The Role:

We are seeking a Senior Director, Customer Program Management — Data Center GPU to lead end-to-end program execution and customer success for AMD’s datacenter GPU products. This leader will own program strategy and delivery across OEM/ODM partners, Cloud service providers (CSPs), and end clients to drive platform development, cluster deployment & performance tuning and ensure final customer satisfaction for AMD DC GPU solutions. This role will align cross-functional business development, engineering, product, support, and GTM teams to accelerate customer ramp, protect relationships, and maximize adoption and uptime of AMD datacenter GPU deployments.

The Person:

The ideal candidate combines strong technical credibility in datacenter GPU systems and large-scale deployments with proven leadership

in program and customer management. They operate effectively in a globally distributed, matrixed organization, translate customer requirements into executable programs, and drive disciplined, cross-functional execution from design-through-deployment and into sustained operations. Experience working directly with OEMs/ODMs, CSPs and AI end customers on platform development, validation, cluster bring-up, performance optimization, and post-deployment support is essential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end customer programs for datacenter GPU engagements, from platform definition with OEM/ODM partners through cluster deployment and long-term operational success.
• •Drive customer satisfaction and uptime targets by coordinating engineering, system validation, software stack (ROCm/ecosystem) integration, performance tuning, and support teams to resolve issues rapidly and prevent recurrence.
• Lead technical engagements for proof-of-concept, development, validation, performance tuning, and production ramp with CSPs, OEMs/ODMs, systems integrators, and direct enterprise customers.
• Define and enforce program governance, milestones, KPIs (e.g., time-to-production, uptime, MTTR), risk mitigation plans, and communication cadence with stakeholders.
• Partner with Product Management and Engineering to provide customer-driven feedback on hardware, firmware, and software priorities and influence roadmaps to meet end-client performance and feature needs.
• Oversee customer-facing support and escalation processes, including second-level engineering support, release coordination, and software/firmware upgrade strategies.
• Develop and scale repeatable playbooks, tools, and validation methodologies for large-scale deployments and cluster management to improve time-to-value and reliability.
• Represent AMD in senior customer and partner forums, negotiate technical and operational commitments, and lead cross-functional response to major incidents.
• Collaborate with GTM, marketing, and partner teams to enable instance/product positioning, case studies, and customer references that accelerate adoption.

Preferred Experience:

• Proven track record leading large, cross-functional customer programs for datacenter GPUs, accelerators, or server platforms with OEM/ODM and CSP partners.
• Extensive relevant technical and management experience, including significant experience with datacenter hardware and software program execution.
• Deep understanding of datacenter infrastructure, server architectures, Linux, containerization, virtualization, and GPU software stacks (ROCm/driver ecosystem) and performance tuning methodologies.
• Experience driving proof-of-concept to production ramps at scale, managing complex validation, debug, and release activities in post-silicon environments.
• Strong operational discipline with experience defining KPIs (uptime, MTTR, deployment velocity) and delivering measurable improvements.
• Excellent executive communication skills and experience engaging at senior customer and partner leadership levels.
• Background in program management, systems engineering, customer success, or technical account management at scale.

Academic Credentials:

• • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related technical field; advanced degree preferred.
