Whether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or bringing leading edge products to market, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger — technology that moves the world forward. Join us and, together, we’ll advance your career.
The Role
In the MI Platform Power Design Team, we design high-technology platforms for world-class products based on AMD’s Instinct Graphics Processing Units (GPU’s). Our team plays a major part in architecting and shaping every graphics board offered by AMD. We design cutting-edge power converters for our discrete graphics boards that retail around the world. Facing always more stringent demands in terms of the current level, efficiency, and responsiveness, these designs are essential to maximize the performance from our GPU’s in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
Key Responsibilities
The successful candidate would be responsible for supporting the architecture, design, analysis, and verification of power systems intended for powering high performance CPUs/GPUs/APUs. The engineer will work with cross-functional teams to design and implement a full power delivery network, model and validate PDN impedance and droop targets, and verify power supply integrity using lab and in-situ silicon measurements. The candidate is expected to work and guide the system’s design team to provide optimum component selection and detailed layout guidelines during the design execution phase. In addition, the candidate is expected to work with the Board Validation team to develop test plans/procedures to perform system-level validation for characterizing design margins on the power domains. Other responsibilities include:
Work with SoC and System Architects and external industry to drive the latest power delivery technologies and innovations for computers and electronics industry.
Analyze and compare solutions, and then drive team insights and architecture forward into system implementation, SoC silicon, and power delivery silicon.
Conduct feasibility studies and work with development teams to deliver solutions.
Technically mentor junior power engineers in the team and verify their design and validation work.
Preferred Qualifications
Proven technical understanding of power supply architectures and PDN in server, OAM, and PCIe environments.
Understanding of needed design and validation processes to design power circuits for high quality/reliability requirements.
Understanding and experience with multi-phase buck/buck-boost regulators, digital PWM controllers, bus converters, LDOs, PMICs, charge pumps, ADCs & DACs, etc
Working knowledge of 2D/2.5D EM simulation tools such as Sigrity’s PowerDC, PowerSI, SiWave or equivalent
Strong knowledge of high frequency magnetics design for power electronics
Printed circuit board design experience is a must.
Expertise in schematic capture, PCB design tools such as OrCAD or Allegro
Ability to work with multiple cross functional teams to make the right trade-offs on system level performance.
Excellent knowledge of control theory, closed loop compensation, stability analysis, phase margin, etc.
Proficiency with lab equipment such as oscilloscope, eload, function generator, etc.
Experience with analog circuit modeling and simulation tools (e.g. Simplis, PSpice, HSpice etc.) required.
Must have good written and verbal communication skills.
Knowledge of AMD’s SVIx power management interface
Academic Credentials & Experience
Bachelor’s or Master's degree (preferred) in Electrical Engineering
