The Principal EDA Engineer will drive the hands-on implementation of electronic design automation (EDA) solutions for TIE's multi-component and chiplet integration platforms. The Principal Engineer will focus on developing and optimizing design kits, simulation methodologies, and reference flows from concept to deployment, acting as a key technical contributor and innovator.

  • Drive the hands-on technical implementation of EDA solutions to include TIE's multi-component and chiplet integration platforms.
  • Develop and optimize comprehensive process design kits (PDKs) and assembly design kits (ADKs), including modeling, verification, and enablement collateral to accelerate customer adoption of TIE's technologies.
  • Collaborate closely with TIE subcontractors to clearly define Statements of Work (SoW) in quantifiable metrics, monitor milestone progress, and adjust deliverables and payable milestones as needed. You'll ensure everyone is on the same page and that expectations translate into measurable outcomes.
  • Act as a hands-on technical authority for EDA packaging workflows, bridging electrical, thermal, and mechanical simulation domains. You will represent TIE in technical working groups, customer design reviews, and ecosystem partnerships.
  • Drive cross-functional collaboration with engineering, packaging design, product marketing, and major EDA vendors (Synopsys, Cadence, Ansys, Siemens) to ensure design enablement flows are aligned, validated, and continuously improved.
  • Develop and execute detailed program plans covering scope, schedules, risk mitigation, resource allocation, and customer communication. You will deliver predictable outcomes in fast-paced, multi-stakeholder engagements.
  • Create technical documentation and collateral, including user guides, reference flows, and onboarding materials to support customer design teams and strengthen TIE's position as an EDA innovator.
  • Monitor EDA market trends and competitive developments, providing actionable insights to guide tool integration, design enablement priorities, and platform differentiation.
  • Champion a culture of accountability and transparency across all program workstreams-ensuring stakeholders are informed, expectations are managed, and commitments are met.
  • BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related discipline.
  • 8+ years of experience in Electronic Design Automation (EDA), semiconductor design enablement, or advanced packaging workflows.
  • Deep technical expertise with Synopsys, Cadence, Ansys, or Siemens design flows for chiplet and heterogeneous integration.
  • You have built and deployed packaged-related PDKs/ADKs and understand the nuances of modeling, simulation, and qualification across electrical, RF, mechanical, and thermal domains.
  • Exceptional communication skills. You know how to simplify the complex, create clear deliverables, and build trust with both technical and business audiences.
  • Startup DNA. You're energized by ambiguity, act with urgency, and take personal ownership for outcomes. You make things happen.
  • Execution mindset. You have demonstrated experience working in a hands-on role driving progress across multiple initiatives without layers of management.
  • Must be authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis for any employer without sponsorship.
  • Location. Austin, Texas is preferred for close collaboration with our engineering teams and partners. Hybrid work arrangements may be possible with travel up to 30-50%. Such arrangements are subject to University review and approval in relation to jurisdictional employment-related laws, rules, and regulations.
  • MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Proven program management chops. You can demonstrate end-to-end ownership of programs involving multiple customer or partner stakeholders. You know how to define success, manage dependencies, and keep everyone aligned and motivated-even when things get complex.
  • Experience working directly with subcontractors, vendors, and partners to define clear expectations, manage deliverables, and hold teams accountable to milestones.
