About the job
ADVANCE YOUR CAREER. ADVANCE THE WORLD. At 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.
Whether 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.
THE ROLE:
We are seeking a dynamic and experienced Power IP and System Validation Engineer to join our growing Systems Design Engineering team. In this high-visibility role, you will drive post-silicon bring-up, characterization, and validation of analog and mixed-signal power-management IP for advanced AMD products.
You will work at the intersection of silicon, firmware, systems, and laboratory validation to evaluate IP performance, troubleshoot complex hardware and software interactions, and optimize power-management features across operating conditions. You will collaborate closely with analog mixed-signal design, RTL, platform firmware, validation, and production teams to resolve technical issues and support the delivery of high-quality, industry-leading technologies.
The Systems Design Engineering team encourages continuous technical innovation, cross-functional collaboration, and career development. Your work will help improve AMD’s validation capabilities, influence future IP designs, and contribute directly to successful product delivery.
You are a detail-oriented systems engineer with strong analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills. You enjoy working at the intersection of silicon, firmware, and software and can independently drive complex technical issues to resolution. You communicate effectively and thrive in a collaborative, cross-functional engineering environment.
THE PERSON:
You are a technically curious and highly analytical systems engineer who enjoys solving complex problems at the intersection of hardware, firmware, and software. You bring a structured and data-driven approach to silicon debug, characterization, and root-cause analysis.
You communicate effectively across technical disciplines, take ownership of challenging assignments, and can independently drive work to completion. You are detail-oriented, collaborative, and comfortable providing technical direction in a fast-paced product-development environment.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Lead post-silicon bring-up, characterization, and validation of analog and mixed-signal power-management IP, including integrated voltage regulators, low-dropout regulators, system-monitoring sensors, and power-gating controllers.
- Develop and execute characterization plans to evaluate IP performance against specifications across voltage, frequency, temperature, and process conditions.
- Analyze silicon measurement data and tune IP operating parameters, including voltage-frequency curves, voltage margins, power-gating sequences, and oscillator calibration.
- Develop and maintain firmware routines and control algorithms that configure and operate power-management IP during boot, runtime, and power-state transitions.
- Debug silicon failures and performance shortfalls by correlating laboratory measurements, firmware traces, register activity, RTL behavior, and schematic-level design information.
- Partner with analog mixed-signal design, RTL, platform firmware, validation, and production teams to resolve characterization findings and support engineering change orders when appropriate.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
Post-Silicon Validation and Laboratory Debug
- Strong experience with post-silicon bring-up, debug, validation, and characterization.
- Experience characterizing analog or mixed-signal power-management IP on CPU, GPU, or other complex SoC platforms.
- Experience with board-level and platform-level debug, including power delivery, sequencing, analysis, and optimization. <span data-ccp-props=
