The Role Be part of AMD’s analog/mixed signal IP design team responsible for the design and development of next‑generation IOs, high speed memory (LPDDRx, gDDRx, HBMx) and die‑to‑die Gbps proprietary PHY IP solutions. Establish AMD’s technological leadership position in analog circuit architecture and design with a proven track record for problem solving and innovation.
The Person The ideal candidate has experience leading others in technical settings and possesses excellent communication, writing, and presentation skills.
Key Responsibilities
High Speed IO/SerDes AMS circuit architecture and design
Lead definition, review and sign‑off on analog/mixed signal IP top‑level architecture and component/circuit level specifications
Work and collaborate with System/Platform & SOC architects to translate system level specs to AMS blocks/circuit level specifications
Author AMS blocks circuit and architecture technical specifications, AMS pre‑silicon verification, AMS post‑silicon characterization/validation test plans
Supervise pre‑silicon layout, post‑silicon characterization and debug
Support product bring‑up and debug, and sign‑off on test‑plans and characterization reports
Preferred Experience
Hand‑on design experience in multi‑Gbps serial (PCIE, USB, …), parallel high BW memory interface PHY/IOs (DDR4/DDR5, HBM2/HBM3, gDDR5/gDDR6, …) and chip‑to‑chip links PHY IPs
Strong fundamentals and knowledge of mixed signal circuit architecture and design techniques for receiver/transmitter and PLL/DLL/clocking. In‑depth knowledge of analog mixed‑signal concepts such as mismatch mitigation, linearity, stability, low‑power and low‑noise techniques
Solid experience of designing and architecting analog mixed‑signal circuit blocks including DLLs, phase interpolator, low‑jitter clock distribution, bandgap, biasing circuits, LDO regulators, amplifiers, comparators, high‑speed DACs and ADCs. Experience in mixed signal design circuit blocks such as digital/analog DLLs, duty cycle corrector, clock and data recovery, clock mixer, …
Solid understanding of high‑speed IO signaling topologies and architectures including system‑silicon co‑design/co‑optimizations for best in class PPA
Solid understanding of high speed IO link budget analysis and jitter/SNR metrics and design trades
Experience in low power design techniques for high speed/custom digital circuit (e.g. CMOS/CML high speed design for counters, dividers, …) design and analysis including transistor level timing sign‑off
Solid understanding of power, area and performance trade‑offs in mixed signal IP design
Design Experience in FinFET advanced CMOS process nodes 16nm/7nm/3nm and below combined with a solid understanding of transistor device performance and fundamentals
Proficient in AMS design flows, tools, and methodologies. Familiar with Cadence schematic capture, Virtuoso, Spectre and/or HSPICE circuit simulation tools
Work with project‑manager, system architects, IC designers and physical designers to guarantee quality/timely deliverables meeting project’s schedule and technical requirements
Analytical thinking, inventive, and quality‑oriented mindset. Strong and effective technical and management communication at the peer and upward management levels
Track record of successfully taking AMS designs to production
Excellent written and verbal communication skills able to operate without direct supervision but also work cross‑functionally, cross‑geographies collaborating and being part of a multi‑disciplinary team in a dynamic/fast‑paced environment
Exhibit strong initiative and ownership of tasks and responsibilities. Seek help proactively as well as share and pass on knowledge
Academic Credentials
MS or PhD in Electrical, Computer Engineering or related equivalent
Location San Jose, California
