Director Of Electronic Design Automation, Texas Institute For Electronics

Technical Development Manager

Lead the technical development of comprehensive process design kits (PDKs) and assembly design kits (ADKs), including modeling, verification, and enablement collateral to accelerate customer adoption of TIEs 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 while leading a team of engineers. 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 TIEs 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.
