Brian Marshall

As the Director of EDA Engineering, I lead a global organization responsible for advancing enterprise-wide electronic design automation capabilities for complex semiconductor products. My focus is on defining strategy, building high-performing teams, and delivering integrated, production-ready design flows that enable predictable execution and sustained innovation. Key Highlights: • Global Team Leadership: Leading and mentoring diverse, worldwide teams, fostering a collaborative, high-performance culture that delivers reliable, scalable EDA solutions. • End-to-End Design Flow Development: Architecting and deploying standardized design flows for digital, analog, RF, and mixed-signal design, ensuring consistency and efficiency from concept through tape-out. • Strategic EDA Development: Defining and executing EDA roadmaps aligned with business objectives, integrating advanced methodologies and automation to improve productivity and reduce cycle time. • Tape-Out Automation & Enablement: Leading a specialized team providing comprehensive tape-out services—from tape-in through mask ordering—improving first-pass success and execution predictability. • Vendor Management & Negotiation: Owning strategic EDA vendor relationships, applying strong negotiation skills to secure favorable commercial terms, maximize tool value, and foster long-term, trusted partnerships. • Technology Breadth: Extensive experience across Silicon, GaAs, GaN, and Acoustic (BAW/SAW) technologies, supporting high-performance and RF-centric semiconductor applications. • Continuous Improvement: Driving best practices and metrics-based execution that increase team productivity and reduce design cycle time. I am passionate about building world-class EDA capabilities that empower design teams, scale with the business, and push the boundaries of semiconductor innovation.
