Staff Silicon Design Engineer - RTL, Singapore

THE ROLE: AMD is seeking a talented, motivated and self-driven digital design engineer to be part of the SerDes Technology group. You will be part of the team developing SerDes/Transceiver designs and solutions. The role involves work on all aspects of the FPGA/ASIC digital design flow including architectural specification, test planning, RTL design, functional verification, through synthesis and implementation to hardware and post silicon validation.
THE PERSON: The successful candidate will execute digital design work and contribute technically with a high general impact on the overall design. We are seeking a team player who is innovative, highly accurate and detail-oriented, willing to learn, and possessing excellent communication and problem-solving skills to join our design team.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: Design and development with leading edge technology nodes on digital logic blocks. DFT implementation and verification. Perform test bench development and functional verification of developed digital logic blocks. Perform post silicon validation, testing and debug of block functionality on prototype silicon. Work closely with system architect, project manager, design and verification teams to develop design specifications documents, verification plans, and validation test plans.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: Experience in
ASIC or digital IC design , with hands‑on involvement in
RTL development (Verilog/SystemVerilog)
for complex digital blocks or subsystems. Exposure to the
front‑end digital design flow , including RTL coding, functional verification, lint/CDC checks, logic synthesis, and timing analysis. Experience contributing to
one or more ASIC or FPGA tapeouts , either at block or subsystem level. Familiarity with
DFT concepts and flows
hands‑on experience is a plus but not mandatory. Exposure to
post‑silicon validation, testing, or debug , with an interest in understanding silicon behaviour and root‑cause analysis. Background in
high‑performance or high‑speed digital designs
(e.g., SoC interconnects, memory interfaces, I/O subsystems, data‑path logic) is advantageous. Knowledge of
SystemVerilog and UVM
is a plus. Strong problem‑solving skills, willingness to learn new domains (e.g., SerDes/transceiver logic), and ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams.
ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: Bachelor or Masters Degree in Electronic Engineering.
