Hiring semiconductor engineers in the United States.
A pillar guide to permanent, direct-hire recruitment across chip design, verification, fab operations, packaging, and test.
The U.S. semiconductor talent market is uniquely tight: fab capacity is expanding faster than the specialist workforce, and the engineers who matter most rarely reach open job boards. Mindpool USA runs permanent, direct-hire recruitment across the full silicon stack — RTL and physical design, verification, analog and mixed-signal, packaging, test, and fab operations — with recruiters who understand nodes, tape-out schedules, and yield-improvement cycles.
Chip design and verification
RTL, ASIC, SoC, analog, mixed-signal, and RFIC engineers; design verification, formal verification, and emulation specialists.
Physical design and backend
Physical design, place-and-route, timing closure, DFT, and signoff engineers for leading-edge nodes.
Fab operations and process
Process integration, lithography, etch, deposition, CMP, metrology, yield, and equipment engineering.
Advanced packaging and test
2.5D / 3D packaging, CoWoS, fan-out, substrate technology, silicon bring-up, characterization, and PVT qualification.
