EngineeringFull-time
Key Responsibilities
- Own ASIC RTL delivery schedules across major milestones by tracking, monitoring, and reporting progress against committed plans.
- Utilize data-driven insights to predict schedule risks and proactively reallocate human resources to keep the project on track.
- Align RTL delivery schedules with DV and emulation enablement and manage feedback loops and dependencies efficiently.
- Facilitate physical design handoffs by ensuring design teams provide high-quality RTL and constraints that minimize timing-closure iterations.
- Track physical design feedback and delivery schedules to support physical design signoff and tape-out milestones.
- Lead long-term headcount planning and organizational design for the ASIC department.
- Identify skill gaps and execute global talent acquisition strategies that support the product roadmap.
Minimum Qualifications
- 15+ years in the semiconductor industry, preferably in high performance designs on advanced technology nodes, with at least 5 years in people management
- B.S. or M.S. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- Deep understanding of the interaction between Design, Verification, Emulation, and Physical Design teams
- You must know "how the work gets done" to manage the people doing it
- Proven ability to lead large engineering organizations through multiple full-cycle ASIC product launches in a remote environment
- Ability to coordinate across multiple projects, manage risks and escalations, and work under tight schedules and budget constraints
- Strong technical expertise in microarchitecture development, RTL coding (Verilog/System Verilog), synthesis, STA/timing closure, physical design, and verification methodologies
- Exposure to one or more industry standards/protocol stacks such as PCIe, Ethernet, UCIe, UALink
- Demonstrated ability to optimize designs for PPA (power, performance, area) and to integrate major subsystems (interconnect, I/O, memory)
Preferred Qualifications
- Exposure to AI based design implementation and verification flows, scripting for automation, milestone tracking and flow integration
- Experience building globally distributed ASIC design teams and scaling engineering practices in a remote environment
