Your scope runs from the wafer to the packaged, tested device, operating where custom-silicon economics, yield/test realities, and aggressive timelines collide. This is a deep-expertise role: you already speak the language of wafer agreements, assembly/test economics, and foundry capacity, and you've sat across the table from the largest players in the industry.\nWhat you'll do:\nOwn the commercial relationship with foundries, OSATs (assembly & advanced packaging), and test/ATE vendors across the full silicon lifecycle\nNegotiate the agreements that govern them - MSAs, MPAs/MPSAs, NDAs, SOWs, capacity/pricing, and tooling/NRE terms - balancing cost, capacity, quality, and risk\nRead the semiconductor commodity landscape - forecast trends and capacity/pricing dynamics and turn them to DensityAI's advantage\nBuild and own the silicon cost model (wafer cost, die-per-wafer/yield, packaging, test time/ATE, NRE/mask) and use it to drive negotiations and design-for-cost decisions with engineering\nSecure capacity and supply continuity across nodes and packaging technologies - managing allocation risk, lead times, and second-source strategy in a constrained market\nPartner deeply with engineering and program management (design, packaging, test, quality, NPI) so commercial strategy and technical execution move as one\nTranslate technical realities (yield ramps, test escapes, qualification) into cost, margin, and program-risk outcomes, and brief leadership crisply\nWhat we're looking for:\nFirst-hand experience managing the commercial relationship with a major logic foundry, plus at least one of a leading OSAT or test/ATE vendor (ideally more)\nProven ownership of MSA/MPA/NDA/SOW negotiations with foundry, OSAT, and/or test partners\nFluency in custom-silicon/ASIC economics - how wafer pricing, yield, packaging, and test build into unit cost, and which levers move it\nA working command of the technical drivers (yields, test coverage, qualification flows) and how each hits cost and commercial success\nAn established network across the foundry/OSAT/test ecosystem\nWorking understanding of advanced packaging - specifically CoWoS-L and CoWoS-R - and how packaging choice drives capacity, cost, and supply risk\nComfort with ambiguity and pace; you bring structure where there is none and treat direction changes as opportunity\nTook a custom ASIC from tape-out through high-volume production, owning supply commercials end-to-end (preferred)\nBackground in custom silicon, hyperscale ASIC, or merchant/AI-silicon programs (preferred)\nHands-on with advanced packaging (2.5D/3D, CoWoS-L / CoWoS-R, chiplets, EMIB, substrate) and the related OSAT/foundry capacity dynamics (preferred)\nCompensation\nFinal offers depend on level, location, and skills relevant to the role. Additional compensation: equity grant per company guidelines; medical / dental / vision; 401(k); standard PTO. \nVisa Sponsorship\nDensityAI sponsors qualified candidates for H-1B, O-1, TN, E-3, and other employment-based visas, and we welcome applicants on F-1 OPT and STEM-OPT. Work authorization is required at start; we provide immigration support to secure or transfer status.\nExport Controls\nAspects of this role may involve access to information subject to U.S. export controls (EAR/ITAR). We may discuss licensing or scope adjustments during the interview.\nEqual Opportunity\nDensityAI is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
