SMTS SILICON DESIGN ENGINEER

THE ROLE:

AMD is looking for an experienced and highly motivated Senior Member of Technical Staff (PMTS) to join the CT Physical Design team. In this role, you will drive the physical implementation of industry-leading high-speed interface IPs including DDR, LPDDR, GDDR, PCIe, and other next-generation mixed-signal PHY solutions used across client, server, and graphics products.  As a technical leader, you will work closely with architects, circuit designers, RTL, package, power integrity, signal integrity, SoC, and methodology teams to define and implement innovative physical design solutions that achieve aggressive PPA, frequency, power, and schedule goals on advanced process nodes.  The ideal candidate combines deep physical design expertise with strong leadership capabilities and a proven track record of delivering complex, high-performance IPs to production.

THE PERSON:

You are passionate about solving complex physical design challenges in advanced semiconductor technologies. You thrive in fast-paced environments, influence technical direction beyond your immediate team, and enjoy mentoring engineers while driving innovation in implementation methodologies.  You possess deep understanding of high-speed digital and mixed-signal design implementation and have successfully delivered multiple tape-outs in advanced technology nodes.

KEY RESPONSIBLITIES:

• Lead physical design implementation of complex high-speed IPs such as DDR/LPDDR/GDDR PHYs, PCIe, SerDes, and related subsystems.
• Own end-to-end implementation activities
• Drive high-frequency timing closure for challenging datapaths and clock distribution networks.
• Partner with architects and circuit designers to optimize PHY architectures for performance, power, and implementation efficiency.
• Develop and deploy innovative implementation methodologies to improve design quality, productivity, and scalability.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Architecture, RTL, AMS, Package, SI/PI, Product Engineering, SoC, CAD, and EDA vendors.
• Provide technical leadership for multiple projects and influence implementation strategies across organizational boundaries.
• Mentor junior engineers and help grow the technical capability of the organization.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives in automation, AI-assisted design methodologies, and signoff flows.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• 12+ years of industry experience in Physical Design for advanced semiconductor products.
• Proven track record delivering multiple successful tape-outs on advanced technology nodes (N3/N4/N5 or equivalent).
• Extensive experience with high-performance and high-speed interface IPs
• Deep expertise in one of the fields: Timing, EMIR, clock tree, physical verification
• Expertise with industry-standard EDA tools including Cadence and Synopsys implementation/signoff flows.
• Experience driving methodology development and automation.
• Demonstrated leadership across cross-functional teams and geographies.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering
