In this role, you will be the core driver keeping the RTL-to-GDSII physical implementation timeline on track. You will combine your technical VLSI background with program management methodologies to manage cross-functional dependencies, identify bottlenecks, mitigate tape-out risks, and communicate milestone health to executive leadership.\nKey Responsibilities\nDefine, build, and execute the end-to-end program plan for full-chip physical implementation, spanning early synthesis, floorplanning, PnR, CTS, timing closure, sign-off, and final GDSII delivery.\nCoordinate and track critical dependencies across upstream and downstream teams, including RTL Front-End, Design Verification (DV), DFT, Package Design, Signal/Power Integrity, and Foundry partners.\nProactively identify technical, resource, or schedule bottlenecks (e.g., late RTL drops, timing closure stalls, EMIR or DRC hotspots). Drive engineering teams to build concrete recovery plans.\nOrchestrate milestone reviews (e.g., Netlist Ready, Floorplan Freeze, Tape-out Sign-off Reviews) to ensure all entry and exit criteria are rigorously met.\nTranslate highly complex technical layouts, layout bugs, and timing closure metrics into clear, high-level status dashboards and execution updates for executive stakeholders.\nContinuously evaluate and refine the physical design execution flow. Implement agile tracking systems, retrospective frameworks, and automation hooks to accelerate future tape-out cycles.\nSkill Requirements\n10+ years of total experience in the semiconductor industry, with a minimum of 3+ years acting as a TPM or Engineering Lead specifically handling digital physical design .\nStrong working knowledge of the digital implementation flow (Synthesis, PnR, CTS, STA/Timing Closure, Physical Verification, and EMIR). You must be able to understand technical discussions with engineers and question resource limitations.\nExpert proficiency in program tracking suites such as Jira, Confluence, Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent Agile/Waterfall frameworks.\nOther Requirements\nPMP (Project Management Professional) or Agile/Scrum certification is a plus, provided it is backed by deep VLSI engineering experience.\nOutstanding interpersonal and conflict-resolution skills, with a proven ability to influence engineering teams across multiple geographic sites without direct authority.\nExperience managing high-pressure environments during final tape-out crunch phases.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2667,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":10,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["IT Consulting & Digital Transformation","IT Outsourcing & Dedicated Teams","Systems Integrators"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-23T11:53:27Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":99,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.993,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:12","wave","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-25T05:49:26Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/hcltech-technical-project-manager-17","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/hcltech-technical-project-manager-17.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-25T16:46:30Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":24223,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-26T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":225},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=225"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fhcltech-technical-project-manager-17"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fhcltech-technical-project-manager-17"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fhcltech-technical-project-manager-17"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/hcltech-technical-project-manager-17\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fhcltech-technical-project-manager-17"}]}
