THE ROLE: 

The Infinity Fabric transport layer verification team is looking for a Design Verification Engineer to help verify the advanced interconnect technology at the heart of AMD's products.

In this role, you will work on configurable switches, transport-layer features, and die-to-die connectivity used across Client, Server, Graphics, and Semi-Custom products. You will collaborate with architecture, RTL design, firmware, and verification teams to solve complex technical challenges, strengthen verification methodologies, and help deliver high-quality silicon across AMD's product portfolio.

THE PERSON:  

You are passionate about processor architecture, digital design, and verification. You enjoy solving challenging technical problems, debugging complex behavior, and learning how interconnected systems work.

You are a collaborative team member with strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills. You work effectively with engineers across disciplines, locations, and time zones, and you are comfortable taking ownership of problems and driving them through resolution.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:  

• Define and execute verification strategies for complex Infinity Fabric features and subsystems with cross-project and cross-product impact
• Partner with architects, RTL designers, firmware engineers, and verification teams to influence feature definition, implementation, and verification readiness throughout the design cycle
• Own verification planning and execution for technically critical areas, including identifying risks, evaluating trade-offs, and developing mitigation strategies
• Develop robust, scalable verification environments and methodologies, including directed and constrained-random testing using SystemVerilog and UVM
• Debug complex interactions across testbenches, RTL, firmware, and architectural models and drive issues through resolution
• Solve complex and ambiguous verification challenges by developing new approaches or extending existing methodologies, processes, and infrastructure
• Analyze functional and code coverage and drive coverage closure strategies that balance quality, schedule, and compute efficiency
• Drive improvements to verification processes, tools, automation, and workflows that increase productivity, quality, and execution efficiency
• Collaborate across teams and programs to align verification activities, technical dependencies, and shared objectives
• Share technical knowledge, contribute to verification best practices, and support the technical development of the broader engineering team

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:  

• Proficiency in IP-level ASIC verification
• Experience debugging firmware and RTL using simulation and debugging tools
• Hands-on experience with UVM concepts, testbenches, and SystemVerilog
• Experience developing UVM-based verification frameworks, testbenches, processes, and flows
• Experience with Verilog, SystemVerilog, C, and C++
• Experience developing directed and constrained-random verification environments
• Experience with functional and code coverage analysis and coverage closure
• Experience automating verification workflows in distributed compute environments
• Exposure to simulation profiling, performance and efficiency improvements, acceleration, and HLS tools and processes
• Working knowledge of SystemC and TLM, with related hands-on experience
• Scripting experience with Perl, Ruby, Makefiles, shell, or similar languages
• Experience working with complex, highly configurable digital designs and subsystems
• Experience working in Linux and Windows environments
• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:  

• BS or MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science preferred.

LOCATION: Santa Clara, CA
