## About the role

You will own the cross-functional execution framework for advanced Silicon HW programs, from early planning through tapeout. You will drive milestones, dependencies, execution reviews, decision-making forums, risk management, and tapeout readiness across multiple engineering teams. Lead end-to-end execution of Silicon HW development programs, from concept through production, driving planning and implementation across cross-functional teams.

## What they're looking for

- 15+ years of experience in chip/IC development as an engineer, engineering manager, or technical program manager, with at least 3 years in a technical program manager role
- Experience leading Silicon HW programs through multiple phases of the silicon lifecycle, with end-to-end chip execution from concept to silicon
- Experience driving complex cross-functional programs with multiple engineering teams, technical dependencies, external vendors, and tight schedules
- Technical fluency in SoC or chiplet design flows — enough to understand RTL milestones, DV signoff, Silicon HW handoffs, and silicon bring-up phases without needing translation
- Strong technical judgment with the ability to manage tradeoffs across performance, power, area, cost, schedule, quality, and risk
- Ability to drive schedules, dependency management, issue tracking, risk management, milestone governance, and executive-level communication
