We partner closely with our customers across a wide range of industries to maximize their R&D capability and productivity, powering innovation today that ignites the ingenuity of tomorrow.You AreYou are a senior technical leader who thrives on solving difficult engineering and quality problems that matter. You bring deep experience in silicon, logic, or related systems, along with strong expertise in I/O and interface IP. You know how to take on technically complex, high-visibility issues, cut through ambiguity, and drive practical solutions that improve product quality and execution.You have a track record of leading root cause analysis, strengthening engineering practices, and helping teams solve recurring problems in ways that last. You are comfortable working across functions, influencing stakeholders through technical credibility, and bringing clarity to situations where the stakes are high and the path forward is not obvious. You also elevate the people around you by sharing expertise, mentoring engineers, and helping teams operate at a higher level.What You'll Be DoingLead deep technical RCCA and 8D investigations for complex, high-impact silicon IP quality issues and drive corrective actions through to resolutionImprove and scale quality methods, standards, and engineering practices that enable stronger, more predictable execution across teamsPartner with design, applications, program management, and other stakeholders to resolve cross-functional quality challengesMentor engineers through technical reviews, problem-solving discussions, and lessons learned, helping strengthen overall team capabilityIdentify systemic quality risks early and drive the right cross-team actions before issues escalateServe as a trusted technical partner for internal stakeholders, bringing clarity, judgment, and practical direction to difficult problemsContribute to stronger design flows, quality systems, and operating practices that improve both current execution and future scalabilityThe Impact You Will HaveStrengthen product quality and customer confidence by helping teams resolve difficult issues with rigor and transparencyReduce escalations by driving root-cause-based solutions instead of short-term fixesRaise the standard for how quality issues are investigated, communicated, and resolvedExpand your impact beyond individual problems by embedding stronger quality ownership and best practices across the organizationHelp create a more scalable and resilient engineering environment where teams can move faster with greater confidenceLeave systems, methods, and teams stronger than you found themWhat You'll NeedAdvanced degree (MS, PhD, or MBA) with 8+ years of experience in advanced technical roles across silicon, systems, or softwareStrong expertise in at least one core Silicon IP interface such as PHY, SerDes, DDR, HBM, or UCIe, with a broad understanding of adjacent domainsProven experience leading RCCA and 8D investigations that resulted in meaningful quality, process, or execution improvementsAbility to work independently in ambiguous, technically demanding environments and bring structure to complex problemsStrong communication and influence skills, with the ability to work effectively across engineering and stakeholder groupsExperience driving improvements that span teams, projects, product lines, or technology generations is a plusExperience building or improving repeatable engineering and quality practices is highly valuedHands-on experience with Microsoft Office, Confluence, and Jira for documentation, reporting, and trackingExperience with automation, workflow digitization, or quality data analytics is a plusWho You AreYou bring clarity to difficult technical problems and help teams move toward actionYou are someone engineers trust when the stakes are high and the path is not obviousYou look for durable fixes, not workaroundsYou influence through technical depth, sound judgment, and collaborationYou are motivated by improving both product quality and how teams work together to deliver itThe Team You'll Be Part OfYour recruiter will share more about the team structure and mission during the interview process.Rewards and BenefitsWe offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs.
