Supply Chain/Post-Silicon Program Manager (Mixed-Signal SoC IC Manufacturing)

MDA Space

Farnborough, United Kingdom

We are seeking a highly organized and technically adept Supply Chain / Post-Silicon Program Manager to drive the successful manufacturing, packaging, and qualification of our next-generation mixed-signal integrated circuits. This role sits at the intersection of operations, R&D, and subcontractor management, ensuring that chips are delivered on time, tested thoroughly, and meet performance and reliability requirements and based in our Farnborough UK location.

Key Responsibilities

Manufacturing & Supply Chain Coordination

• Manage relationships with subcontractors for wafer fabrication, packaging, and final assembly;
• Oversee schedules, logistics, and material flows to ensure on-time delivery of prototypes and production parts;
• Track and mitigate risks in the supply chain, proactively resolving bottlenecks.

Post-Silicon Program Management

• Lead execution of characterization and qualification activities across silicon lots;
• Define and monitor test plans (functional, parametric, and reliability) to validate chip performance;
• Ensure adherence to industry standards and customer requirements.

Cross-Functional R&D Collaboration

• Partner with SW, DFT, and Analog design teams to define test vectors and productization strategies;
• Drive alignment between design intent and test execution;
• Facilitate feedback loops from silicon characterization to design teams for yield and performance improvements.

Program Planning & Tracking

• Use project management tools (e.g., Jira, MS Project) to track schedules, dependencies, and deliverables;
• Develop and maintain dashboards for program status, risks, and KPI's;
• Enable transparent communication and alignment across internal teams and external partners.

Quality & Compliance

• Ensure reliability testing and qualification (e.g., HTOL, ESD, latch-up, package stress, irradiation campaigns) are executed per standards;
• Track and report program health, key milestones, and risks to stakeholders.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field; MBA a plus;
• 5+ years of experience in IC manufacturing, supply chain, or post-silicon program management;
• Strong knowledge of mixed-signal IC flows including DFT, characterization, and qualification;
• Proven ability to work with subcontractors and foundries in a fast-paced environment;
• Hands-on experience with planning and program management tools (e.g., Jira, MS Project, or equivalent);
• Exceptional organizational and communication skills; able to interface effectively with both technical teams and suppliers.
