Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • As a Senior Packaging Engineer at Olix USA Inc., you will play a critical role in enabling the company’s mission to deliver next-generation AI hardware through the Optical Tensor Processing Unit (OTPU), where your expertise in advanced semiconductor packaging directly impacts the performance, scalability, and manufacturability of cutting-edge ASICs that aim to overcome the infrastructure bottleneck in AI compute.
- • You will own the end-to-end package design flow for high-performance AI hardware, translating die-level requirements into robust, manufacturable package solutions that integrate seamlessly with substrates, PCBs, and system-level architectures, ensuring electrical, thermal, and mechanical integrity from concept through production readiness.
- • You will join a mission-driven engineering team at the forefront of redefining computing infrastructure for the AI era, collaborating closely with ASIC, mechanical, thermal, and systems engineers to co-optimize package and system performance while driving innovation in 2.5D and 3D heterogeneous integration.
- • In this role, you will deepen your expertise in advanced packaging technologies, lead cross-functional design reviews and simulations, and gain ownership of critical productisation activities — positioning you as a technical leader in enabling the next wave of AI acceleration hardware.
- • Lead package architecture definition for ASIC-to-substrate integration, including bump/pad mapping, substrate escape, interconnect strategy, floorplanning, and stack-up development for 2.5D and 3D heterogeneous integration approaches.
- • Own and execute the full package design flow from concept to release, including detailed layout design in Cadence Allegro X APD or equivalent, die placement, power/ground distribution, high-speed signal breakout, and physical integration constraint management.
- • Perform and own PI/SI simulation using tools such as Ansys SIwave or Cadence Sigrity to validate signal integrity, power delivery, and package performance, translating results into design optimisations and sign-off decisions.
- • Drive package technology selection based on performance, risk, manufacturability, cost, and scalability, ensuring alignment with electrical, thermal, mechanical, reliability, and DFM/DFX requirements.
- • Collaborate with substrate vendors, OSATs, foundries, and PCB teams to support co-design, validate manufacturability, and ensure seamless handoff of design data for fabrication and assembly.
- • Support prototype bring-up, qualification, and early production by leading DFM/DFX activities, participating in root cause analysis of packaging-related issues, and reviewing substrate and manufacturing documentation for technical completeness.
🎯 Requirements
- • 8+ years of hands-on experience in advanced semiconductor packaging for ASICs or high-performance products, with deep expertise in front-end package design and ASIC-to-substrate integration.
- • Proven experience leading 2.5D and/or 3D package architecture development, including multi-die integration, chiplet interfaces, and heterogeneous integration strategies.
- • Strong proficiency with package design tools such as Cadence Allegro X APD, Siemens Xpedition, or equivalent, including layout, library development, and workflow optimisation.
- • Demonstrated capability in PI/SI simulation using tools like Ansys SIwave, Cadence Sigrity, or equivalent, with experience validating power delivery and signal integrity at the package level.
- • Experience in substrate design and package-to-board integration, including collaboration with vendors and OSATs on stack-up definition, design rules, and manufacturing readiness.
- • Proven ability to work across multidisciplinary teams (ASIC, mechanical, thermal, systems) and external partners to align package decisions with broader product requirements.
🏖️ Benefits
- • Competitive salary of £109,000+ per year, commensurate with experience and skills.
- • Meaningful equity ownership through stock options, allowing you to share in the company’s long-term success.
- • £24,000 annual Living-Local Bonus for employees residing within 20 minutes of the Bristol office to reduce commute time and enhance work-life balance.
- • Comprehensive private healthcare via BUPA, including Medical History Disregarded (MHD) coverage for medical and dental care.
- • 25 days of annual leave plus all UK bank holidays, supporting rest and recovery.
- • Provision of elite hardware, including M4 Macs with optional M4 Pro upgrades, noise-cancelling headphones, and fully ergonomic workstations.
- • Access to an in-house high-performance 3D printing lab for prototyping, experimentation, and personal projects.
- • Chef-prepared meals available for late work sessions and a caffeine tab at a local coffee shop.
- • Full UK and international visa sponsorship, with dedicated relocation support for domestic and international moves.
