From advancing healthcare and scientific discovery to powering AI and the technologies people rely on every day, innovation at AMD is shaping the future.\nWhether you're designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or bringing leading edge products to market, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger — technology that moves the world forward. Join us and, together, we'll advance your career.\nThe Role:\nAMD's processors are consistently ranked among the best in the world for performance, efficiency, and reliability — and verification is a core reason why.\nAMD is one of the few places in the world where you can work on leading-edge Microprocessor silicon at this scale while staying completely hands-on. You'll be in the code, in the simulation, in the architecture review, doing the work that matters. The problems are genuinely hard, the team is strong, and the processors we build end up in the machines people depend on every day. If that's the kind of engineering career you want to build, we'd like to meet you.\nThe Person:\nThe Engineer Others Turn To. That's You.\nWe're looking for a Senior Verification Engineer who is still deeply hands-on: someone who shapes technical strategy, solves the problems nobody else can crack, and raises the quality bar through example and expertise.\nKey Responsibilities:\nOwn functional verification of high-performance Microprocessor designs from block level through full-chip integration.\nDesign and build sophisticated verification infrastructure: behavioral reference models, transaction-level checkers, scoreboards, and simulation frameworks that operate at chip scale.\nWrite advanced C and assembly test programs that find the architectural corner cases no automated tool will reach on its own.\nDrive regression quality and defect convergence to tape-out standards — 99%+ pass rates, clean coverage, and a well-managed bug backlog.\nServe as the technical authority in architecture reviews, coverage closure meetings, and tape-out readiness assessments.\nIdentify verification risk early, communicate it clearly to design and program teams, and arrive with a mitigation plan.\nShare knowledge through code reviews, design discussions, and mentorship — and make the engineers around you measurably better.\nBuild tools and automation that improve team velocity and verification confidence across all active programs.\nCollaborate across RTL, DFT, physical design, and architecture teams at multiple sites to keep verification aligned with design reality.\nPreferred Experience:\nExtensive functional verification experience on high-performance Microprocessors or complex ASIC/SoC designs.\nExpert C++ programming skills — you build production-quality verification software and set the standard for those around you.\nDeep experience with C++ based verification: behavioral models, reference models, checkers, and large-scale simulation infrastructure.\nStrong understanding of computer architecture, including out-of-order processor pipelines, memory hierarchy and superscalar execution.\nA track record of driving programs through tape-out with clean metrics — you know what done really looks like.\nAbility to influence technical direction and build alignment across teams without formal authority.\nExperience designing reference models or behavioral models for Microprocessor execution units.\nKnowledge of floating point math and experience working on a floating point execution unit.\nProgramming proficiency in x86 assembly, C/C++, Perl, Python, and Ruby languages.\nExperience with Verilog HDL and SystemVerilog along with a solid understanding of computer architecture.\nFormal verification applied to correctness properties in complex control and datapath logic.\nPrior work verifying multi-die or chiplet-based processor architectures.\nExperience at a leading semiconductor company on x86 or ARM processor programs.\nAcademic Credentials:\nBS or MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent preferred.\nLocations:\nFishkill, New York, OR Fort Collins, Colorado.
