TL;DR · RAS Architect

The RAS Architect will join the team to design and develop robust, resilient architectures for AMD products, specifically focusing on server and embedded systems in scale-out environments. The role involves defining reliability, availability, and serviceability requirements while identifying potential failure modes through failure mode and effects analysis. Key responsibilities include developing fault detection, isolation, recovery, redundancy, and error-correction mechanisms, as well as implementing advanced diagnostics and monitoring for proactive health management. The candidate will utilize skills in system-level architecture design, reliability engineering, and fault-tolerance mechanisms. Technical requirements include experience with C/C++ in Linux environments, Linux kernel internals, and system-level simulation tools like fault injection and reliability block diagrams. This position addresses the technical challenge of ensuring system resilience in complex computing environments.

What you'll do

  • Design and develop server and embedded RAS architectures for AMD products in scale-out environments.
  • Define and analyze reliability, availability, and serviceability requirements based on industry standards and customer needs.
  • Conduct failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) to identify potential points of failure and develop mitigation strategies.
  • Develop fault detection, isolation, recovery, redundancy, and error-correction mechanisms to improve system resilience.
  • Implement advanced diagnostics and monitoring capabilities for proactive system health management and predictive maintenance.
  • Conduct system-level simulations and testing to validate the effectiveness of RAS architectures and components.
  • Evaluate industry trends in fault-tolerance mechanisms to inform future system designs.
  • Support the full product lifecycle from initial architecture and design through implementation, debugging, and customer support.

What we're looking for

  • Design and develop server and embedded RAS architectures for AMD products, including scale-out environments.
  • Define and analyze reliability, availability, and serviceability requirements aligned with industry standards.
  • Conduct failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) and develop mitigation strategies with hardware and software teams.
  • Develop fault detection, isolation, recovery, redundancy, and error-correction mechanisms.
  • Implement advanced diagnostics and monitoring capabilities for proactive system health management.
  • Conduct system-level simulations, analysis, and testing to validate RAS architectures and components.
  • Experience with system-level architecture design, reliability engineering, and fault-tolerance mechanisms (preferred).
  • BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline (preferred).
