What You Can Expect

Core EDA License Operations

• Own day-to-day EDA license server operations, ensuring high availability, performance, and reliability across global engineering teams.
• Administer, troubleshoot, and resolve complex license issues involving Flex Net/FLEXlm and vendor-specific license managers.
• Monitor real-time license usage, queues, denials, and expirations; proactively address bottlenecks and outages.
• Manage license configurations, feature mappings, and allocation policies aligned with project priorities.
• Partner with engineering teams to support critical tapeouts, regressions, and peak-demand phases.
• Coordinate with EDA vendors on license renewals, upgrades, compliance questions, and escalations.
• Support audits, true-ups, and compliance reporting, ensuring accurate usage data and traceability.
• Drive cost optimization through usage analysis, pooling strategies, and rationalization of license portfolios.
