Job description

The role involves leading end-to-end hardware root cause analysis for server PCBAs, focusing on power delivery, PDBs, bridge boards, and board-level electrical interfaces. The engineer will work on isolating board-level issues through various analysis techniques and will partner with Systems Integration on firmware and platform topics. This position requires a hands-on technical lead with deep experience in server PCBA debug and the ability to navigate complex failures. The ideal candidate will also drive corrective actions across multiple engineering teams.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline.
  • Strong experience debugging server PDBs, bridge boards, and power distribution paths.
  • Hands-on proficiency with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and lab validation equipment.
  • Experience using Python, Linux tools, SQL, and shell scripting for automation.

Responsibilities

  • Lead hardware failure analysis and root cause ownership for server PCBA issues.
  • Identify whether failures stem from design, component quality, or manufacturing processes.
  • Develop diagnostic strategies and execute structured debug plans.
  • Perform board- and component-level electrical debug for various failure types.
  • Validate hardware behavior using lab instrumentation and fault isolation methods.
  • Create clear technical reports and documentation that communicate failure modes and corrective actions.
  • Lead cross-functional RCA reviews to isolate failures and drive corrective actions.

Benefits

  • AMD provides a competitive 'Total Rewards' package that focuses on financial growth, health, and work-life balance.
