ADVANCE YOUR CAREER. ADVANCE THE WORLD.
At AMD, we believe technology has the power to solve the world’s most important challenges. From advancing healthcare and scientific discovery to powering AI and the technologies people rely on every day, innovation at AMD is shaping the future.
Whether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or bringing leading edge products to market, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger — technology that moves the world forward. Join us and, together, we’ll advance your career.
AMD's AI software stack is moving fast — and keeping pace means shipping complete, validated GPU stack releases to customers as quickly as the software can evolve. Today, that release velocity is limited by the coordination overhead between layers: firmware, kernel driver, and ROCm each have their own build systems, their own workflows, and no shared release baseline.
Every customer delivery requires manual effort to assemble and validate a coherent recipe across all three, and lower-level components — firmware and kernel — are increasingly the bottleneck to getting the full stack out the door.
We're building the infrastructure to change that: a unified build and CI platform that treats the complete GPU stack as a single deliverable, built from source, validated together, and releasable on demand. The result is faster time-to-customer for validated, fully-supported GPU stack releases — without sacrificing the stability that product lines depend on.
We need an AMD Director to own this area end-to-end. You'll lead a tiger team of 5–10 engineers while spending roughly half your time in the code yourself — making architecture calls, driving the hardest technical problems, and setting the bar for how the team works. The other half is working directly with executives to sequence the rollout in a way that accelerates release velocity without disrupting active product lines.
This is an organizational change effort as much as it is an engineering one — and we need someone who can operate credibly at both levels without giving up either.
