WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING
At AMD, our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences—from AI and data centers, to PCs, gaming and embedded systems. Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuity and a shared passion to create something extraordinary. When you join AMD, you’ll discover the real differentiator is our culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges—striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond. Together, we advance your career.
THE ROLE:
This is a hands-on role for engineers who thrive on exploration, love solving complex systems problems, and are passionate about HPC and AI. You’ll bring your HPC expertise to a research and development-focused team that investigates AI infrastructure across compute, storage, networking, and orchestration layers. Your work and knowledge will help shape reference architectures, configuration guides, and reproducible experiments that support internal teams, pre-sales engineers, and customers in making informed hardware and software decisions. The primary focus for this role is on storage solutions for AI/HPC, benchmarking proof points, and creation of reference architecture and other supporting collateral related specifically to storage solutions in support of AMD-based AI and HPC clustered systems at scale.
Our team operates across industry verticals as subject matter experts in the AI stack and across the cluster. We’re building a library of technical artifacts such as design docs, presentations, and “how it works” guides to help others skill up from an HPC perspective in the AI space. This is a high-autonomy role focused on creation, not operations. If you enjoy building, learning, debugging tough issues, and writing about what you discover, we want to hear from you!
THE PERSON:
You’re an engineer, a systems thinker and professional troubleshooter who sees the big picture and thrives on researching and experimentation. You’ve worked hands-on with HPC clusters and HPC/AI-oriented storage solutions and are eager to explore how AI workloads like inferencing and training fit into HPC style infrastructure. You’re not looking for a runbook, you’re looking to build the blueprint.
You’re self-directed, proactive, and comfortable navigating ambiguity to solve complex problems. You communicate clearly, enjoy writing technical artifacts that help others understand intricate systems, and collaborate naturally with internal teams and customers. You get excited to teach others what you know. Whether you’re diving into a new stack or refining a reference architecture, you bring curiosity, initiative, and a drive to create.
