• System bring-up & validation enablement: support early hardware/software bring-up, readiness reviews, and validation planning across platform domains (HW, FW, OS/driver, power/thermal, RAS, serviceability) to ensure smooth customer and ODM progress.
• Design reviews & integration guidance: review customer/ODM designs and integration approach; identify risks and gaps early and drive closure actions with the right AMD domain teams.
• Issue triage and L1 debug leadership: lead problem definition, data collection, reproduction strategy, and initial triage for complex system issues; coordinate escalation to L2/domain experts and track issues to verified resolution.
• Cross-functional orchestration: align and drive execution across global engineering, program management, quality, support, and partner teams to meet program milestones and unblock customer deployment.

• ODM build & manufacturing support: support pilot builds and ramp readiness; advise on manufacturing screens/tests, firmware provisioning, service procedures, and field handling to enable stable production and deployment.
• Sustaining support: support post-launch issues and update adoption (e.g., firmware/software packages); help customers evaluate fixes, manage rollout risk, and ensure operational readiness.
• Voice of the customer: consolidate customer feedback into actionable asks for AMD (product gaps, tooling needs, reliability/serviceability improvements) and drive prioritization through the appropriate channels.

• Bachelor's degree or above in Electrical/Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or related field; equivalent practical experience considered.
• 10+ years of relevant experience in server / accelerator / data center platform engineering, product application engineering, systems integration, or customer-facing technical roles.
