THE ROLE
The focus of this role is to plan, build, and execute the design and validation of new and existing features for AMD’s DDR IPs and custom IPs.
THE PERSON
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to design and integrate DDR memory controller calibration solutions—including RTL logic, firmware routines, and algorithmic flows—into AMD’s system-level validation and bring-up environments. Ensure seamless interaction between hardware and firmware components, delivering reliable calibration performance aligned with silicon and platform requirements. To work on custom IP projects.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Design and implement robust firmware solutions for DDR memory controller calibration across various DDR standards
Develop and refine calibration algorithms to ensure reliable memory initialization and operation under varying process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) conditions. Focus on improving accuracy, convergence speed, and adaptability of calibration routines
Create and execute validation plans to verify the correctness and performance of calibration firmware, algorithms and custom IPs. Perform system-level bring-up and debug activities to identify and resolve issues related to memory training and stability
Work closely with silicon design, verification, and system engineering teams to align calibration firmware with hardware capabilities and system requirements. Ensure seamless integration and interoperability across the full memory subsystem
