AMD
Senior Staff Silicon Design Engineer – AMD
The Role As a Senior Staff SoC PnP Engineer, you will own deep‑dives post‑silicon analysis and tuning across power, thermal, and performance KPIs.
The Person You will collaborate with cross‑functional teams, including architects, design engineers, validation teams, and marketing, to deliver industry‑leading SoC solutions with optimized power efficiency and performance.
Key Responsibilities
Drive post‑silicon PnP validation, including profiling and measuring EDC/TDC, thermal behavior, frequency scaling, droop characteristics.
Perform detailed silicon debug across power rails, telemetry, DVS behavior, and PMIC interactions.
Tune power management knobs and firmware parameters to optimize performance.
Correlate silicon results with pre‑silicon models; identify gaps and propose fixes.
Plan and execute post‑silicon validation for power/performance/thermal (PVT sweeps, Vmin/Fmax characterization, transient droop analysis).
Automate data collection/analysis pipelines; develop dashboards for KPIs and regression tracking.
Debug HW/FW/driver issues affecting PnP; apply fusing/FW tuning to close gaps.
Collaborate with architecture/DV/FW/platform teams on root cause and fixes; document tuning guides.
Preferred Experience
Experience in SoC silicon validation or PnP engineering.
Strong Python scripting and lab debug skills (scope, logic analyzer, PMIC tools).
Good understanding of CPU/GPU performance and power telemetry.
Experience in automotive, industrial, or high‑reliability SoCs is a big plus.
Academic Credentials
Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related field.
