Job summary

AMD is seeking a Senior Product Development Engineer in Austin to advance quality and reliability of Server CPUs and Instinct accelerators. You’ll transform massive manufacturing data into actionable insights and scalable analytics, partnering across Product, Test, Yield, Quality, and Operations to drive improvements in yield and cost.

You’ll deploy ML/AI solutions for outlier screening, drift detection, and anomaly detection, while building production‑grade analytics in AMD’s AVA platform.

Qualifications

• Strong background in semiconductor product development, yield engineering, or test engineering with hands‑on experience analyzing high‑volume manufacturing data.
• Solid foundations in statistics and machine learning, including hypothesis testing, DOE/RSM, regression, classification, outlier detection, time‑series analysis, and anomaly detection.
• Familiarity with Python and SQL for data analysis and modeling (e.g., pandas, NumPy, scikit‑learn), general coding experience and demonstrated past ability in related scientific computing work.

Responsibilities

• Partner with Product Engineering, Test Engineering, Yield Engineering, Quality, and Operations to identify, define, and prioritize analytics and machine‑learning use cases that materially improve yield, quality, and cost.
• Develop and deploy ML/AI solutions for parametric outlier screening, drift detection, and excursion/anomaly detection across wafer, lot, site, and package dimensions.
• Perform in‑depth root‑cause analysis of yield loss and DPPM drivers by correlating test, fab, assembly, and design variables; distinguish systemic issues from statistical noise.
• Build, productionize, and maintain yield and quality analytics within AMD’s AVA analytics platform, moving models from experimentation to scalable deployment.
• Drive adaptive test, screening, and binning strategies using data‑driven insights to optimize product quality and manufacturing efficiency.
• Author clear technical documentation and reports; present findings and recommendations to cross‑functional teams and executive audiences.
• Contribute reusable code, analytics frameworks, and best practices that elevate team capability and accelerate future development.
