ADVANCE THE WORLD.\nAt AMD, we believe technology has the power to solve the world’s most important challenges. From advancing healthcare and scientific discovery to powering AI and the technologies people rely on every day, innovation at AMD is shaping the future.\nWhether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or bringing leading edge products to market, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger - technology that moves the world forward. Join us and, together, we’ll advance your career.\nTHE ROLE:\nJoin our team to architect and develop cutting-edge hardware/software co-design solutions for FPGA-based acceleration across a wide range of applications-such as networking, storage, automotive, aerospace, and emerging AI/ML workloads. You will design high-performance hardware acceleration engines and embedded software that orchestrates them, enabling next-generation compute platforms.\nTHE PERSON:\nYou are passionate about modern processor architecture, digital design, and system-level validation. You thrive in collaborative environments, communicate effectively across global teams, and bring strong analytical and problem-solving skills. You are eager to learn and tackle complex technical challenges.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES:\nParticipate in a technical role in all phases of the product development cycle from new product exploration, architecture through implementation, prototyping, validation, productization and support including but not limited to architecture, design, and documentation for IPs\nCollaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be developed\n RTL Development: Design, verify, and validate high-performance logic using SystemVerilog/Verilog. You will focus on the data and control path, implementing interfaces for PCIe (Gen 6/7), CXL, UAL, Ethernet, and DDR5/6\n Embedded System Development: Develop firmware and low-level system software for the on-chip ARM Cortex (APU/RPU) or RISC-V soft cores. This includes managing inter-processor communication (IPC), DMA orchestration, and secure boot\n System Level Integration: Utilize the AMD (Xilinx) Vivado and Vitis ecosystems to integrate custom IP with the Network on Chip (NoC), memory and other subsystems\nPre-Si Verification: Perform pre-silicon verification and emulation to ensure functional correctness and performance\nPost-Si Validation: Lead the “Bring-up” process in the lab. Perform post-silicon validation, debugging complex interactions between the embedded software, hard IPs and FPGA hardware fabric\nPREFERRED EXPERIENCE:\nHands-on experience with FPGAs\nRTL Expertise: Expert in SystemVerilog/Verilog, synchronous design, and timing closure for high-speed logic\nFirmware/Software: Strong C/C++ skills for bare-metal or RTOS programming on ARM/RISC-V cores. Linux kernel-mode driver development experience is a strong plus\nProtocols: Deep knowledge of PCIe, AXI, DDR, and Ethernet. Familiarity with CXL or UAL is highly desirable\n Verification: Familiarity with UVM-based verification frameworks and emulation platforms (Palladium, Protium, Zebu)\nValidation: Proficiency with ILAs, high-speed oscilloscopes, and protocol analyzers for hardware debugging\nTools: Proficiency in Python, Tcl, Makefiles, and shell scripting for automation\nACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:\nBachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering\nALTERNATE LOCATION:\nLongmont, CO\nThis role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.\n#LI-RL1\nBenefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance.\nAMD does not accept unsolicited resumes from headhunters, recruitment agencies, or fee-based recruitment services. AMD and its subsidiaries are equal opportunity, inclusive employers and will consider all applicants without regard to age, ancestry, color, marital status, medical condition, mental or physical disability, national origin, race, religion, political and/or third-party affiliation, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, military or veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law. We encourage applications from all qualified candidates and will accommodate applicants’ needs under the respective laws throughout all stages of the recruitment and selection process.\nAMD may use Artificial Intelligence to help screen, assess or select applicants for this position.
