This role involves defining product and system architecture by analyzing outside-in usage cases and mapping them across a broad spectrum of technologies to ensure a holistic, constrained system spanning silicon, platform hardware, and software. The architect will collaborate with internal stakeholders and customers to define requirements for high-performance computing, server, and mega data center applications while balancing performance, power, and cost. Key technical areas include memory, I/O, signal integrity, power delivery, thermal management, boot processes, firmware, and BMC hardware management. Required expertise includes deep knowledge of industry standards such as DDR, PCIe, and SATA. The role focuses on solving complex problems in cloud computing, AI, and virtualization environments through innovative system hardware design.

What you'll do

  • Define product and system architecture for EPYC processors and Instinct GPU products.
  • Analyze outside-in usage cases to map technical requirements across silicon, hardware, and software.
  • Develop a cohesive technical vision for end-to-end architectures that prioritize scalability and performance.
  • Collaborate with internal architects and external customers to define specifications for power, cost, and performance.
  • Research and develop next-generation datacenter compute designs to improve overall system performance.
  • Influence the roadmap of future products by contributing to architecture and technology execution.
  • Resolve complex engineering problems related to memory, I/O, signal integrity, and power management.
  • Communicate technical results to leadership and partners to drive alignment on final solutions.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in electrical or computer engineering.
  • Expertise in server and GPU products across architecture, development, design, and production release.
  • Deep knowledge of memory, I/O, signal integrity, power delivery, thermal, and hardware management.
  • Detailed understanding of server industry standards including DDR, PCIe, and SATA.
  • Proven track record of collaborating with technology companies to engineer products based on new SoCs, CPUs, and chipsets.
  • Ability to work across engineering disciplines and geographies to deliver results.
  • Strong analytical problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to independently drive tasks to completion as a self-starter.
