Technical Program Manager

ADVANCE YOUR CAREER. ADVANCE THE WORLD. At AMD, we believe technology can change lives for the better. It can heal us, entertain us, and make us more connected, productive, and understanding of the world around us. And we’re looking for talent who feel the same: people who want to leave the planet better than they found it, those who don’t shy away from humanity’s challenges but are determined to help solve them.   AMD is powering the next generation of supercomputing, high-performance computing, cloud, and AI. Whether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or creating go-to-market plans, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger — technology that moves the world forward.

As a SoC Program Manager, you will lead end-to-end execution across complex System-on-Chip (SoC/ASIC) development programs from architecture through tapeout and post-silicon phases. You will drive program milestones, manage cross-functional dependencies across IP teams (CPU/GPU/NOC/DDR/SoC subsystems), and ensure alignment across RTL, PD, DFT, firmware, validation, and platform teams. You will be responsible for planning, tracking, reporting, and risk management across all phases of SoC execution, including architecture, design convergence, validation, tapeout, and silicon enablement, while ensuring predictable delivery and high-quality outcomes.     THE PERSON:   You bring strong execution discipline, structured program management, and cross-functional leadership. You partner seamlessly with architects, IP owners, RTL, PD, DFT, firmware, validation, and external vendors to drive convergence, resolve dependencies, and maintain schedule integrity. You understand system-level architecture, SoC integration challenges, milestones (e.g., architecture, RTL feature completion, physical design readiness, validation readiness, engineering change order (ECO) phase, tapeout) and the full lifecycle of complex SoC programs, with the ability to drive alignment across geographically distributed teams. You ensure execution is on-time, within cost, and manage scope changes. As a Program Manager you will drive AMD product solution deliverables and alignment with customers’ platforms to ensure highest level customer satisfaction throughout their product lifecycle. You proactively involve team members in planning, decision-making and execution efforts.

Program Planning & Execution   Define, structure, and drive end-to-end SoC program plans in alignment with architecture, design, and tapeout milestones.   Ensure requirements are clearly defined and integrated into design, validation, and silicon execution plans.   Create and maintain detailed schedules covering:   Architecture definition and high-level design readiness   IP integration and subsystem convergence   Design milestones (architecture, RTL feature completion, physical design readiness, validation readiness, engineering change order (ECO) phase, tapeout)   Track progress across IP teams (CPU, NOC, DDR, SoC subsystems, etc.) and ensure timely milestone completion.   Drive disciplined execution through structured action tracking, meeting cadences, and program reviews.   Drive milestone checklist compliance and readiness reviews for key program exits.   Manage resource planning, onboarding, and execution tracking across internal teams and external vendors (ODC/CW engagement).   Cross-Functional Collaboration   Work closely with architecture, RTL, PD, DFT, firmware, validation, and system engineering teams to resolve cross-domain dependencies.   Drive convergence forums (IP-SOC, subsystem syncs, CFT reviews) to ensure alignment across all stakeholders.   Track and manage detailed schedules and deliverable lists covering:   Cross-IP dependency tracking (interfaces, fuse mapping, metal stack, etc.)   Validation readiness (pre-silicon and post-silicon)   Silicon bring-up and platform
