Gen AI Software Development Engineer
AMD - Santa Clara, CA
Hiring: Gen AI Software Development Engineer Company: AMD Location: Santa Clara, CA Job Posted Time: 2026-09-16 10:02:24 Employment Type: Hybrid Target Skills & Keywords : API Design, AWS, Azure, C#, GCP, GitHub, Go, HBase, Java, LLM, Make, Node.js, Python, RAG, Rails, Rust, TypeScript About the job Required Skills: •We are building a platform where autonomous AI agents run hardware validation campaigns, triage failures, and continuously grow a shared knowledge base — without a human in the loop. You will be a core engineer on this system, designing and building the LLM agent framework, RAG pipelines, MCP backend, and developer tooling that make it work. This role sits within the Global Cluster Engineering organization, where you will develop software that powers distributed infrastructure at global scale. This is an AI-native software engineering role: you will spend your time building multi-agent orchestration systems, retrieval-augmented generation pipelines, tool-use frameworks, and knowledge graph integrations. You do not need deep hardware domain knowledge — but intellectual curiosity about how firmware validation and network hardware works will help you build better tools for the engineers who do. We are hiring two Senior Software Engineers into this role; specific areas of ownership will be shaped by each person's strengths and interests. •Experience: software development experience, with a strong portfolio of production systems •AI-Native Development: Genuine passion for building AI-native software — you follow the field, have shipped real LLM-powered systems, and care about getting the details right (grounding, evaluation, failure modes, not just prompts) •RAG Systems: Hands-on experience building RAG pipelines — embedding models, vector databases, chunking strategies, retrieval evaluation, hybrid search, and reranking •LLM Engineering: Production experience with LLM tool use, multi-agent orchestration, prompt engineering, context management, and hallucination mitigation •Core Skills: Strong proficiency in one or more modern programming languages such as Python, TypeScript/Node.js, Go, Java, C#, or Rust, with demonstrated ability to build and operate production-scale services. Python experience is preferred due to the AI/ML ecosystem •Engineering excellence: Async programming, API design, distributed systems, clean code practices. Experience designing for reliability in automated/unattended environments — crash recovery, audit trails, state management, observability •Cloud Infrastructure: Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP — infrastructure provisioning, managed services, networking, and deploying production workloads at scale •AI Tooling: Active use of AI coding assistants and LLM-powered developer tools (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.) to accelerate development and problem-solving •Key Responsibiliti Compensation: •$204,000 •$306,000 Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
