Job description

SECTION II: ROLE SUMMARY (Purpose of the Role)

Lead and manage the CAD Infrastructure function for LTSCT’s semiconductor chip design organization. The role is responsible for ensuring seamless availability of high-performance compute resources, licensing systems, data center infrastructure to support multiple R&D design teams. The role spans across infrastructure setup, tool deployment, system administration, and data center operations, ensuring reliability, scalability and performance of engineering environments. The role also plays a key part in building and operationalizing in-house data center capabilities to support advanced chip design.

SECTION III: KEY RESPONSIBILITIES/ ACCOUNTABILITIES
CAD Tool Licensing & Installation	Own the management of all CAD tool licenses ensuring tools are licensed, renewed on time, and available to support ongoing and upcoming chip design programs. Manage the installation and configuration of chip design tools on the compute infrastructure, ensuring tools are correctly set up and accessible to the R&D teams. Evaluate alternate tool options available in the market and recommend cost effective alternatives where applicable. Work closely with the CAD Design team to identify and onboard new tools or capabilities where existing tools do not meet the evolving design requirements.
Compute & Infrastructure Support	Set up and manage compute infrastructure required for chip design including high-performance servers, storage systems, CPUs, GPU based machines to support simulation and validation workloads. Manage the day-to-day compute infrastructure supporting chip design workloads including servers, data storage and high-load simulation environments. Provide continuous infrastructure support to R&D teams during chip design operations, identifying and resolving issues related to tools, compute access, system performance and infrastructure availability that impact chip program timelines.
Data Center Build & Operations	Support the planning, design, and implementation of LTSCT’s in-house data center infrastructure including architecture, configuration and commissioning based on current and future program requirements. Collaborate with cross functional teams including Procurement, Finance, and IT to evaluate, select, and deploy appropriate hardware ensuring alignment with performance, scalability, and cost objectives. Collaborate with external consulting partners engaged in data center design and setup, ensuring alignment with technical requirements and enabling knowledge transfer to internal teams. Contribute to establishing and operationalizing data center management processes, including capacity planning, resource allocation, system monitoring and performance optimization to ensure reliable support for high-load simulation and chip design activities. Ensure seamless transition from data center setup to steady-state operations by defining standard operating procedures, incident management protocols, and support models for ongoing infrastructure maintenance.
Operational Support & Service Delivery	Act as a central support organization for all R&D teams, ensuring infrastructure, tools, and environments are available prior to and during chip design execution. Ensure minimal disruption to design activities by proactively addressing infrastructure issues and maintaining high-system reliability.
