Staff Digital Design Engineer - DSP

Role Summary

This position is focused on digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms and their implementation in high-speed serializer/deserializer (SerDes) systems. The role involves optimizing R&D efforts to enhance AMD's connectivity solutions.

Experience Level

Mid-Career experience is preferred, particularly in DSP and digital design for high-speed communication systems.

Responsibilities

The primary responsibilities include:

• Collaborating with architects and engineers to refine DSP features for SerDes transceivers.
• Implementing DSP algorithms for equalization, filtering, and sequence detection.
• Conducting RTL development utilizing ASIC front-end tools to ensure code quality.
• Creating detailed documentation for DSP algorithms and their interaction with hardware and software components.

Requirements

Applicants should meet the following requirements:

• Proven experience in DSP algorithm development for SerDes or similar interfaces (e.g., Ethernet, PCIe).
• Knowledge of equalization techniques (FFE, CTLE, DFE, MLSE).
• Strong digital design experience, including clock domain crossing and RTL using SystemVerilog.
• Understanding of power optimization techniques in digital design.
• Familiarity with simulation and modeling of DSP blocks.

Education Requirements

A degree in Electrical Engineering or related field is typically expected for this role.
