ADVANCE THE WORLD.\nAt AMD, we believe technology can change lives for the better. It can heal us, entertain us, and make us more connected, productive, and understanding of the world around us. And we’re looking for talent who feel the same: people who want to leave the planet better than they found it, those who don’t shy away from humanity’s challenges but are determined to help solve them.\nAMD is powering the next generation of supercomputing, high-performance computing, cloud, and AI. Whether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or creating go-to-market plans, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger - technology that moves the world forward.\nCPU Verification Engineer\nFlexible Location - Dublin or Cork, Ireland\nTHE ROLE:\nAMD’s Cores Organization delivers industry leading CPU’s and caches that are the foundation of AMD’s server, client, and gaming business. We are looking for an experienced cache verification engineer to join this innovative team. The candidate will be a key contributor and potential leader for AMD’s next generation cores and caches.\nTHE PERSON:\nThe candidate should have strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills with excellent attention to details. We work on programs with long timelines, so self-motivation and commitment to meeting deadlines is required. We are pushing the envelope on chip performance, so the status quo must be challenged on every program. This requires creativity and innovation, but also excellent verbal and written communication skills. We work in small teams, but we are part of a large cross-site Core’s organization, so teamwork is also vital our success.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES:\nLead and execute Functional verification of high-speed Microprocessor designs, including development of infrastructure, directed and random test suites at behavioral RTL and gate design levels across SoC, Core and block hierarchies.\nDevelop environments, infrastructure, and test plans to accommodate both full chip and stand-alone block-level verification and debug capabilities using simulation tools, debug tools and programming skills, based on in-depth understanding of the architecture and HDL/logical design of the microprocessor.\nBased on thorough understanding of the design architecture, develop, run and debug x86 assembly based directed tests and random exercisers to validate functionality and testability operation of the microprocessor design leveraging C/C++/Perl/assembly programming, logic design and simulation skill set.\nDrive project deliverables/dependencies with cross-discipline/site RTL, DFT and Implementation design teams along with product manufacturing teams.\nReview functional and code coverage metrics - modify or add tests or constrain random tests to meet the coverage requirements\nPREFERRED EXPERIENCE:\nProficient in IP level ASIC verification\nPrior experience of working on Clock, Reset related block in an SoC is strongly desired.\nProven programming proficiency in x86 assembly, C/C++, Perl, and Ruby languages along with strong logic simulation competence.\nDemonstrated expertise with Verilog HDL and System Verilog.\nDemonstrated solid understanding of modern computer architecture would be a plus.\nDFT feature knowledge with JTAG -1149.x, Memory, Logic and I/O Built-In-Self-Test(BIST) and Scan design(LSSD/MuxD) structures and protocol would be a plus.\nPrior experience with verification of microprocessors designs is a plus.\nScripting language experience: Perl, Ruby, Makefile, shell preferred. \nExposure to leadership or mentorship is an asset\nACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:\nBachelors or Mastersdegree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering, plus 10+ years of verification experience\nBenefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance.\nAMD does not accept unsolicited resumes from headhunters, recruitment agencies, or fee-based recruitment services.
