Interconnect Firmware Engineer

What you'll do

• Develop and enable firmware features for the Infinity Fabric interconnect across multiple AMD product lines.
• Design, document, unit test, and debug firmware for both pre- and post-silicon environments.
• Enhance Python-based tools to process complex datasets for generating hardware initialization binaries.
• Build infrastructure in Python or C/C++ to collect, process, and validate hardware initialization data.
• Define firmware scope and implementation details in collaboration with architects and IP leads.
• Perform unit and integration testing across emulation, simulation, and post-silicon platforms.
• Participate in design and code reviews to ensure software quality, reliability, and maintainability.

What we're looking for

• Hold a BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• Experience with firmware development, integration, and validation for SoC designs in pre- and post-silicon environments.
• Strong proficiency in low-level C programming for embedded systems including debugging and performance optimization.
• Proficiency in Python and Linux scripting for data parsing, automation, and processing.
• Solid understanding of computer architecture concepts such as memory interleaving, system memory maps, and NUMA domains.
• Experience with board, processor, or ASIC bring-up using simulation and/or emulation platforms.
• Familiarity with hardware/software interfaces and structured debugging at the IP, subsystem, or system level.
• Experience using source control and code review systems such as Git and Gerrit.
