You are a visionary technical leader who thrives at the intersection of engineering excellence and customer-centric innovation. With a proven track record in architecting and delivering cutting-edge solutions for complex system-level challenges, you possess deep expertise in semiconductor, EDA, or high-tech environments. Your passion for driving results is matched only by your ability to inspire and mentor multidisciplinary teams, fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous learning. You are adept at translating customer requirements into robust, scalable architectures that anticipate future needs, and you excel at navigating ambiguity to deliver strategic clarity. Your communication skills enable you to engage effectively with executive stakeholders, engineering teams, and customers alike, ensuring alignment and shared vision. You are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and believe that diverse perspectives fuel innovation.

Job Responsibilities:

  • Leading the architecture and design of innovative, high-performance solutions supporting NXP’s advanced technologies and products.
  • Collaborating with product management, R&D, and customer-facing teams to define and refine solution requirements and roadmaps.
  • Translating complex customer requirements into scalable, modular system architectures and actionable engineering plans.
  • Guiding and mentoring cross-functional engineering teams through the full solution lifecycle—from concept through deployment and support.
  • Driving technical due diligence and feasibility studies for new technology initiatives and strategic customer engagements.
  • Presenting solution architectures to executive stakeholders, customers, and partners, articulating technical value and business impact.
  • Identifying and mitigating architectural risks, ensuring solutions meet stringent quality, reliability, and security standards.
  • Staying abreast of industry trends, competitive landscape, and emerging technologies to inform NXP’s technology strategy.

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Accelerate the adoption of NXP’s advanced technologies in high-impact customer applications.
  • Shape the technical direction and architectural vision of next-generation solutions, driving company-wide innovation.
  • Enable NXP to deliver differentiated value and maintain its leadership in the semiconductor and EDA markets.
  • Mentor and develop engineering talent, fostering a high-performing, inclusive, and collaborative team culture.
  • Enhance customer satisfaction and success through robust, future-proof solutions tailored to evolving industry needs.
  • Champion best practices in architecture, design, and engineering, raising the technical bar across the organization.
  • Influence strategic partnerships and alliances through technical thought leadership and innovation.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related track
  • Extensive experience (10+ years) architecting and engineering complex solutions in semiconductor, EDA, or related high-tech industries.
  • Expert-level proficiency in system architecture, SoC design, verification methodologies, and IP integration.
  • Strong knowledge of hardware/software co-design, cloud-enabled workflows, and advanced process technologies.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead technical teams and manage large-scale, cross-functional projects.
  • Proficiency in industry-standard tools and platforms (e.g., Verilog, VHDL, SystemVerilog, UVM, RTL design, simulation, emulation, cloud orchestration).

Familiarity with AI/ML, security, and data analytics as applied to electronic design automation is a plus.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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.
