Lead Board Design Hardware Development Engineer

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Hyderabad, India · Engineering

This role is for a Lead Board Design Hardware Development Engineer at AMD, focusing on designing, developing, and testing high-speed hardware platforms. The engineer will be responsible for schematics, BOM, leading hardware resources, and working with cross-functional teams. Experience in the complete hardware development lifecycle, mixed-signal design, high-speed board design, power design, embedded microprocessors, bus protocols, and high-speed I/Os is required. Familiarity with EDA tools, simulation tools, lab equipment, and SI/PI simulation tools is also mentioned.

What you'd actually do

  1. Responsible for project deliverables like detailed design specifications, schematics and BOM
  2. Responsible for leading 2-3 hardware resources in delivering the Hardware Designs
  3. Work with cross functional teams, understand the design requirements, design the system/ subsystem and participate in the design reviews
  4. Design schematics of digital, mix signal & power electronics circuits that satisfy the design requirements
  5. Interact with PCB layout teams and finalize the component placement considering the Mechanical and SI/PI constraints
