Job description
This role focuses on transforming complex design data specifications into structured, machine-readable formats (such as XML or relational databases) that can be consumed by verification (DV), design (RTL), architecture, and documentationteams and associated tools. The engineer will act as a bridge between architecture/design teams and DV teams, ensuring data integrity, accessibility, and usability across workflows., * Analyze design specifications and extract relevant data for modeling and verification purposes.
-
Develop andmaintainstructured data representations (e.g., XML schemas, relational databases, or custom data containers).
-
Collaborate with DV teams to ensure compatibility with verification tools and flows (e.g., X86 random code exercisers, UVM-based environments).
-
Implement automation scripts for data ingestion and validation to streamlinedevelopment and verificationprocesses.
-
Ensure version control and traceability of design data across multiple projects and product variants.
-
Work closely with architecture and RTL teams to capture updates and reflect them in the data models., AMD may use Artificial Intelligence to help screen, assess or select applicants for this position. AMD's "Responsible AI Policy" is available here.
