Silicon Design Engineer

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Austin, TX · 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 definition, design, verification, and documentation for ASIC development, including architecture design, logic design, system simulation, module interfaces, and multidimensional designs for integrated circuits. The engineer will evaluate the process flow from high-level designs to synthesis, place and route, and timing and power use, working on problems of moderate scope. The role requires experience in C, C++, or Python; Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL; Unix or Linux environments; CPU or SoC architecture; logic and circuit design; ASIC design tools; and large scale ASIC chip physical design.

What you'd actually do

  1. Research, design, develop, and/or test electronic components and systems for semiconductor and related device manufacturing, employing knowledge of electronic theory.
  2. Perform definition, design, verification, and/or documentation for ASIC development.
  3. Determine architecture design, logic design, and/or system simulation.
  4. Contribute to the development of multidimensional designs involving the layout of complex integrated circuits.
  5. Evaluate all aspects of the process flow from high-level designs to synthesis, place and route, and timing and power use.
