Location: Austin
Workplace: Hybrid
Employment Type: Full time
Job Function: Solutions Engineering & Sales Engineering

Key Responsibilities

  • •Define and own the end-to-end rack-scale serviceability and telemetry architecture for AMD Instinct-based solutions, spanning node BMC, chassis/rack management, service processors/controllers, management network, and fleet-level observability integration.
  • •Define the standards strategy and interface architecture using DMTF Redfish, PLDM, MCTP, and related specifications, maximizing standards compliance while establishing AMD/OEM extensions only where required.
  • •Drive OpenBMC-based architecture and implementation direction for BMC and rack management controllers, including D-Bus object models, bmcweb/Redfish requirements, sensor and FRU inventory models, logging, eventing, firmware update, and debug workflows.
  • •Architect telemetry frameworks for health, power, thermal, inventory, error, utilization, and service data. Define schemas, metric taxonomies, triggers, event models, aggregation, retention, and reporting strategies required for at-scale observability and automated service operations.
  • •Define platform serviceability flows covering discovery, inventory correlation, fault isolation, diagnostics, crashdump and error capture, remote recovery, FRU replacement, firmware/driver update orchestration, and return-to-service procedures.

Key Requirements

  • •Deep knowledge of DMTF Redfish, including schema design, OEM extension strategy, eventing, update service, and telemetry concepts such as MetricReportDefinition/Metric Reports; strong understanding of PLDM/MCTP for platform inventory, monitoring, control, and update workflows.
  • •Strong hands-on experience with OpenBMC, including Yocto/OpenEmbedded, D-Bus, systemd, bmcweb/Redfish, phosphor services, firmware update flows, sensor frameworks, and log/event handling.
  • •Experience with embedded Linux, ARM-based BMC SoCs, U-Boot, Linux kernel/device driver concepts, device tree, and low-level interfaces such as I2C/I3C, SPI, UART, GPIO, SMBus/PMBus, and related platform-management buses.
  • •Strong programming and scripting background in C/C++, Python, and shell, with the ability to debug across firmware, hardware, and system software boundaries.
  • •Experience creating architecture specifications, product requirements, conformance plans, validation strategies, and design reviews that drive execution across multiple internal teams and external partners.
