Architecture Modeling (AM) Intern

THE ROLE:

The Architectural Modeling (AM) tool is the single simulator for all graphics products at AMD. The tool is utilized to predict the performance of the nextgen product across different GPU families at AMD. The role of the Engineer/Scientist can be of four different categories.

1. Problem identification: Data from the AM tool is used by AMD architects used to identify points that can be enhanced in our nextgen products. AM team develops a variety of tools and datapoints makes finding performance problems easier.

1. Feature Development: The AM team works with architects on ideas called features to improve the graphics architecture. The AM team has the core responsibility of proving or disproving new features inclusion in nextgen products.

1. Model Development: As an AM engineer you will develop the knowledge of the entire graphics and compute pipeline for all our offtheshelve products and details of the upcoming changes and their impact.

1. Model Enhancement:AMis a C simulator with python postscripts for data visualization. As an AM engineer you would get the chance to bring your expertise in these languages to improve the AM tools in terms of wallclock runtime memory consumption and complexity.

1. SW Shift Left:Help drive our SW shift initiative where we have a model and driver stack to facilitate our architecture analysis and IP verification needs.

The Candidate

As a GPU modeling engineer you will work in a hardware/software codesign environment to craft industry leading simulation platforms and tools have a strong voice in next generation of AMD products and get to learn and contribute to the entire graphics pipeline and software/hardware stack. The ideal candidate is a highly skilled software designer and engineer who is proficient in C and familiar with hardware architecture. Knowledge of the GPU hardware and the efficient use of discrete GPUs APUs and mobile devices is an advantage. The candidate will work in a big team environment on a variety of opportunities so teamwork and drive are essential.
