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.\nTHE ROLE:\nThe Quality Engineering team is looking for an experienced GPU ASIC and PCBA Debug and Failure Analysis Engineering Manager to lead and develop a team of FA engineers. This role is intended for a proven people manager with prior experience building, mentoring, and guiding high-performing engineering teams, while also serving as a strong technical lead in GPU ASIC and board-level (PCBA) failure analysis. The individual will oversee customer and factory failure investigations for GPU accelerators, help drive failure reproduction and isolation, and work closely with cross-functional teams including design, validation, FW, and manufacturing to accelerate root cause analysis and corrective actions. Your contributions will directly impact team effectiveness, product quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction.\nTHE PERSON:\nThe ideal candidate is a strong people leader and technical expert who leads by example and is passionate about building, teaching, and mentoring a growing team of high-performing FA engineers. They bring prior experience managing, hiring, and developing engineers, creating an environment of accountability, collaboration, and continuous learning, while remaining hands-on enough to guide complex debug and failure analysis efforts in a fast-paced time to market environment. This person is a clear communicator, and a trusted technical leader who can elevate team capability, help others grow in their careers, and drive strong execution in a fast-paced environment. They combine deep analytical problem-solving skills with a practical, hands-on approach, and continuously look for ways to improve team effectiveness, technical depth, and overall quality outcomes.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES:\nProvide technical leadership for triage and debug of complex GPU and PCBA failures across power, ASIC, firmware, and thermals, guiding the FA team to root cause.\nLead failure reproduction and triage by defining debug plans, directing investigations, and guiding experiments and escalation paths for complex issues.\nDrive debug automation, diagnostic tools, and data analysis methods that improve triage efficiency and consistency across failure domains.\nLead cross-functional triage with manufacturing partners and AMD teams to align on failure hypotheses, reproduction, and root cause.\nGuide board-level debug using schematics, layouts, and design documentation to direct analysis and mentor engineers through the process.\nEnsure clear documentation of failure analysis results, root cause findings, and corrective actions for customer and internal use.\nPresent technical findings, triage updates, risks, and recovery plans to stakeholders and senior leadership.\nDrive continuous improvement of FA methods, triage processes, and best practices across power, ASIC, firmware, and thermal debug.\nManage and develop a team of FA engineers by setting priorities, providing technical guidance, and coaching through complex investigations.\nPREFERRED EXPERIENCE:\nExperience leading and developing engineering teams, with a strong track record of hiring, coaching, mentoring, and growing FA engineers.\nDeep expertise in GPU ASIC debug, validation, and functional or stress test development.\nStrong background in PCBA diagnostics, failure analysis, and board-level debug from NPI through production.\nExperience leading triage across power, ASIC, firmware, and thermal failure domains.\nStrong hands-on lab experience with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and custom debug tools.\nSolid understanding of firmware, drivers, and hardware interactions in complex system debug.\nExtensive experience in hardware verification, system integration, and failure reproduction.\nProficient in Python, shell scripting, and working across Windows and Linux environments.\nStrong leadership, communication, and presentation skills, with the ability to teach, mentor, and lead by example.\nAble to read schematics, interpret datasheets, identify components, and support board-level debug and rework.\nKnowledge of high-speed digital design, HBM or GDDR memory, PCIe, and GPU data center systems is a plus.\nACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:\nBachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.\nLOCATION:\nSecaucus, NJ\n\nThis role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.\n#LI-LB1\nBenefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance.\nAMD does not accept unsolicited resumes from headhunters, recruitment agencies, or fee-based recruitment services.
