Senior/Principal EDA Engineer, Electronic Design Automation, Texas Institute for Electronics Full-time

Senior/Principal EDA Engineer, Electronic Design Automation, Texas Institute for Electronics

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.

The Senior EDA Engineer will support the EDA implementation roadmap for TIE; multi-component and chiplet integration platforms, working hands-on with design kits, simulation tools, and reference flows. The Senior Engineer will develop and maintain comprehensive process design kits (PDKs) and assembly design kits (ADKs), including modeling, verification, and enablement collateral to accelerate customer adoption. The Senior Engineer will work directly with EDA tools (Synopsys, Cadence, Ansys, Siemens) and packaging design teams to integrate electrical, thermal, and mechanical simulation workflows. The Senior Engineer will work on Jira, Version Control tools to enable the Internal and External Development teams. The Senior Engineer will apply AI based deployment of the EDA flows, PDK development. The Senior Engineer will collaborate with engineering, packaging design, product marketing, and EDA vendors to ensure design enablement flows are validated, documented, and continuously refined. The Senior Engineer will create detailed technical documentation, user guides, reference flows, and onboarding materials to support customer design teams. The Senior Engineer will assist in program planning activities covering scope, schedules, risk mitigation, and resource allocation to support predictable execution. The Senior Engineer will monitor EDA market trends and competitive developments, providing technical insights to guide tool integration decisions and platform improvements. The Senior Engineer will support program transparency and accountability, ensuring technical deliverables are on track and stakeholders are informed of progress and risks.

The Principal EDA Engineer will drive the strategic vision and implementation roadmap for EDA across TIE; multi-component and chiplet integration platforms—spanning design kits, simulation tools, and reference flows from concept to production deployment. The Principal Engineer will lead technical development of comprehensive process design kits (PDKs) and assembly design kits (ADKs), including multi-physics modeling, qualification strategies, and customer enablement collateral. The Principal Engineer will set technical direction for EDA packaging workflows, establishing best practices and qualification criteria that span electrical, RF, thermal, and mechanical simulation domains. The Principal Engineer will manage relationships with TIE subcontractors, vendors, and EDA partners (Synopsys, Cadence, Ansys, Siemens). The Principal Engineer will drive cross-functional collaboration with engineering, packaging design, product marketing, and major EDA vendors to align design enablement flows, establish validation protocols, and continuously improve platform capabilities. The Principal Engineer will develop and execute detailed program plans covering scope, schedules, risk mitigation, resource allocation, and customer communication. The Principal Engineer will own the creation of comprehensive technical documentation, reference architectures, onboarding frameworks, and strategic collateral that position TIE as an EDA innovator and strengthen customer confidence. The Principal Engineer will monitor EDA market trends, competitive developments, and emerging technologies. The Principal Engineer will champion a culture of accountability and transparency across all program workstreams. The Principal Engineer will mentor junior technical staff and build high-performing teams.
