AMD's Software and Solutions Team is seeking a Solution Engineering technical leader to accelerate the integration and adoption of AMD technology across the open software ecosystem. This role will define and deliver production-oriented solutions that connect AMD CPUs, GPUs, DPUs, networking, memory, and software platforms with the operating systems, databases, runtimes, APIs, developer frameworks, and cloud-native services customers use to build and operate modern infrastructure.

The role will bridge AMD architecture and the broader open ecosystem by creating reference architectures, upstream integrations, reusable software components, validated deployment patterns, and early customer proof-of-concepts. Primary focus areas include Linux and other operating-system kernels, runtime and system services, database and data-platform enablement, API layers, Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations, container and orchestration environments, observability, security, and performance engineering.

Working across AMD + AMD (A+A) and AMD + NVIDIA (A+N) environments and leveraging ROCm™, AMD Zen Software Studio, AMD Enterprise AI
, open-source projects, industry standards, and upstream communities, this leader will make AMD platforms easier to adopt, integrate, operate, and optimize. AI is one supported workload domain—particularly inference, retrieval, developer tooling, and data-intensive services—but the role is fundamentally centered on open systems integration and solution engineering.

As a recognized technical authority, this individual will collaborate with silicon architecture, product engineering, software organizations, customers, hyperscalers, ISVs, standards bodies, and open-source communities. The role will influence AMD hardware and software roadmaps through implementation evidence, workload analysis, ecosystem gaps, customer requirements, and measurable improvements in compatibility, performance, scalability, security, manageability, and developer experience.

This is a highly technical, hands‑on individual contributor role focused on architecture, integration, implementation, performance engineering, and ecosystem leadership. It is not a people management, program management, or alliance management position.

A deeply technical solution engineer and systems architect with broad expertise across operating systems, kernel and driver interfaces, runtime services, databases, distributed systems, APIs, cloud-native infrastructure, heterogeneous computing, networking, storage, virtualization, security, and performance engineering. This individual has a record of turning platform capabilities into integrated, supportable solutions that customers and open-source communities can deploy at scale.

The ideal candidate understands how applications move through API, middleware, runtime, kernel, driver, firmware, and hardware layers, and how data moves across transactional databases, analytical platforms, caches, object stores, and retrieval systems. They can diagnose integration barriers, contribute production-quality code, shape stable interfaces, and optimize end-to-end behavior across AMD and third‑party components.
