ABOUT THE TEAM:

The Networking Technology and Solution IP Group at AMD is adding to the Data Centre design team in Belfast. We focus on design and verification of ASIC blocks for next generation data center networking, focusing on the needs of AI clusters for training and inference; covering the entire design cycle across: architecture, algorithm design and modelling, block specification, RTL design, test planning, verification and end-to-end validation. We get the pleasure of seeing the results of our work in real products.

We are a team who actively look for variety and complicated problems in our daily work. We encourage each other to work, over time, on all aspects of our development and to have a big picture view of our designs to better guide our block level development.

Becoming a part of our local team at this stage is a hugely exciting opportunity and will enable you to play a key role in solidifying our culture and values as we grow.

ABOUT YOU:

For this highly visible role, the ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate success in a comparable technical role on a product team innovating and redefining high-performance computing and networking applications. Should be comfortable working in a cross-team environment and show creativity and self-motivation in their career.

You are keen to make a real word difference in networking. You want to achieve the best image quality and customer experience, whilst minimising bandwidth, power and chip area. You are excited by the challenges these goals create.

You are intelligent, curious, and want to get stuck into very difficult concepts. xbpsjku
