Lead (ASIC) Development & Integration Engineer (m/f/d)

We are looking for an experienced Engineer (m/f/d) to lead the development, testing, and integration of advanced ASIC-based electronics for high-performance applications.

The role will be a key technical interface between internal engineering teams and external development partners, with a strong focus on ASIC testing, characterization, module integration, and technical project execution. The position can be based at either our Munich/Heimstetten site in Germany or our Delft site in the Netherlands, depending on the candidate.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead ASIC development activities across requirements, solution alternatives, engagement with design and integration partners, and execution planning, including testing, qualification, and system integration.
• Act as the technical interface to ASIC design partners, coordinating requirements, design reviews, technical decisions, risks, and deliverables.
• Define and drive ASIC test, characterization, silicon bring-up, and debugging activities.
• Lead integration of ASICs into advanced electronic and MEMS modules, including flip-chip assembly, interposers, and associated electrical and mechanical interfaces.
• Define test hardware, setups, automated measurements, and data analysis for device and module characterization.
• Coordinate development plans, technical risks, and interfaces across internal teams and external partners.
• Drive technical issues to resolution and support transition to robust, manufacturable solutions.

Qualifications

• Degree in electrical engineering, electronics, physics, or a related field.
• Strong experience in electronic hardware development and testing.
• Experience with ASIC/IC testing, characterization, validation, or silicon bring-up.
• Good understanding of ASIC development and the ability to work effectively with ASIC designers and external design houses.
• Experience with advanced electronic packaging or module integration, such as flip-chip, interposers, MEMS integration, or similar technologies, is highly desirable.
• Knowledge of analog/mixed-signal electronics, measurement techniques, and laboratory test equipment.
• Strong hands-on debugging, problem-solving, and data-analysis skills.
• Experience leading complex technical projects involving multiple disciplines and external partners.
• Direct ASIC design experience is a plus, but not required.
