You’ll work closely with architecture, design, and post‑silicon teams to identify and resolve complex systems, improving future debug and test features.

This position involves developing automation, refining validation processes, executing test cases, analyzing data and driving system‑level quality across AMD’s product portfolio. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds who bring curiosity, technical depth, and a commitment to innovation.

• Create and execute test procedures to validate the design of various system components on the next generation of machine learning architectures, including all components of servers such as CPU, GPU, memory, BIOS, BMC, IO, storage, and networking.
• Translate system specs into a robust system integration test plan.
• Make improvements to system‑level integration test strategies, methodologies, and processes.
• Collaborate with multi‑functional HW and SW teams to debug and tackle complex issues.
• Develop and improve automation features according to requirements.
• Monitor and analyze the execution of automated tests at scale (for hundreds or thousands of systems).

• Post‑silicon system integration and system testing.
• Debugging skills at SoC (System on a Chip) and system level.
• Ability to validate at cluster‑level (scale‑up and scale‑out).
• Experience with computer architecture concepts and silicon features.
• Prior experience working on servers.
• Ability to program in Python is a must; other languages are a bonus.
• Excellent knowledge of current machine learning technologies in the data center.
• Effective communication skills, including influencing and working across large multi‑functional HW, SW, and architecture teams.
