Job Description

We are seeking a Silicon Technologies Strategic Partnerships & Sourcing Manager to lead Silicon Technologies Strategic Partnerships and Sourcing across advanced silicon nodes and enabling technologies (e.g., foundry ecosystem, packaging, IP, and critical supply-chain partnerships). This role owns the end-to-end strategy for supplier engagement and commercial outcomes, translating long-range compute and product needs into sourcing, contracting, and partnership roadmaps that ensure capacity, cost, technology access, resiliency, and speed.

Job Responsibility

  • Define and execute the multi-year partnership strategy for silicon technology suppliers (foundries, OSATs/packaging, IP/EDA ecosystems as applicable, materials/critical upstream partners)
  • Serve as a single-threaded leader for executive engagements, QBRs, JTAs/JDAs, and joint roadmaps with key partners
  • Build and manage technology collaboration frameworks (roadmap alignment, co-development constructs, governance, escalation paths)
  • Own sourcing strategy for assigned silicon technology domains: supplier selection, negotiation strategy, capacity/reservation approach, and contracting
  • Lead complex negotiations covering pricing models, capacity commitments, NRE/engineering funding, roadmap commitments, risk-sharing, and terms/SLAs
  • Develop and maintain should-cost / cost driver models and scenario-based business cases to support decisions
  • Drive alignment across engineering, product, finance, legal, ops, quality/reliability, and supply chain to convert technical requirements into executable sourcing plans
  • Lead cross-functional governance (operating cadence, executive readouts, issue resolution) for strategic supplier initiatives
  • Partner closely with internal silicon and platform teams to align on process nodes, packaging architectures, yield ramps, and lifecycle transitions
  • Build a comprehensive risk posture: capacity, geopolitical, dual-source, qualification strategy, materials constraints, and business continuity
  • Define mitigation plans (second source strategy, buffer/capacity options, contract protections, multi-tier visibility)
  • Maintain good understanding of semiconductor market dynamics: capacity cycles, node transitions, packaging trends, supplier financials, competitive landscape
  • Provide strategic insights and recommendations for make/buy, partner selection, and investment priorities

Requirements

  • 12+ years experience in semiconductor strategic sourcing, supplier management, foundry/OSAT engagement, or silicon ecosystem partnerships (or equivalent)
  • Proven track record leading high-stakes negotiations and executing multi-year sourcing/partnership agreements
  • Demonstrated experience leading cross-functional teams without authority and deliver results through ambiguity
  • Commercial/analytical skills: contracting, pricing structures, cost modeling, scenario analysis
  • Executive communication skills (internal and external), including crisp narrative content and data-backed decision framing

Nice to have

  • Experience with one or more: advanced process nodes, chipsets, chiplet/advanced packaging, substrate constraints, yield/capacity ramp planning
  • Experience structuring JDA/JTA/co-development agreements and technology roadmap commitments
  • Understanding of supply chain risk management in semiconductors (multi-tier, geopolitical, allocation environments)
  • Prior experience operating in a hyperscale / large platform environment with complex stakeholder sets
