What We Need

A Senior Packaging Engineer responsible for architecting and delivering advanced multi‑die IC packages for high‑performance AI accelerators. This role focuses on package architecture, substrate design, manufacturability, and vendor engagement.

Key Responsibilities
  • Select and design optimal multi‑die package types (MCM, 2.5D, 3D, fan‑out, CoWoS, InFO, CPC, CPO) balancing electrical performance, thermal behavior, cost, and manufacturability.
  • Define package specifications, bump map and ball map, interposer requirements, and mechanical constraints.
  • Define substrate stack‑ups, bump pitch, ball pitch, routing, via structures, and material choices for performance and manufacturability.
  • Perform high‑speed signal escaping, routing and power distribution network design.
  • Manage subcontractors and work directly with TSMC and/or OSAT on bumping, substrate options, and advanced packaging flows.
  • Partner with IC design, physical design, SI/PI, and board teams to ensure package requirements meet system‑level needs.
  • Evaluate emerging packaging technologies and drive adoption for next‑generation products.
  • Support package‑level bring‑up, failure analysis, debug, and qualification.
Required

Skills & Qualifications
  • B.S./M.S. in Electrical Engineering or related field.
  • Experience with multi‑die package design and UCIe (AP/SP) integration.
  • Understanding of substrate materials, stack‑ups, and mechanical constraints.
  • Familiarity with SI/PI concepts to collaborate effectively with electrical teams.
  • Experience managing packaging subcontractors.
  • Experience interfacing with TSMC/OSAT for bumping and packaging options.
  • Knowledge of package modeling tools (HFSS, Sigrity, or similar) is a plus.
Compensation

Target base salary for this role is $180,000–$240,000 per year + meaningful equity + benefits + 401k. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, experience, and location.
