AMD together we advance_

THE ROLE:

Independently plan, debug and handle manufacturing and characterization test programs for next-generation AMD microprocessors. Work on Automated Test Equipment (ATE) platforms including LTXC Sapphire and Verigy 93K. Debug test infrastructure issues including test HW, test SW, and device-specific IP. Engineer must ensure overall compatibility, compliance, and test coverage of microprocessors from product definition through product qualification and into high volume manufacturing by developing product specific test hardware, software and diagnostics.

THE PERSON:

• Is responsible for quality and timeliness of result for project/process.
• Problems require analysis and evaluation using standard engineering methods.
• Makes more sophisticated technical decisions independently.
• Performs design or design-equivalent work on a portion of a project, process or activity of limited scope.
• Has accountability for accuracy, reliability and completeness of assignment results which aid to a project’s success.
• Implement product improvement activities to reduce cost, improve yield and resolve quality issues.
• Other duties as necessary.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Programming experience with Ruby, C++,Java, C, or C#.
• Familiar with general Computer Architecture concepts such as pipelining and caching, x86 architecture, and PC computer organization.
• Courses in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Digital Logic, and Circuit Theory.
• Experience in Lean, XP, AGILE, Scrum, or Kanban processes.
• Experience with revision control (GIT, SVN, CVS, or similar).
• Experience with scripting languages such as Perl, Ruby, shell script, or similar
• Familiar with Linux or Unix Operating Systems.
• Familiar with Microsoft standard apps (i.e. Office), Microsoft Windows Operating Systems.
• Ability to collaborate and the ability to work with geographically distributed product engineering teams.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• 3 to 5 years industry experience processor test development, validation and/or debug.
• Experience in silicon debug using ATE implementing test specifications, ATE patterns/vectors, and ATE timing.
• Familiar with using logic analyzers, voltmeters, oscilloscopes, and other debug tools.
• Familiar with JTAG IEEE 1149.1 specification.
• Familiar with hardware description languages.
• Statistical analysis experience to resolve population mean and outliers.
• Pareto experience to drive a debug process.
• Work experience in any of these areas preferred.
