WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING

We care deeply about transforming lives with AMD technology to enrich our industry, our communities, and the world. Our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences – the building blocks for the data center, artificial intelligence, PCs, gaming and embedded. Underpinning our mission is the AMD culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges. We strive for execution excellence while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. 

AMD together we advance_

THE ROLE: 

The successful candidate will join AMD's Computing and Graphics Performance Modeling team. The team’s mandate is to guide design of AMD’s next generation SOC architecture via performance modeling, and subsequently correlate model results with RTL simulations. This role will involve working with SOC and IP architects to evaluate and improve performance, and collaborating with power modeling, design and verification teams to execute performance verification plans.

THE PERSON: 

The ideal candidate has a passion for modern, complex processor architecture, including CPUs, GPUs, memory systems, and interconnects. The candidate must have prior experience with performance modeling, or digital design; any hands-on experience with design verification is desirable. The candidate must have excellent communication skills and experience working with teams in different sites and time zones. The candidate must have strong analytical and problem-solving skills, be willing to learn, and be ready to take on new challenges.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: 

  • Work in the Computing and Graphics Performance Modeling team
  • Develop performance models and generate workloads to analyze specific customer use cases and requirements
  • Work with architects and designers to debug performance bottlenecks and propose solutions to achieve performance targets
  • Communicate performance results and power/area tradeoffs to internal and external AMD customers
  • Develop, track, and communicate project plans internally and with customers
  • Utilize customer feedback to improve performance modeling capabilities and enhance deliverables
  • Contribute to a global team that will execute to a high standard of quality
  • Engage in multi-discipline interactions with IP and SoC architects, design and verification teams, physical design engineers, SW/FW developers, and post-silicon validation teams

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: 

  • 5+ years of professional experience in the industry with a proven track record of successfully building and delivering complex SOC computing devices
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics/Computer Engineering or Computer Science with emphasis on computer architecture and performance/power analysis
  • Detailed microarchitecture knowledge in one or more of the following IPs - CPU, GPU, DSP, NPU, multimedia co-processor, I/O subsystem, DRAM controller, and other accelerators
  • Experience with computer system simulation and performance evaluation
  • Demonstrated success working in global development teams
  • Experience mentoring colleagues to develop technical capabilities within the team
  • Experience working with cross-functional teams from multiple departments
  • Experience with ASIC hardware design and verification languages/tools is highly desirable (Verilog, System Verilog, System C, UVM/UVC)
  • Proficiency in debugging RTL code using simulation tools
  • Strong proficiency with programming and scripting languages (C/C++, Perl, Python, etc.)
  • Experience analyzing system bottlenecks and optimizing computing systems for performance
  • Strong verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills with both technical and non-technical audiences

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: 

  • Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering
