If youre excited by AI disruption and want to be part of building something big, join us. THE ROLE: As a member of the AECG-Embedded X86 SOC architecture team, you will help bring to life cuttingedge designs. You will work closely with IP design, Physical Design teams, and product engineers to achieve first pass silicon success. THE PERSON: A successful candidate will work with senior silicon architects. The candidate will be highly accurate and detailoriented, possessing good communication and problemsolving skills. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: Lead SoC architecture: define processor complex, interconnect/NoC, memory controllers/DRAM topology, IOMMU hierarchy, security islands, and subsystem boundaries; write clear architecture specifications and drive reviews to closure. Own platform power & reset intent: specify PWROK/PWROKRAW/reset/iso sequencing across rails and domains; ensure asynchronous PWROK deassertion behavior meets EGADS and safety requirements; partner with board/VR teams and FCH/ART owners. SOC Features ownership: Define and drive SOC features Static timing analysis definitions: work with IP, process and product teams to define STA strategies Highspeed I/O architecture: architect PCIe Gen5/Gen6 RC/EP topologies, NTB links, Ethernet MAC/PHY integration, clocking, lane bifurcation, and PHY interfaces; align controller programming models with NBIO/SYSHUB wrappers. Performance, power, and reliability modeling: establish CAC targets for GFX/NPU, guardbands/aging models using ARO/RO monitors, and close V/F/tj operating points with mission profiles; collaborate with quality teams on longlife reliability. Functional safety (FuSa) & RAS: work with IP teams to allocate FuSa and RAS requirements, trace to Jama/PRS, and align external auditors and customer expectations; ensure ISO26262 compliance plans are executable. Crossfunctional leadership: partner with program management and customer engineers on headline specs (CPU/GPU/NoC sizing, DRAM speed/width, PCIe/Ethernet/NTB), schedules, and deliverables; clarify AMD vs. customer roles and responsibilities. Documentation & reviews: maintain MAS/mPRS/PRS artifacts, reset/power specs, and architectural confluence pages; drive HLD concept exits and LS(ABCD) milestones. REFERRED EXPERIENCE: X86, GPU, interconnect, HSIO, Memory subsystems architecture RAS Performance and Power bounding box definitions Familiarity with BIOS/FW/SW/Systems Embedded markets (automotive/networking/industrial) SOC design and execution ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering Benefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance AMD does not accept unsolicited resumes from headhunters, recruitment agencies, or feebased recruitment services.
