About the Group:
The Technology Development Group is responsible for the research, development, and deployment of next-generation silicon and packing technologies that will enable future Intel and Foundry customer products. The Design Enablement organization is a global team which supports both technology and product development (internal and external). This includes design innovations driven through Design-Technology Co-Optimization (DTCO) to enable the technology to deliver the best Power, Performance, Area, and Cost (PPAC) for new products; the development of test vehicles that supports the technology development process and enables the development and prototyping of design IP; and the development of Process Design Kits (PDKs), the CAD representation of the technology used by designers, which are high quality and easy to use for fast time-to-market for our products. This organization is an integral part of Intel's new IDM2.0 strategy, enabling both internal and external customers on cutting-edge technologies.

About the Role:
In this role, you will direct the strategic Design Enablement technical engagements with EDA (Electronic Design Automation) suppliers. Key activities will include:
