KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: 

• Work with internal and external customers to help debug problems running their workloads on the models.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to find quality solution for all issues.
• Develop test plans and tests functionality of the models.
• Develop high-performance functional models for AMD SoCs and platform.
• Improve functionality, stability, and performance of existing models.
• Develop new, innovative debug features.
• Work closely with architecture teams to understand and model new designs.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: 

• Experience writing high-performance system and application software in C/C++ for Windows and/or Linux environments
• Good understanding of system architecture and system software development is desirable
• Exposure in functional modeling and architecture simulation is desirable

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:
