Silicon Design Engineer

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Santa Clara, CA · Engineering

AMD is hiring a Silicon Design Engineer to research, design, develop, and/or test electronic components and systems for semiconductor and related device manufacturing. This role involves performing definition, design, verification, and/or documentation for ASIC development, determining architecture design, logic design, and system simulation, and contributing to multidimensional designs involving the layout of complex integrated circuits. The engineer will evaluate all aspects of the process flow from high-level designs to synthesis, place and route, and timing and power use, working on problems of moderate scope where analysis of situations or data requires a review of a variety of factors. The role requires experience in C, C++, or Python; Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL; RTL design and coding; logic and circuit design; CPU, GPU, or SoC architecture; and ASIC design and ASIC design tools (synthesis, simulation, equivalence checking, static timing analysis).
