Position Overview We are seeking a highly experienced Advanced Package Engineer to lead system module packaging and advanced single chip Flip Chip IC integration for next-generation high-performance networking and compute platforms.

This role owns the end-to-end productization of composite system modules assembly, driving manufacturing readiness and product implementation consisting of organic interposers, organic substrates, cooling solutions, boards, and mechanical hardware. You will architect and deliver complete module packaging assembly solutions. This role also owns leading flip-chip single-die Flip Chip packages and advanced 2.5D integration.

You will operate as the technical owner of system module packaging, working hands-on with contract manufacturers, substrate vendors, OSATs, foundry partners, and internal silicon/system teams to translate ambitious architectures into high-volume, production-ready products.

This is a highly visible technical leadership role for an engineer who thrives at the intersection of system architecture, packaging design, mechanical modeling, manufacturing, and qualification.

Responsibilities System Module Packaging & Manufacturing Lead Own The Full Lifecycle Of System Module Packaging Assembly Integration From Architecture Through Volume Production Consisting Of Organic Interposers, Organic Substrates, Cooling Solutions, Boards, And Mechanical Hardware

Organic Substrate and Board Manufacturing Technical Lead Act as technical owner for organic substrate readiness and embedded component integration:

Drive implementation of embedded component technologies.
Own substrate BOM development and engineering builds.
Define coplanarity plans and acceptance criteria.
Coordinate substrate and board electrical and mechanical design and signoff.
Lead manufacturing, tooling cycle time optimization, yield learning, and qualification strategies.
Monitor product impedance and drive failure analysis on electrical excursions.
Monitor prototype and production yields.
Lead design rule alignment, cost tradeoffs, material selection, electrical and mechanical simulations, and reliability assessments.

Advanced Packaging Architecture Lead Provide Technical Leadership Across Emerging Packaging Domains

Qualifications

What Makes This Role Unique

Direct ownership of real system products entering manufacturing — not just concept designs.
Technical leadership across substrates → SMT → system modules → advanced IC packaging.
Opportunity to architect next-generation system module platforms.
High visibility across silicon, system, and manufacturing organizations.
Deep engagement with leading global manufacturing partners.
A chance to solve packaging challenges at true system scale.

Why Join Us? At Eridu, you’ll have the opportunity to shape the future of AI infrastructure, working with a world-class team on groundbreaking technology that pushes the boundaries of AI performance. Your contributions will directly impact the next generation of AI infrastructure solutions, transforming the performance of AI data centers.

The starting base salary for the selected candidate will be established based on their relevant skills, experience, qualifications, work location, market trends, and the compensation of employees in comparable roles.
