Overview As an HSIO Validation Engineer at AMD, you will validate high-speed IO interfaces like PCIe Gen5 and Infinity Fabric to enable AI-driven processing. You'll work across the full product life cycle-from pre-silicon readiness to post-silicon bring-up and customer deployment-building test capabilities, automation, and debugging. You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams and external partners to drive time-to-quality and root-cause analysis. This role offers hands-on problem solving in a fast-paced data center environment with meaningful impact on next-gen hardware.
Responsibilities- Develop test procedures for Functional Validation of PCIe Gen5 interface (or similar)
- Hands-on debug with PCIe state machines, logic analyzers, exercisers, and LTSSM issues
- Hands-on experience with testing HSIO performance and power features
- Metrics driven validation and test characterization for stress and effectiveness
- Develop automation in Python
- Implement improvements towards time-to-quality and time-to-root-cause
- Engage with external partners and customers for tools development and debug
- Technical reporting to communicate program status
- Drive to meet program milestones and customer deliverables
Key requirements- Experience with PCIe Gen5 Protocol, Performance, and Power features
- Experience with SOC digital logic design for link controllers and traffic arbitration
- Experience with system error handling and management (RAS) for HSIO
- Experience with HSIO interoperability testing between root, end point, switches, re-timers, and other devices
- Strong coding skills (Python)
- Strong analytical skills for test creation and debug
- Strong communication and collaboration skills
- Self-starter and ability to independently drive tasks to completion
- Experience in Data Center Industry a valuable asset
