When you join AMD, you’ll discover the real differentiator is our culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges—striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond.  Together, we advance your career.THE ROLE:
AMD seeks a passionate, collaborative leader with strong technical skills in the area of Design-for-Test (DFT) and the initiative to motivate an expert design team.  The successful candidate will lead a high performance central DFT design team to develop advanced DFT features, tools and flows for high performance, adaptive compute products for AI data center, emdedded, gaming and PC markets.

THE PERSON: The ideal candidate has experience leading DFT design projects from project definition to design bring-up.  You will establish a collaborative environment that fosters design innovation, verification know-hows and execution best practices.  You can lead others in technical and managerial settings, which include mentoring and providing technical guidance. You also have excellent communication, writing, and presentation skills.

• KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Team Leadership & Management:

• Lead and mentor a team of DFX engineers, fostering technical excellence, innovation, and collaboration.

• Manage project priorities, schedules, and deliverables to meet program milestones.

• Recruit, train, and develop engineering talent.

• DFT Strategy & Execution

• Work collaboratively with CDFX function Leads/Managers to define roadmap and drive DFT methodologies, flows, and best practices for complex CPU/GPU/SoC designs.

• Oversee implementation and verification of DFT RTL build, scan insertion, ATPG, BIST (MBIST, LBIST), boundary scan, and JTAG.

• Ensure seamless integration of DFT architecture into the overall design flow.

• Collaborate with SOC design and product engineering teams to ensure testability, debugability and manufacturability.

• Technical Ownership

• Provide hands-on guidance in DFT tool and flow usage (Siemens, Synopsys, … etc.) and debug.

• Drive innovation in low-power test methodologies, hierarchical DFT, and advanced fault models.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner with architecture, RTL design, verification, and physical design teams to ensure DFX requirements are met.

• Collaborate with SOC design and product engineering teams on strategic initiatives innovative DFT/DFD design solutions to ensure product testability, debuggability, manufacturability and quality.

• Interface with foundry and EDA vendors to adopt and deploy cutting-edge DFT solutions.

• Occasional travel per business need.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• A strong leader with experience working with a distributed team

• Strong mentoring and coaching skills

• Proven experience managing and leading a medium-sized engineering teams (better with 15-20 staffs)

• Experienced and skilled DFT design or DV on complex CPU/GPU SOC projects

• Strong system and software engineering background

• Strong communications skills. Able to summarize complex problems for executives as well as drill down to details with architects and engineers

• Strong analytic and problem-solving skills including the ability to analyze current behavior, identify potential areas for improvement and design of experiments

• Must be a self-starter and self-motivated

• Prior experience Managing technical teams
