THE PERSON:
You will work in close partnership with Program Managers and Platform Architects to translate high-level serviceability goals into concrete engineering requirements, architectural specifications, and delivery plans. This is a deeply cross-functional role that demands both deep technical expertise and strong leadership capabilities.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Serve as the primary technical lead for the Serviceability Engine, owning the end-to-end architectural vision, design decisions, and technical roadmap.
- Define and document detailed architectural specifications for the Serviceability Engine, including error detection, error reporting, fault isolation, and recovery mechanisms.
- Lead architectural reviews and design discussions with platform architects, hardware engineers, firmware teams, and software stakeholders.
- Evaluate and drive trade-off decisions across performance, power, area, and serviceability to ensure optimal system-level outcomes.
- Establish and maintain architectural standards, design patterns, and best practices for serviceability across AMD's product lines.
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior and mid-level engineers on the team.
- Partner closely with Program Managers to translate business and customer requirements into well-defined, actionable engineering specifications.
- Collaborate with Platform Architects to ensure the Serviceability Engine architecture aligns with broader platform and system-level design goals.

- Proactively identify technical risks and gaps in the delivery plan and work with the program team to resolve them before they impact the schedule.
- Act as the technical interface between the Serviceability Engine team and adjacent teams, including CPU/GPU architecture, firmware, platform software, validation, and customer-facing teams.
- Engage with Business Units and Product Owners to understand serviceability requirements across different product segments (data center, client, embedded).
- Represent the Serviceability Engine in architecture forums, program reviews, and executive-level milestone discussions.
- Work with validation and test teams to define serviceability test plans, fault injection strategies, and coverage criteria.
- Support customer and partner engagements where deep serviceability expertise is required.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
- Proven experience defining architectural specifications and driving them through the full SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) in a large, complex engineering organization.
- Strong background in CPU, GPU, or SoC architecture with hands-on experience in one or more of: firmware, platform software.
- Experience working alongside Program Managers to build and execute delivery plans in a matrixed, multi-BU environment.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to present complex technical concepts clearly to both engineering peers and executive stakeholders.
- Familiarity with data center and cloud serviceability requirements.
- Prior experience as a technical lead or architect in a cross-functional program with multiple hardware and software dependencies.
