AI Cluster Validation Architect

About the role

We are seeking a collaborative and motivated Systems Validation and SW Architect to join our team. In this role, you will develop and execute methodologies and validation content for system-level hardware, firmware, and software validation on machine learning systems built with AMD’s technologies. You’ll work closely with architecture, design, and post-silicon teams to identify and resolve complex systems, improving future debug and validation features.

This position involves developing automation, refining validation processes, executing validation cases, analyzing data, and driving system-level quality across AMD’s product portfolio. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds who bring curiosity, technical depth, and a commitment to innovation.

Responsibilities

• Lead the definition of validation procedures to validate the design of various system components on the next generation of machine learning architectures, including all components of servers such as CPU, GPU, memory, BIOS, BMC, IO, storage, and networking.
• Lead efforts to validate Scale-up and Scale-out architectures, including definition of validation plans at the cluster-level as well as writing code to support the validation.
• Translate system specs into a robust system integration validation plan.
• Develop complex and critical validation content as well as monitoring, debug, and root-cause software mechanisms that others can use in their plans.
• Establish methods to validate, monitor, and root-cause errors at the cluster-level.
• Make improvements to system-level integration validation strategies, methodologies, and processes.
• Collaborate with customer and multi-functional hardware and software teams to debug and tackle complex issues.
• Efficiently execute validation plans to meet time-to-market requirements.
• Confidently describe validation procedures and issues to internal and external stakeholders.
• Investigate, profile, and enable validation content for a wide variety of system domains, as well as benchmarks and proxies for customer workloads into our own validation frameworks, ranging from industry-standard benchmarks to state-of-the-art training and inference applications.
• Develop and improve automation features according to requirements.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent.

Skills

As a Systems Validation and SW Architect, you will deliver our next generation of system validations for our products. In this high-visibility position, your systems engineering expertise will be necessary to find and resolve system hardware, firmware, and software issues. Your software background will help us advance our validation coverage and improve automation frameworks, and your experience with large-scale clusters will help us debug critical issues only seen at scale.
