You are an exceptional communicator who can translate complex technical challenges into strategic roadmaps and influence senior leadership, while also engaging deeply with key customers to solve their most critical performance needs.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Strategic Leadership: Set the technical vision and roadmap for workload optimization across the AI software stack, ensuring AMD remains the platform of choice for top-tier AI customers.
Workload Performance Engineering: Lead the profiling, analysis, and tuning of large-scale models (LLMs, Diffusion, Multimodal, and MoE) to ensure "out-of-the-box" performance excellence on AMD hardware.
Customer Engagement: Partner with top customers and hyperscalers to understand their unique workload requirements and deliver tailored architectural wins and software optimizations.

Proven history of optimizing distributed inference and training at scale across multi-node/multi-GPU environments.
Mastery of performance profiling tools (e.g., TorchProfiler, ROCm Profiler, Nsight) and hardware-level performance modeling.
Strong understanding of modern model architectures (Transformer, Attention, KV Cache) and optimization techniques like quantization, speculative decoding, and FlashAttention.
Demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional initiatives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments.
