About the Role
AMD is seeking a Product Development Engineer to deliver high-quality microprocessors, optimizing cost, quality, yield, and time to market. You will contribute across the full product lifecycle, from pre-silicon characterization to post-silicon debug and yield improvement.
Responsibilities
- Develop and execute end-to-end characterization plans for new silicon products and process technologies
- Analyze characterization and yield data across ATE, SLT, and other manufacturing insertions
- Lead cross-functional debug efforts involving Product Engineering, Test, Design, Platform, and Fab teams
- Investigate silicon and manufacturing test failures to identify root causes and coverage gaps
- Drive yield improvement through statistical analysis of test results and collaborative technical debug
- Optimize manufacturing test flows and methodologies to improve product quality, cost, and test efficiency
- Evaluate product features and performance targets to support pre-silicon test planning
- Identify opportunities to improve test coverage, screening effectiveness, and production readiness
- Present technical findings, recommendations, and results to engineering stakeholders
Requirements
- Technically strong and highly collaborative product engineer with experience in semiconductor manufacturing, silicon characterization, yield analysis, and production test methodologies
- Strong analytical judgment
- Ability to communicate complex findings clearly
- Ability to lead cross-functional teams through challenging technical investigations
- Comfortable working in both Windows and Unix environments
- Ability to apply statistical analysis techniques to translate test data into meaningful improvements in product quality, yield, and cost
- Product engineering experience supporting modern microprocessors or complex semiconductor products
- Hands-on experience with ATE and system-level test methodologies
- Experience with silicon characterization, yield analysis, and failure debug
- Proficiency with data-analysis methods and tools, including Pareto analysis, statistical analysis, JMP, or equivalent platforms
- Knowledge of semiconductor fabrication processes and manufacturing flows
- Strong understanding of semiconductor device physics and common failure mechanisms
- Working knowledge of modern computer architecture
- Proficiency in Windows and Unix environments
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including technical data presentation
- Demonstrated ability to lead complex, cross-functional technical investigations
- Extensive relevant product engineering, semiconductor test, characterization, or yield-analysis experience
- This role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.
