As a Senior Mechanical Product Engineer in the Data Center Platform Engineering Group (DPEG) Mechanical Engineering department, you will serve as a key technical interface between design engineering and manufacturing for AMD Data Center GPU products. This is not a primary mechanical design role; instead, the position requires deep understanding of AMD mechanical architectures, assemblies, tolerances, and validation intent to ensure that manufacturing and production partners can correctly build, inspect, and test hardware at scale. You will help drive manufacturing readiness for mechanical aspects of the product, translate design intent into clear production test and debug expectations, and help resolve issues discovered during bring-up, pilot builds, and high-volume manufacturing. To succeed in this role, you will work cross-functionally with mechanical design, board engineering, package engineering, validation, quality, operations, suppliers, and manufacturing partners, while influencing execution across internal and external teams.   THE PERSON: The ideal candidate is a strong technical leader with excellent communication, planning, and problem-solving skills, and with the credibility to work effectively across engineering, operations, and external manufacturing teams. They should be comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment, making sound technical judgments with incomplete information, and driving issues to closure across organizational boundaries. This person will combine solid mechanical engineering fundamentals with practical manufacturing knowledge, including how hardware is built, tested, debugged, and ramped into production. Experience working with server, rack, and data center hardware, along with familiarity with global manufacturing environments, is highly desirable.

The Senior Mechanical Product Engineer in the DPEG Mechanical Engineering team will play a critical role in ensuring successful product industrialization and production execution. The successful candidate will partner closely with design teams in Austin and with manufacturing partners to ensure mechanical design intent is clearly understood and translated into robust manufacturing, inspection, and test processes. This role requires strong technical depth, cross-functional influence, and a systems-level perspective spanning silicon integration, board and system hardware, manufacturing process readiness, and field-relevant failure analysis. The position is ideally based in Austin, Texas to enable close collaboration with the core design team and a local manufacturing site, with periodic travel to Asia—especially Taiwan—including potential multi-week trips during key build and ramp phases.   Core responsibilities include understanding mechanical designs well enough to identify critical-to-function features, reviewing manufacturing and test plans for alignment with design intent, and enabling production partners to correctly inspect, assemble, and test AMD hardware. The role will support debug and root-cause analysis of issues found during prototype builds, qualification, and manufacturing, and will help drive corrective actions across design, quality, supplier, and
