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.
THE ROLE:
The CGCTools team develops and sustains the advanced debug infrastructure that underpins AMD’s client, graphics, and custom product lines. A CGCTools engineer is responsible for enabling endtoend debug capabilities spanning onchip instrumentation, JTAG over USBC solutions, automated data capture, and scalable serverside analysis. This role supports the full lifecycle of silicon: bringup, validation, customer debug, and highvolume production.
Key responsibilities include designing, implementing, and maintaining tooling related to JTAG hardware, ADS (Automated Debug System), memory bringup, scan infrastructure, emerging technologies such as microprocessor based debug, and in-chassis hardware used to transport JTAG over USB. Engineers will collaborate crossfunctionally with AMD’s CSG Tools, S3 Platform, DFX/StimGen, validation teams, InfoSec, and external partners to deliver robust debug pathways both inside AMD labs and externally to ODMs and customers.
The role involves contributing to the development of nextgeneration debug architectures, enabling automated data collection pipelines, creating or extending IP inspection libraries, and ensuring debug data is securely transported, preserved, and leveraged for engineering analysis and AIbased tooling. CGCTools engineers support customerfacing debug workflows, participate in JTAG tool escalation processes, and develop firmware specifications for future silicon debug features. Workstreams also include shipping new external JTAG device software releases, supporting USBdriven scan, maintaining QA automation infrastructure, and enabling multiBU program readiness across upcoming SOCs.
THE PERSON:
Ideal candidates are systemsminded engineers with strong software, firmware, or hardware debug expertise; familiarity with JTAG, Python, low level data manipulation, containerized tools, and largescale automation; and the ability to work across multiple SOC programs in a fastmoving environment. This role is central to the evolution of AMD’s debug capability and requires technical depth, crossteam communication, and a passion for building reliable engineering infrastructure.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Study upcoming SOCs and identify areas in need of advanced debug tools
Work with IP teams to acquire functional understanding of IP blocks and procedures for making operational health assessments of the IP block’s state
Work with firmware teams to instrument debug data into mission mode firmware
Work with IP teams to influence the addition of DFD features into future silicon
Write specs to outline how to perform debug data collection for in-chip microcontrollers responsible for executing debug actions
Build Python libraries that can capture debug data and evaluate the health of an IP block
Contribute to JTAG tools hardware development
Contribute to JTAG tools software development
Contribute to Automated Debug System debug service distributed application
Build and monitor automated QA execution of debug tools setup as CI/CD pipelines
Assist in the construction of K8 containers to execute the debug service
Work with regional Customer Engineering teams to enable AMD debug features within end customer designs
Work with IT and infosec to enable secure VPN tunnel for JTAG devices

x86 system knowledge
SOC internal architecture
JTAG HW tools
Python, C, Java, JavaScript
Kubernetes containers
Linux
USB
System level debugging
BIOS
Firmware development
Platform design
Validation knowledge
Strong analytical/problem-solving skills and pronounced attention to details
Must be a self-starter, and able to independently drive tasks to completion
