The posting

Help Europe’s most ambitious semiconductor startups move from breakthrough ideas to market-ready chips. Apply About the role

Europe is investing heavily in semiconductor innovation, and the EU Chips Design Platform is at the center of that transformation.

As a Startup and Ecosystem Manager, you'll become a trusted partner for startups, SMEs, research organizations and fabless innovators across Europe. You'll guide them through the platform, connect them with the right expertise and resources, and help accelerate their path from concept to silicon.

What you will do

In this role, you'll combine ecosystem building, stakeholder management and startup support.

You will:

  • Guide and onboard users of the EU Chips Design Platform throughout their innovation journey.
  • Act as the primary contact for startups, SMEs and research teams using the platform.
  • Manage imec's contribution to the Venture Development Program, including mentoring, incubation and acceleration activities.
  • Support participants in applying for Financial Support to Third Parties (FSTP) funding opportunities.
  • Promote the platform across the European semiconductor ecosystem.
  • Build strong relationships with startups, investors, competence centers and industry stakeholders throughout Europe.
  • Identify opportunities to improve the user experience and continuously strengthen the platform's services.
  • Help shape a thriving European chip design community.

Why this role is unique

This is more than an account management role. You'll help build the ecosystem that enables the next generation of European chip companies to succeed. It offers the unique combination of:

  • Direct impact on Europe's semiconductor future.
  • Daily interaction with ambitious deep-tech startups.
  • Exposure to a broad network of innovators, investors and technology leaders.
  • The opportunity to help build a flagship initiative under the European Chips Act.
  • The reputation, expertise and global reach of imec behind you.

You'll have the chance to influence how tomorrow's chip companies are created, funded and scaled.

Who you are

We're looking for someone who combines technical understanding with a passion for helping innovators succeed, with:

  • A PhD, Master's degree or equivalent experience in microelectronics, electrical engineering, physics or a related field.
  • Knowledge of ASIC design and semiconductor development.
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
  • A customer-focused mindset and entrepreneurial attitude.
  • Willingness to travel frequently (10 % of your time) mostly in Europe.
  • Excellent English communication skills.

It’s an asset if you also bring:

  • Experience working with startups or innovation ecosystems.
  • Familiarity with venture development, incubation or accelerator programs.
  • An existing network within the European semiconductor ecosystem.
  • Experience with multiple chip design flows or EDA tools.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
