AMD is seeking a highly accomplished Principal Modeling Architect to join the Product Architecture and Workload Strategy team for Data Center GPU. This role will be responsible for leading the development and application of advanced workload modeling methodologies to inform the architecture, design, and optimization of AMD's next-generation Instinct™ GPU and data center platforms. You will drive deep analysis of emerging AI/ML, HPC, and data analytics workloads, translating insights into actionable architectural requirements and performance projections. Your work will directly influence silicon, system, and software design, ensuring AMD platforms are optimized for current and future workload trends.
Job Responsibility:
Develop and refine workload modeling frameworks to characterize and project performance, scalability, and resource utilization for AI/ML, HPC, and data analytics workloads
Analyze emerging model architectures, datatypes, and scaling methodologies to anticipate future platform requirements
Collaborate with architecture, silicon design, software, and performance engineering teams to translate workload insights into platform-level technical requirements
Lead benchmarking, profiling, and simulation efforts to validate architectural assumptions and guide design trade-offs
Produce detailed workload characterization reports, performance projections, and sensitivity analyses to inform platform strategy and technical decision-making
Requirements:
12+ years of experience in workload modeling, performance engineering, system architecture, or related technical domains
Demonstrated expertise in modeling and analyzing AI/ML, HPC, or large-scale data analytics workloads on GPU or accelerator platforms
Deep understanding of performance modeling methodologies, benchmarking tools, simulation environments, and workload characterization techniques
Experience collaborating across hardware, software, and system engineering teams to drive workload-informed architectural decisions
Strong analytical, communication, and technical writing skills
ability to synthesize complex data into actionable insights
Advanced degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field preferred
Nice to have:
Experience with ROCm, CUDA, or other GPU programming frameworks
Familiarity with compiler/runtime systems, kernel libraries, and developer tooling for AI/ML workloads
Track record of publishing workload analysis or performance modeling research in peer-reviewed venues
Experience engaging with hyperscalers, CSPs, or large enterprise customers on workload deployment and optimization
