THE ROLE:

Product Characterization team is looking for a highly motivated individual to evaluate the performance of AMD AECG products. As a member of the product characterization team, you will develop and characterize I/O (Analog and Mixed Signal) block.

THE PERSON:

If you are PASSIONATE, ADAPTABLE, and INNOVATIVE, AMD is the right place for you.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Develop and analyze I/O block feature performance independently.
• Demonstrates fluency in the application of different analog and mixed signal characterization test methodologies or customer application issue with minimal guidance.
• Demonstrates proficiency in operating instruments such as signal generators, function generators, high‑end oscilloscopes, etc., and carrying out bench data acquisition tasks.
• Demonstrates proficiency in reading PCB schematics and troubleshooting problems using lab equipment, including JTAG tools, multimeters, oscilloscopes, etc.
• Takes full I/O block level and system‑level responsibilities for generating the characterization, datasheet, and customer qualification reports.
• Builds basic statistical analysis skills and generates trends for the analysis of device feature performance over process windows.
• Takes responsibility for isolating the issue to a specific area such as test gap, SW bug, silicon bug, or process deviation using ATE and/or bench setup.
• Generates automation scripts where applicable for efficiency improvements.

JOB REQUIREMENTS:

1. Experience on I/O characterization (Analog and Mixed Signal) and knowledge on various I/Os standards (LPDDR, DDR, LVDS, MIPI, LVCMOS).
2. Strong data analysis skill as well as proficiency on data analysis tool e.g. JMP, Microsoft tools.
3. Strong communication skills, including data presentation and works well in a group environment that spans across continents.
4. Experience in Linux environment and writing/using scripting languages such as Perl, Tcl, etc.
5. Experience with Bench equipment e.g. Oscilloscope, Signal Generator, Power supply etc.
6. ATE test program knowledge, preferably Advantest ATE is a plus.
7. RTL knowledge for content creation & debug, including logic and state machine implementation, and Vivado Software knowledge is a plus.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

BS/MS Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or comparable disciplines
