Eliyan is building the interconnect technology that makes chiplet-based systems possible. Our NuLink™ die-to-die PHY IP and NuGear™ chiplet solutions — offered both as licensable IP and as fully integrated chiplet products — deliver up to 4x the bandwidth and half the power of alternative approaches, letting the industry’s leading AI, HPC, and networking silicon teams mix best-in-class dies into a single high-performance package using both open standards (UCIe) and our own proprietary interconnect. As an Eliyan Principal / Sr. Principal Technical Program Manager, you’ll own the end-to-end execution of our IP, ASIC, and platform programs — from architecture and IP definition through design, verification, silicon bring-up, and production readiness. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with a deep bench of design, packaging, and software experts who operate from first principles and push the envelope to create high-volume, high-performance, manufacturable products. This is a high-visibility, high-ownership role at a fast-moving, early-stage company defining a new category of semiconductor technology.

ON-SITE (BAY AREA)

Key Responsibilities:

• Program Leadership: Own end-to-end execution of IP, ASIC, and platform programs, from architecture and IP definition through design, verification, validation, silicon bring-up, and production readiness.
• Plan of Record & Critical Path Management: Build and maintain an integrated program schedule spanning design, verification, DFT, physical design, packaging, and software; own the critical path and drive it to closure.
• Cross-Functional Coordination: Partner daily with digital design, design verification, DFT, physical design, analog/mixed-signal design, packaging and substrate design, PCB and platform design, silicon bring-up, firmware, and software teams to keep every workstream aligned.
• Technical Fluency: Get into the technical details of interconnect and chiplet architecture, packaging tradeoffs, and SoC-level integration — enough to ask sharp questions, unblock engineering decisions, and speak credibly with customers and partners.
• Vendor and IP Management: Manage external IP vendors and OSAT/packaging partners, holding them accountable to committed timelines, specifications, and quality.
• Customer Engagement: Serve as the primary program interface to customers, defining deliverables and ensuring seamless integration of Eliyan’s IP and silicon solutions into their products.
• Schedule and Risk Management: Define milestones, maintain a live risk register, and proactively identify and mitigate the risks most likely to move the critical path.
