TL;DR · ASIC/SoC Design Engineer in San Jose, California | Advanced Micro Devices, Inc

AMD seeks a senior microarchitectural designer to join its Adaptive SoC and FPGA Configuration team. This role involves crafting detailed specifications and implementing RTL for next-generation FPGA configuration controllers, collaborating closely with hardware, firmware, and software teams to ensure seamless integration across all phases of the design cycle. Key responsibilities include driving design from concept through production silicon, integrating complex blocks into full-chip environments, partnering with verification teams for comprehensive coverage, and working with test engineers on DFT features. The ideal candidate has a strong background in ASIC design, proficiency in Verilog, SystemVerilog, and SVA, experience with industry-standard CAD tools, and scripting skills in Perl, Python, and Makefile. Knowledge of AMBA protocols and multi-power domain designs is preferred, making this role crucial for optimizing performance, power, and area metrics in cutting-edge FPGA configurations.

What you'll do

  • Author detailed micro-architecture specification and own RTL implementation of next-gen FPGA Configuration controller.
  • Drive design from concept through production silicon, including verification and physical design integration.
  • Integrate complex configuration blocks into full-chip environment to ensure proper connectivity and clock domain crossings.
  • Partner with verification teams to ensure comprehensive functional coverage for the configuration system.
  • Work closely with test engineers to implement DFT features and reduce test time.

What we're looking for

  • Proven experience in ASIC design and microarchitectural specification.
  • Expertise in Verilog, SystemVerilog, and SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA).
  • Proficiency with industry-standard CAD tools for simulation and verification.
  • Strong knowledge of on-chip interconnect protocols like AMBA AXI/AXI-S/APB.
  • Experience in multi-power domain designs and UPF implementation.
  • Excellent collaboration skills across hardware and software teams.
