WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING
At AMD, our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences-from AI and data centers, to PCs, gamingand embedded systems. Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuityand a shared passion to create something extraordinary. When you join AMD, you’lldiscover the real differentiator is our culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges-striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond.Together, we advance your career.
THE ROLE:
We are hiring a Mechanical Engineer to own the board-level mechanical aspects of design for AMD’s AI and HPC platforms. This role focuses on defining and integrating the mechanical features of complex, high-performance boards, ensuring they meet system requirements while remaining manufacturable and robust.
You will work closely with HW team and system mechanical engineering, thermal, and manufacturing teams to deliver optimize solution into AMD platform.
THE PERSON:
Wider board and system design knowledge for AI server solution and review experience. Your engineering expertise will be necessary towards product development, definition, and root cause resolution.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Review board level and system level design to identify any potential system issue and drive resolution. Perform case study or/and FA and provide issue resolution recommendation.
- Review mechanical parts SPEC and 2D drawings.
- Work with system engineers and review cable design.
- Own the mechanical definition of complex PCB designs, including board outline, mounting scheme, connector and component placement constraints, and keep-out requirements.
- Work closely with system mechanical engineers to ensure alignment between board design and system-level integration.
- Partner with thermal engineering to support cooling solutions, including placement and mechanical integration of heat sinks, cold plates, and related mounting structures.
- Collaborate with electrical design teams to co-develop layouts that balance mechanical constraints with routing and packaging needs, including connector placement and board topology.
- Engage with fabrication, assembly, and reliability teams to ensure designs are manufacturable and meet mechanical and reliability requirements.
- Support bring-up and validation by helping diagnose and resolve mechanical integration or reliability issues observed in prototypes or production.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
- Must have at least 7~12 years of comparable experience doing server PCB design or high-density board PCB design
- Experience with mechanical design of electronic assemblies, including PCB-based systems or similar high-density hardware.
- Strong understanding of mechanical design fundamentals, including structural support, tolerance definition, and component integration.
- Experience with CAD tools (e.g., Creo, SolidWorks, or similar) for design and layout of mechanical features.
- Performs finite element (FE) simulations and related testing from concept evaluations to design functional verifications (when needed).
- Ability to work effectively across disciplines, including electrical, thermal, manufacturing, and reliability teams.
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work through complex cross-functional constraints.
- Strong knowledge of Solid Mechanics and Strength of Materials
- Wider experience in static and dynamic Finite Element Analysis.
- Experience in testing and failure modeling of different classes of materials
- Experience in cold plate and TIM tolerance review.
ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
