We are looking for an accomplished leader with a proven track record in managing cross-functional teams to deliver low-power RF/mixed-signal SoCs into high-volume markets—on time, within budget, and to specification.
Key Responsibilities
* Develop and drive company-wide methodologies for efficient SoC development and integration across analog, RF, digital, and software design, including design-for-test (DfT), pre-silicon verification, post-silicon validation, and production testing.
* Leverage industry-standard design flow expertise to define and implement requirements management and traceability throughout the product development flow.
* Lead and manage cross-organizational functional teams (EDA & DevOps, digital physical design, custom layout, etc.) to meet short- and long-term company objectives.
* Define and manage IP & platform roadmaps, ensuring availability across a broad range of product lines.
* Coordinate project schedules with multiple teams to balance priorities and meet deadlines.
* Hire, mentor, and develop top engineering talent to raise the bar in the industry and drive cutting-edge product development.
