5+ years of experience in EDA/CAD support (Level 2/3), and 2+ years of hands-on experience as an end user of ECAD tools like Cadence Allegro, Concept, or similar platforms.
Experience with Linux environments with the ability to troubleshoot system-level issues and automate workflows using scripting languages such as Python, Perl, TCL, Skill or other relevant languages.
Experience using AI tools to assist in creating code and documentation, and assisting with support cases.
Availability to work outside regular business hours and on weekends on an infrequent, as-needed basis.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience managing and administering license servers (e.g., FlexLM).
Experience providing technical support in a Windows environment within a professional engineering context.
Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git, Perforce) as applied to software and/or configuration settings.
End-to-End Design Lifecycle Knowledge: Demonstrated understanding of the end-to-end hardware product lifecycle, including ECAD design, release, and manufacturing (DFM/NPI) flows.
Effective analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to communicate complex technical concepts to stakeholders.
