering response to technical roadblocks, scope changes, and late-discovered bugs. Use tracking information provided by project managers to assess technical progress, engage the appropriate component owners, and support timely decisions on mitigation and priorities.
- Drive implementation reviews, technical readiness assessments, and issue closure across component boundaries and with verification, physical design, integration, and silicon teams. Reinforce design quality, clear technical ownership, and effective problem-solving throughout development.
- Represent the team, or support leadership representation, in AMD design quality and time-to-market improvement initiatives. Drive improvements to development processes, methodologies, tools, and team capabilities.
Qualifications
- BS, MS, or PhD degree in Electrical or Computer engineering preferred.
