Collected role description

ADVANCE YOUR CAREER. ADVANCE THE WORLD. At AMD, we believe technology has the power to solve the world’s most important challenges. From advancing healthcare and scientific discovery to powering AI and the technologies people rely on every day, innovation at AMD is shaping the future. Whether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or bringing leading edge products to market, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger — technology that moves the world forward. Join us and, together, we’ll advance your career. THE ROLE: We at AECG SSD Custom Silicon are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Full-Chip Floorplan Engineer to drive physical implementation planning for complex SoCs and ASICs. The candidate will be responsible for developing and optimizing full-chip floorplans, partitioning strategies, power planning, interconnect planning, and physical architecture to achieve aggressive PPA (Power, Performance, Area) targets while ensuring design convergence and manufacturability.The role requires close collaboration with Architecture, RTL, Physical Design, DFT, Power, Package, and Verification teams throughout the SoC development lifecycle. Industry full-chip floorplanning activities commonly include die shaping, macro placement, IO planning, power-domain planning, pin assignment, feedthrough planning, and physical integration strategy development.
