THE ROLE:

This role is ideal for a strategic thinker who thrives in solving large-scale technical challenges without losing sight of execution realities. You are:

• A visionary and a builder; someone who can define and improve DV frameworks that will last through generations of silicon.
• A mentor and a unifier, guiding diverse teams across geographies and backgrounds, aligning them to a shared DV mission.
• Comfortable influencing without authority and leading through technical credibility
• Motivated by impact, not just doing DV but transforming how it’s done at scale.

THE PERSON:

A detail‑oriented and collaborative engineer who communicates clearly across global teams and thrives in complex, fast‑paced technical environments. They proactively solve problems, take ownership of deliverables, and support team success through steady leadership, strong analytical thinking, and a commitment to high‑quality execution.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Define and own the overall DV testplan/methodology for HUB/Router design, ensuring scalability across variants and generations.
• Collaborate closely with architects, design, emulation, and Subsystem verification leads to build aligned verification strategies.
• Provide technical mentorship and strategic direction to DV leads and engineers across global AMD sites.
• Anticipate architectural and verification risks early and drive systemic solutions before they impact delivery.
• Influence cross-functional decision-making through a blend of technical insight and collaborative communication.
• Champion long-term DV innovation by staying current on AI/ML techniques, formal verification, and emulation strategies, and knowing when to integrate them into project flow.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Expertise in Design Verification with an emphasis on system architecture and PCIe protocol layer verification, or strong AI/ML deployment experience
• Strong grasp of DV methodologies: coverage-driven verification, formal, and infrastructure strategy.
• Solid understanding of computer architecture fundamentals: pipelines, routing, ordering, caching, coherency, load/store, etc.
• Strong documentation, planning, and cross-functional coordination skills.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Engineering/Electrical Engineering
