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.

From autonomous vehicles and industrial robotics to smart healthcare devices, AMD AECG is redefining intelligent edge computing.

The Person

AMD’s AECG group is searching for an experienced x86 Software Solution Architect and Planner to help deliver customer focused solutions for the next generation of embedded x86 silicon products. The ideal candidate thrives in a dynamic environment driving innovation and new technology.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with market segment architects and business leads to create customer focused x86 solutions to address the complex needs of customers in Aerospace, Automotive, Medical, Robotics, Industrial and Vision markets.
  • Work closely with software engineering and product planning teams to define all aspects of the embedded software stacks such as:
    • BIOS, Firmware, Debug and Diagnostic Tools
    • Operating System Support such as Yocto, Ubuntu, QNX, Windows, and Android OS
    • Hypervisors such as Xen and QVM
    • ROCm and Ryzen AI software support for iGPU and NPU’s
    • Specialized Application stacks such as AMD’s Virtualized Automotive Stack (VIS), Robot Operating System (ROS), Multi-Media Analytics, AI Models, VLM and LLM’s
  • Work with product marketing and engineering teams to prioritize and align software and solution deliverables during release planning processes.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
