IC Package Design & Automation Engineer

IC Package Design & Automation Engineer NOKIA $125,270 to $232,650 •Plus, potential incentive/variable compensation for eligible roles. Apr 09, 2026 The successful candidate will design and validate highspeed packages through EM simulation, signal/power integrity analysis, and correlation with lab test & measurement verification. In addition, you will develop and maintain ADKs across multiple EDA platforms, including rule decks, parameterized cells, technology files, and automated verification flows. Design, Modeling, and Verification Perform highspeed package design for advanced heterogenous packages (e.g., SiP, FCBGA, 2.5D/3D, chiplets) for high-speed RF and Optoelectronics. Build and refine 3D EM models of package structures (transmission lines, interconnect and EM passives, etc.). Run and interpret EM, SI, and PI simulations (Sparameters, TDR/TDT, eye diagrams, crosstalk, impedance, PDN impedance). Define and validate routing topologies and stackups to meet timing, loss, crosstalk, and impedance requirements. Collaborate with silicon, board, and system teams to cooptimize package, die, and PCB for endtoend performance. Correlate simulation results with lab measurements (VNA, TDR, highspeed scopes) for model validation and signoff.

ADK, EDA

Flows, and Automation Develop and maintain Assembly Design Kits (ADKs) for package design across multiple EDA tools and foundry/OSAT technologies. Create and validate technology files, layer stacks, material properties, and design rule sets for package implementation. Develop DRC/LVS/validity rule decks for package layouts and ensure consistency across tools and process nodes. Build parameterized cells (PCells) and reusable library components for common package elements (vias, bumps, pads, RDLs, etc.). Implement scripted flows (e.g., Python, AEL, SKILL, etc.) to automate design entry, simulation setup, and verification. Integrate version control, configuration management, and documentation for ADKs and EDA flows.
