What you will do

• Define the multi-year vision, strategy, roadmap, business plan, and investment priorities for the 12nm compute portfolio.
• Translate market and customer needs into platform requirements covering processors, memory, interconnects, accelerators, security, safety, I/O, software, tools, packaging, and reference systems.
• Build reusable platform families and derivative products, balancing configuration, customer IP, chiplets, custom development, and portfolio economics.
• Lead cross-functional execution from concept and business approval through silicon development, software enablement, sampling, production release, customer ramp, and post-launch optimization.
• Develop the surrounding ecosystem of IP, EDA, operating-system, middleware, toolchain, design-service, board, distributor, and application partners.
• Own customer and partner relationships, design-win strategy, launch readiness, revenue growth, margin, pipeline, adoption, and return-on-investment metrics.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, or a closely related technical field.
• 8+ years of semiconductor, embedded-computing, processor, SoC, platform, or related product experience, including 5+ years in product management, platform leadership, product marketing, applications, or customer-facing technical leadership.
• Experience with 32-bit or 64-bit compute products and demonstrated understanding of both SoC hardware and software.
• Proven semiconductor or embedded-platform launch experience from market definition and requirements through customer adoption and production ramp.
• Experience with product revenue growth, design wins, portfolio expansion, business cases, pricing, margins, forecasts, and measurable launch plans.
• Strong executive communication, customer and partner leadership, ecosystem development, and cross-functional influence skills.

Nice to have
