We push the limits of innovation to solve the world s most important challenges—striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond.

Together, we advance your career.

Join AMD s Network Technology Solutions Group (NTSG) as a Board Level Product Development Engineer, where you ll sit at the center of hardware innovation, manufacturing excellence, and product delivery. This role is ideal for an engineer who thrives at the intersection of design, manufacturing, and scale.

You ll own products end-to-end — from early concepts and prototype through high-volume production and end of life — ensuring smooth transitions from development into manufacturing. Partnering closely with internal engineering teams, contract manufacturers, suppliers, and customer-facing groups, you ll play a critical role in delivering high-quality, reliable networking and AI hardware to market.

This is a highly cross-functional, hands-on role with global exposure, offering deep insight into how cutting-edge hardware products are designed, built, tested, and sustained at scale.

You re a proactive, solutions-oriented engineer who takes pride in ownership and accountability. You communicate clearly, build trust quickly, and are comfortable influencing decisions across engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, and quality teams.

You re energized by solving complex problems, navigating ambiguity, and balancing technical depth with practical execution. You re equally comfortable working hands-on with factories as you are collaborating with design engineers and leadership. You thrive in fast-paced environments where product quality, time-to-market, and operational excellence matter.
