AMD is seeking a highly skilled Customer Co‑Validation Lead (SMTS) to drive customer‑facing validation strategy, strengthen customer intimacy, and co‑develop end‑to‑end system validation alongside our top hyperscale, enterprise, and MDC partners. This role directly influences how AMD Instinct™ GPU platforms are validated, integrated, and deployed in real customer environments—ensuring customer success while bringing critical insights back into AMD’s engineering, product, and platform teams. You will own co‑validation engagements with customers, oversee system‑level debug and readiness assessment, and drive bi‑directional value creation through aligned validation plans, shared workflows, and tight coordination across AMD and customer engineering organizations.
Job Responsibility:
Lead Customer Co-Validation Strategy, execution, engagements involving AI performance and GPU software stack issues and develop joint validation plans
Own the technical relationship for system-level co-validation with strategic customers
Drive execution of co-validation cycles across single-node, multi-node, rack-scale, and clusters systems
Ensure AMD and customer test coverage is complementary, efficient, and aligned to shared deployment goals
Lead cross-domain debug spanning GPU, CPU, NIC, BMC/AMC, firmware, ROCm, OS, virtualization, orchestration, libraries, drivers, AI software stack and customer automation frameworks
Reproduce, root-cause, and validate issues found during co-validation, guiding engineering teams toward fixes
Translate co-validation learnings into improvements for AMD tools, SVM (System Validation Manual), test content, and platform collateral
Provide structured customer-facing readiness signals and guidance to support deployment decisions
Generate co-validation artifacts: test reports, risk assessments, gap analysis, and proposed enhancements
Work closely with cross functional engineering teams to ensure coherence between AMD deliverables and customer needs
Provide guidance to junior engineers engaged in customer validation
Represent AMD with professionalism in high-pressure customer scenarios
Use AI tools to improve productivity in day-to-day tasks, such as data analysis, test automation, and documentation
Requirements:
Deep experience with Linux, OS/kernel/driver stacks, ROCm or CUDA-like environments, and GPU/CPU/NIC integration
Strong background in multi-node / rack-scale validation, orchestration, virtualization (KVM, VMware, Hyper-V), and manageability (Redfish/BMC/AMC)
Skilled in system-level debug across firmware, software, hardware, and automation layers
Expertise in test plan architecture, debug methodologies, and multi-domain system validation
Comfortable leading technical discussions with senior customer engineers and decision-makers
Proficiency with Python or similar scripting for automation
Exceptional communication skills, both technical and customer-facing
Experience with customer co-validation, data center cluster deployment or AI performance tuning is a strong plus
Familiarity with AI concepts, frameworks, or applications
Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or similar discipline
10+ years of relevant experience in system validation, customer engineering, platform bring-up, or datacenter clusters/solution enablement roles
Nice to have:
Experience with customer co-validation, data center cluster deployment or AI performance tuning
Familiarity with AI concepts, frameworks, or applications
