THE ROLE:

AMD is looking for a Technical Lead with strong experience in DevOps, CI/CD, and modern source control practices.

• Experience designing developer platforms, build systems, or internal tools at scale.
• Proven ability to lead complex technical programs and influence across teams.
• Skilled in creating and maintaining detailed project artifacts such as technical specifications, migration plans, RACI matrices, and risk logs.
• Demonstrated track record of improving operational processes, workflows, or organizational efficiency through structured program leadership.
• Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to both deeply technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong communication skills, with experience driving alignment among diverse engineering stakeholders.
