Job description

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

Join an inclusive team passionate about one thing: using their expertise in the relentless pursuit of innovation for customers and partners. The solutions we build help make everything from virtual reality experiences to breakthroughs in neural networks possible. We do it all while committing to integrity, sustainability, and giving back to our communities. Because doing so can fuel the very innovation we are pursuing.

Responsibilities

• Own package architecture and execution from feasibility through tape-out, qualification, and production readiness, ensuring design intent is translated into manufacturable, reliable, and scalable solutions.

• Serve as the technical authority for complex package issues, leading cross-functional reviews, trade‑off decisions, and risk closure across product, silicon, technology, assembly, quality, supplier, and OSAT teams. Balance performance, reliability, manufacturability, cost, quality, and schedule to deliver production‑ready solutions while mentoring engineers through difficult technical decisions.

• Advance design rules, methodologies, automation workflows, and technology roadmaps for future products.

• Represent the packaging team in Silicon–package–board co‑design by integrating floorplan, interface, interconnect, power, signal, thermal, and mechanical requirements, and resolve cost and manufacturing trade‑offs to achieve a balanced package solution.
• Ability to apply baseline digital fluency and role‑appropriate AI literacy to use AI‑enabled tools responsibly and effectively for research, analysis, content creation, problem‑solving, operational tasks, and achieving business outcome.

Requirements

• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Engineering, or a related discipline; PhD candidates are welcome to apply.

• Minimum 10 years of relevant experience with deep expertise in package architecture and silicon–package co‑design, including feasibility, stack‑up, I/O and interconnect planning, substrate layout, routing, power delivery, signal return paths, and design verification.

• Hands‑on experience with multiple relevant package technologies and strong knowledge of manufacturability, assembly processes, substrates, materials, reliability, and failure mechanisms.

• Proven ownership of complex package designs from feasibility and trade‑off studies through NPI tape‑out, qualification, and manufacturing handoff.

• Advanced proficiency with Cadence Allegro Package Designer / SiP Layout or equivalent package‑design tools, including design‑rule and review workflows.

• Strong technical leadership, mentoring, and stakeholder communication skills, with influence without direct authority; MTS candidates must demonstrate organization‑wide impact on roadmaps, standards, or investment decisions.
• Integrates AI‑assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness, exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements.

• Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI‑enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work
