Director Communication, Network, and Interfaces (f/m/div)

Shape the future of cutting-edge technology as the Director of Communication, Network, and Interfaces (CNI) at Infineon! In this dynamic leadership role, you will drive the definition and architecture of CNI components, ensuring seamless interoperability and optimal performance. Partnering with software teams, you\’ll balance hardware-software integration, lead predevelopment to optimize trade-offs between performance and cost, and oversee IP roadmaps, including make-vs-buy decisions. By defining architectural requirements and strategizing to meet power, performance, and area targets, you will play a key role in delivering innovative and efficient solutions that set new industry benchmarks. Step into a position where your expertise shapes tomorrow’s technologies!

In your new role, you will:

• Be the lead for Platform Architecture Communication, Network, and Interfaces (CNI) components
• Define the architectural CNI components, their interoperability internal architecture of each component
• Collaborate with software teams to secure the correct software/hardware split for architectural components
• Take care of predevelopment on the platform level to ensure implementation ability and correct trade-off between performance and cost
• Be responsible for deriving all information for IP handling from the platform and overseeing the platform IP roadmap, including make vs. buy decisions for IP
• Be responsible for the definition of the architectural CNI component requirements and platform specification for each architectural component
• Be in charge that power, performance, and area targets are met and ensure the best-cost-feature split for the products
• Break down stakeholder requirements and application assumptions into block-based requirements for architectural compute components

As a Director Communication, Network, and Interfaces, you commit yourself to the results of your own team and the company as a whole. Furthermore, you remain aware of the big picture even in complex situations and make decisions despite uncertain circumstances. Lastly, you recognize potential obstacles in time and use them as good opportunity for further improvement.
