Rtl/logic Design Engineer

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Santa Clara, CA · Engineering

This role is for an RTL/Logic Design Engineer at AMD, focusing on the Graphics Memory Controller (GMC) IP for Discrete GPUs and Instinct accelerators. The engineer will participate in architecture and micro-architecture specifications, perform RTL coding for new features, and work with verification engineers. The role requires experience in digital design, high-speed memory interfaces (HBM, GDDR), Verilog, and industry-standard CAD tools, with a focus on meeting timing, power, and area requirements.

What you'd actually do

  1. Participate in the development of Architecture and Micro-architecture specifications for the Logic components.
  2. Perform logic design, Register Transfer Level (RTL) coding for new features within existing blocks and design new blocks supporting HBM and GDDR DRAM Technologies
  3. Work with Verification Engineers to effectively communicate and resolve issues from test plan through feature bring up to coverage closure
