  • 25-30 years of experience in IC design with a BSEE degree, or 22-25 years with an MSEE or PhD.
  • Expert knowledge of analog and adjacent-domain methodology, including circuit-to-layout, circuit-to-timing, silicon-to-lab correlation, SI/PI integration, and other mixed-signal cross-domain workflows.
  • Deep understanding of transistor-level circuit design, CMOS fundamentals, and physical IP, including reliability effects such as electromigration, IR drop, and aging.
  • Experience defining methodology for advanced nodes with circuit enablement teams and foundries.
  • Experience collaborating across a broad mixed-signal IP portfolio and aligning methodology requirements among multiple engineering organizations.
  • Ability to set objectives and approach for critical methodology assignments, and coach, review, and approve the work of others.
  • Ability to take on unique issues that can determine success or shape future methodology, using independent judgment.
  • Lead for major customers and main partner to circuit enablement and foundries on advanced-node methodology.
  • Contact for product teams’ leadership and the organizations that plan, enable, apply, and bring the IP to market.
  • Own priorities, customer engagement, and execution strategy for analog and adjacent-domain methodologies.
