KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Collaborate with a global team to define, design, and integrate mechanical systems for silicon devices and server products.

• Lead mechanical development efforts across server design, system architecture, rack-level integration, and cooling solutions.

• Perform mechanical modeling in creo and Solidworks, tolerance analysis, and system-level mechanical design tailored to AMD's strategic market segments.

• Contribute to post-silicon development through test planning, characterization, data analysis, and support of customer/reference systems.

• Provide technical direction and mentorship to junior engineers; act as a key decision-maker in design reviews and cross-functional discussions.

• Drive the continuous improvement of mechanical design processes and workflows.

• Champion innovation by introducing new mechanical design concepts, technologies, and methodologies.

• Use independent judgment and initiative to solve complex mechanical challenges and influence product direction.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Seasoned experience in mechanical design and development, with senior/lead level in server and switch development field.

• Proven expertise in the integration of silicon into system-level products, particularly in high-performance computing/server environments.

• Strong understanding of thermal management, cooling systems, mechanical modeling tools, and industry-standard design practices.

• Demonstrated success in leading engineering efforts from concept through production.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; ability to influence and collaborate across teams and geographies.

• Lead detailed sheet metal design efforts, including enclosure and chassis development, with strong understanding of fabrication processes, tooling design, cost optimization, DFM/DFA (Design for Manufacturability and Assembly), and supplier collaboration from prototype through high-volume production.

The SMTS Mechanical Engineer in the Thermal Mechanical Engineering team must have demonstrated the ability for innovation and continuous improvement throughout their career. The selected candidate will use their proven engineering expertise to drive best practices and value across the organization.

• Technical Leadership Experience: At least five (5+) years of technical subject matter experience in a large, fast-paced environment. Demonstrated ability to manage and contribute to multiple technically diverse programs in parallel is required.

• Technical Experience: Strong background in mechanical design, design for manufacture, and mechanical analysis. Experience in server and server infrastructure design is highly desired. Proficiency in developing mechanical solutions at the silicon, package, and system levels for semiconductor products is essential, including data analysis and product characterization.

• Mechanical Modeling: Working knowledge of statistical analysis, structural and tolerance analysis, and Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Proficiency in SolidWorks and Creo is required; Ansys/Abaqus experience is a plus.

• Strategic Thinking: Ability to define and implement mechanical solutions in a dynamic, high-tech environment with evolving business and technical priorities.

• Teamwork: Strong collaboration skills across internal teams, vendors, and partners. Ability to lead by example and promote a culture of teamwork and shared success
