THE ROLE:

The product characterization team is looking for a highly motivated individual to help evaluate the performance of AMD Adaptive System-on-Chip (SoC) and FPGA products. As part of the product characterization team, you will plan, develop and execute characterization test patterns to help guarantee design margins, speed specifications and silicon performance across device operating conditions and process corners. Your key focus will be on high-performance hardened IP within our Adaptive SoC products, including the processor subsystem and related subsystems.

THE PERSON:

The ideal candidate for this role is driven, motivated and innovative. We value open an exchange of feedback and ideas, a strong teamwork culture and being able to deliver on our commitments.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Developing, executing and debugging characterization test suites in hardware and software for measuring the performance and design margins of hardened IP and subsystems with respect to parameters such as timing, frequency and voltage.
• Porting, maintaining and tracking test patterns, automation scripts and test flows between different pre- and post-silicon test platforms, including ATE.
• Collecting and analyzing characterization data across the full range of device operating conditions and device volume to generate characterization reports and insights based on silicon trends.
• Working with cross-functional teams to correlate data, debug and resolve issues.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Experience of SoC or FPGA pre- or post-silicon validation, with ATE experience a plus
• Logic design skills in VHDL or Verilog / SystemVerilog and an understanding of EDA tools
• Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python, Tcl or Perl
• Proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems
• Knowledge of embedded processor systems and on-chip interconnects will beneficial
• Understanding of statistical analysis

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• BS or MS in EE, CS, ECE or related field
