Description



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, gaming and embedded systems. Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuity and a shared passion to create something extraordinary. When you join AMD, you'll discover 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:

You will work on AMD's Reconfigurable Acceleration Platform boards. This is a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) compliant board featuring the newest AMD products. This AMD FPGA-based PCIe accelerator board is designed to accelerate compute-intensive applications like machine learning, data analytics, and video processing.

 

THE PERSON:

You will have strong written and verbal communication skills and a systematic approach to your job. A team player, you are used to delivering results in a fast-paced environment.

 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Perform platform-level diagnostics and failure analysis across complex compute hardware, including accelerator cards, FPGA-based boards, DPUs, SmartNICs, and server-level platforms.
  • Lead board-level fault isolation down to component level, covering electrical, functional, and high-speed interface failures.
  • Support RMA investigations end-to-end, from initial screening to deep-dive fault isolation and cross-functional root cause alignment with firmware, driver, and silicon teams.
  • Replicate customer system and application environments to reproduce failures and validate fixes in a controlled lab setup.
  • Debug system-level interactions across multi-tray or multi-rack configurations, including power sequencing and communication links.

 

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

  • Technical Skill Requirements:
    • Strong capability in component-level fault isolation, including use of schematics, board layouts, and BOMs to drive accurate diagnosis and correlate failures with potential root causes.
    • Debug issues across power delivery, digital interfaces (I²C, SPI, PCIe, USB), high-speed SERDES links, and analog circuits; identify opens/shorts, marginal solder joints, passive failures.
    • XJTAG diagnostic development: integrate and develop XJTAG boundary-scan test suites for interconnect tests, device verification, and improved diagnostic coverage.
    • Deep knowledge of PCIe and Ethernet high-speed interfaces, signal integrity concepts, link training, and debug methodology. Hands-on experience with iBERT or equivalent SerDes test platforms for high-speed channel characterization and margin analysis.
    • Accelerator / FPGA Platform Diagnostics (Generalized ALVEO-Class Boards): diagnose issues related to FPGA configuration, on-board power, DDR/HBM interfaces; understand how boards interact in a system and impact functional performance and failure modes.
    • Linux & System Debug: proficient with Ubuntu, CentOS, and related commands; network bring-up; basic scripting (Bash/Python) for automated diagnostics.
  • Soft Skills Requirements:
    • Strong analytical and structured problem-solving ability.
    • Clear communicator with ability to summarize technical findings for management or cross-functional teams.
    • Collaborative and comfortable working with hardware, firmware, and system-level teams.
    • Document diagnostic methodologies and share knowledge to build team capability.


ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in related discipline preferred
