Job Summary

Own post-silicon manufacturing validation and debug for AMD Data Center GPU products, with end-to-end responsibility for power, thermal, voltage, and frequency (PTVF) characterization. Build and deploy manufacturing test plans, optimize test coverage, and perform deep root-cause analysis across silicon, firmware, platform, and test infrastructure. Drive PPA trade-off optimization, validate DVFS/thermal stability, and use manufacturing and field data to improve yield, reliability, and manufacturability through cross-functional collaboration.

Location: Penang

Workplace: Hybrid

Employment Type: Full time

Job Function: Manufacturing & Production Operations

Seniority: Mid level

Key Responsibilities

•Define and deploy robust post-silicon manufacturing test plans to ensure coverage across power, thermal, voltage, and frequency operating conditions.
•Lead deep-dive debug of manufacturing and system-level failures and drive rapid root-cause identification across silicon, firmware, platform, and test infrastructure.
•Analyze PPA (Power, Performance, Area) trade-offs and optimize test coverage to meet performance targets with thermal and power efficiency across HVM conditions.
•Validate stability and guard-banding across DVFS states, thermal corners, and real-world workloads to ensure robust operation under diverse deployment scenarios.
•Drive data-driven insights from manufacturing and field returns to improve test effectiveness, enhance fault detection, and increase final product yield and reliability.

Pay and Benefits

Salary: MYR 126,000 - 180,000 annually

Key Requirements

•Proven post-silicon debugging experience, including silicon bring-up, manufacturing test debug, and failure analysis for complex SoCs or GPU/CPU platforms.
•Strong domain knowledge of PPA/PTVF, including power management, DVFS, thermal behavior, voltage guard-banding, and performance optimization.
•Experience designing and optimizing high-volume manufacturing test flows (ATE and system-level test) with a focus on coverage efficiency and defect screening.
•Hands-on lab and fleet debug skills using logs, telemetry, and instrumentation; comfortable with Linux and scripting (Python/Bash) and data analysis.
•Ability to root-cause issues across hardware, firmware, drivers, and system interactions using a structured, data-driven approach.
