The engineer will collaborate with various teams to optimize performance, power, area, and schedule. Ideal candidates will possess strong analytical skills and a commitment to innovation in chip performance.
Requirements
- Experience with high-speed SRAM design, memory design, or memory-centric physical implementation is preferred.
- Strong understanding of CPU, cache, or other performance-critical digital designs is required.
- Knowledge of chip-level floorplanning, bus and pin planning, and timing closure is necessary.
- Familiarity with scripting or programming languages such as Tcl, Perl, C, or Python is advantageous.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field is preferred.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to the physical design and implementation of high-speed SRAM and memory structures for advanced CPU products.
- Work closely with architecture, RTL, circuit design, and physical design teams to optimize power, performance, area, and schedule.
- Perform floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, timing closure, and design optimization activities.
- Analyze and resolve implementation, timing, power, and signoff challenges.
- Develop creative solutions to complex design and tool-related problems.
- Create and deliver technical presentations, design reviews, and documentation for engineering teams and management.
Benefits
- AMD provides a competitive 'Total Rewards' package that focuses on financial growth, health, and work-life balance.
