AMD together we advance PROGRAM MANAGER 2 THE ROLE : As roadmap program manager in AMD’s AI GPU Software team, you will drive planning of a project portfolio of leading-edge technology in high performance GPU-accelerated compute and machine learning for the ROCm software stack.

You will learn about how the power of open-source software can be applied to solve real-world problems. You will interact with product management, customers, software and hardware engineering teams, quality assurance and operations in a new and growing team THE PERSON : The successful candidate in this role will be a self-starter, upbeat, quick learner who is passionate about new technology in addition to being results-oriented and able to get things done.

They will be able to resolve ambiguity and adapt to changes in a dynamic environment. Drawing on their engineering background and validated experience in delivering software, the ideal candidate will be an excellent communicator who can engage with key partners at all levels, from driving technical discussions to leading executive program reviews.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES : Work closely with product managers, engineering managers, and software developers to own the planning of the machine learning and high-performance compute software roadmap to successful delivery in software releases.

Run the intake of new improvement requests across business units, software functional organizations and finance / ops, working closely with product management to achieve clarity on the relative priorities and requirements.

Dive deep into technical aspects of new requests; Be responsible for the scoping of the software enhancements, coordinating across functional teams to gather all dependencies and commitments.

Drive the planning and development of a committed software release plan Drive the development of technology roadmaps in collaboration with functional managers and publish near term and long-term roadmaps Drive interlock with business units on the engineering roadmap including prioritization and gap analysis monthly.
