AMD currently has job listings for a Linux Kernel development manager, described on the AMD careers page as a mentor to a team of developers to enable design and implementation of “Linux operating system features supporting AMD CPUs.” The job lists responsibilities as including management of an engineering team “in the area of Linux kernel and KVM virtualization development.”

The potential fab near Austin, Texas, is expected to cost over $17 billion and to create 1,800 jobs. If everything goes as planned, it will go online by the fourth quarter of 2023. There is an intrigue about the new fab though: Samsung hasn t stated which process node it will be designed for. Could Samsung be the first to 3nm in the USA?
Samsung Foundry to Expand in the USA
