We strive for execution excellence while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. AMD together we advance_ THE ROLE: We are looking for an experienced Engineer, who with their system software expertise will develop software to program & manage heterogenous compute architectures in AMD SOC’s packed with FPGA and various other compute processors. Ability to work cross-functionally across FPGA design, boards, SOC’s, various software stacks (linux, rtos, baremetal) will be essential to succeed in this role. THE PERSON: Ability to go broad in knowledge working on various hardware (board, fpga configurations) and narrow for software development (driver or firmware) will make one successful. The joy for learning in this space will be immensely supported by colleagues with diverse areas of expertise around. We at AMD are take Adaptable & High Performance Compute seriously, so if you like reconfigurable hardware and all-programmable SOC, you would love our team. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: Software Development: Develop linux user-space apps & kernel-space drivers. Develop baremetal, rtos firmwares & applications. Develop tests at unit-test, integration & system level. Collaboration: Work with silicon design, board design, fpga design, architecture and other software teams that are geographically distributed. Architecture: Contribute to the architecture and design of software, firmware, drivers, apps & tests. Upstreaming: Upstream linux kernel drivers to linux community project. Ownership: Plan & execute complex projects. Influence other teams to raise the bar. Mentor junior engineers to be successful.
