AMD Versal / PL Integration & IPC (iRDK)
Drive AMD Versal SoC bringup for the iRDK platform, with a focus on programmable logic (PL) integration and inter-processor communication (IPC) with the AMD APU.
Responsibilities
● Bring up AMD Versal SoC on iRDK custom board from EVK reference
● Develop and validate PL integration: IP instantiation, configuration, AXI interfaces
● Implement and validate IPC mechanisms between Versal AI Core / RPU and AMD APU (RPMsg, OpenAMP, shared memory)
● Develop BSP and drivers for Versal PS subsystems (RPU and APU partitions)
● Work with AMD/Xilinx on Versal platform tools (Vitis, Petalinux)
● Validate real-time latency and data throughput across the PL–PS–APU boundary
● Bring up Sample Applications on PL IP Integration, Versal/X86 Interfaces.
Qualifications
● Bachelor''s or Master''s degree in Computer Science/Engineering or related field
● 5+ years'' experience in Embedded Software Development
● Hands-on Versal or Zynq UltraScale+ bringup experience
● FPGA/PL Driver integration: Vitis HLS, IP integration, AXI interconnect
● IPC implementation: RPMsg, OpenAMP, or shared-memory communication
● Petalinux / Yocto, Xilinx/AMD SDK toolchain
● C/C++, Python/Rust; hardware debug and Xilinx debug tooling
Preferred Skills:
● AMD Versal AI Core or Versal Premium hands-on experience
● Automotive domain (ADAS or cockpit)
● Safety-capable RPU lockstep configuration experience
● DMA engine and high-bandwidth PL–PS data path experience
