In short

We are looking for a Senior Engineer - IC Package Design in Bangalore, India to manage and execute complex semiconductor product development programs. This role focuses on program execution, cross-functional coordination, and ensuring timely delivery from planning through tapeout and manufacturing readiness, utilizing project management tools and driving issue resolution.

Responsibilities

  • Support execution of IC package design programs from early design planning through tapeout and post-tapeout support.
  • Develop and maintain execution plans, schedules, task lists, and milestone trackers.
  • Track risks, issues, dependencies, and action items across package design, verification, and manufacturing activities.
  • Drive action item follow-up, escalation, and closure with clear ownership and timelines.
  • Prepare and deliver status updates, execution summaries, dashboards, and readiness reports for project and engineering stakeholders.
  • Coordinate across Package Design, Package Integration, SI/PI, and Operations teams to ensure execution alignment.
  • Work closely with Package Process teams to align design assumptions with manufacturing capabilities, process constraints, and yield considerations.
  • Partner with Substrate Engineering & Technology teams to track substrate development, availability, risks, and schedule alignment.
  • Engage with OSATs and Suppliers to support execution readiness, resolve blocking issues, and ensure manufacturability alignment.
  • Draft, document, and maintain process flows that clearly define execution steps, handoffs, inputs, and outputs across the package design lifecycle.
  • Develop clear, structured documentation describing package design and execution workflows, design release and handoff steps, readiness checks and acceptance criteria, and common issues, failure modes, and escalation paths.
  • Translate complex technical activities into repeatable, well-defined process steps.
  • Capture lessons learned and best practices and incorporate them into updated process documentation and workflows.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of System/Package Design/Technology Engineering or related work experience.
  • OR Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of System/Package Design/Technology Engineering or related work experience.
  • OR PhD in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
  • Experience supporting complex, cross-functional engineering programs.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams in parallel.
  • Experience using project / program management tools, including execution dashboards, milestone and dependency trackers, Gantt charts or schedule views, and action-item and risk tracking tools.
  • Comfortable driving execution in matrixed organizations without direct reporting authority.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Familiarity with IC package development lifecycles and execution flows.
  • Working knowledge of IC package design, layout, integration, or manufacturing concepts.
  • Exposure to package design or EDA tools such as Cadence APD / SIP, Cadence Innovus / Virtuoso, Mentor Xpedition, Valor and RAVEL.

Desired Qualifications

  • Scripting or automation experience (e.g., Python, TCL) is a plus but not required.
