Lead end-to-end commercial negotiations for third-party semiconductor IP cores (foundation, interface, processor), EDA software licenses, verification IP (VIP), and emulation/prototyping solutions—from RFP/RFQ and commercial modeling through redlining and execution. Partner with Silicon Engineering leads, CAD/Infrastructure teams, and TPMs to translate chip roadmaps and project ramp schedules into EDA token and IP entitlement forecasts.
Analyze utilization telemetry to optimize pool sizing, remix flexibility, and cloud-burst economics. Manage the end-to-end contract and entitlement lifecycle. Serve as the primary commercial point of contact for assigned IP and EDA vendors. Lead QBRs, track supplier performance against SLAs and delivery schedules, manage commercial escalations, and benchmark pricing and licensing terms against industry standards. Collaborate with Finance and Engineering leadership on AOP budgeting, long-range financial planning, and cost-per-project attribution.
Build repeatable sourcing playbooks and licensing governance workflows.
