$177K–$275K

Austin, TX +1 · Principal · Full-time · Posted Sep 29, 2026

Location
Austin, TX
Cupertino, CA
Experience
10+ years managing complex technology projects and 10+ years working directly with engineering teams.

About the job

Own end-to-end execution of a complex multi-die ML accelerator chip program, coordinating engineering, infrastructure, and external partners from RTL freeze through tape-out and production readiness.

What you'll do

  • Manage integrated schedules, critical paths, dependencies, and schedule impacts across tape-outs, engineering samples, and production ramp.
  • Coordinate weekly program status and drive responses to verification convergence, design-partner, infrastructure, and IP-delivery risks.
  • Manage external partner schedules and infrastructure readiness, escalating delivery gaps before they affect tape-out.

What they ask for

  • 10+ years of hands-on work managing complex technology projects.
  • 10+ years working directly with engineering teams.
  • Deep working knowledge of the chip development lifecycle, including RTL verification milestones, physical design convergence, DFT, and timing closure.
  • Experience managing programs with external design partners and IP vendors; ability to build dependency-based integrated schedules and communicate status to VP-level audiences.

Nice to have

  • Experience with multi-die, chiplet, or advanced packaging programs; HBM integration, die-to-die interfaces, high-speed serial subsystems, or leading-edge foundry nodes.
  • Background in ML accelerator or high-performance compute silicon, or infrastructure capacity planning for large-scale chip development programs.

Pay

203,500.00 - 275,300.00 USD annually (base salary); 177,000.00 - 239,400.00 USD annually (base salary)
