The ideal candidate should be passionate about software engineering and possess leadership skills to drive sophisticated issues to resolution. Able to communicate effectively and work optimally with different teams across AMD.

You will have worked extensively at the hardware / software interface involving networking in some capacity, programming in C. To be successful you will have the ability to quickly understand a complex hardware and software architecture. You will be able to tackle system level problems and demonstrate knowledge of relevant embedded debug techniques and tools.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

  • 7+ years software experience (or equivalent) working at silicon or networking companies.
  • Proven commercial experience developing in C
  • Experience of python and other scripting languages
  • Strong communication skills
  • Hardware/software codesign
  • Ethernet & TCP/IP
  • Embedded systems ideally with experience of system software and device drivers
  • Understanding of server system architectures e.g. PCI-Express
  • Experience of linux systems

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
