Job Description
Role Purpose
The Technical Marketing role plays a central role in shaping the future direction of Singapores semiconductor R&D landscape. This position is responsible for synthesizing global technology signals and translating them into strategic guidance that influences where IMEs R&D investments are directed.
Operating at the intersection of industry, research, and national priorities, the role connects external market and technology needs with internal research execution. Through informed analysis and technical judgment, you will influence multi-million-dollar R&D funding decisions and help position IMEs Advanced Packaging and Silicon Photonics capabilities three to five years ahead of volume market adoption, particularly for AI Computing and data center scaling.
This role is suitable for candidates with strong technical foundations and a deep passion for semiconductor technology, with the ability to think systemically and communicate clearly across disciplines.
Key Responsibilities
Global Technology Intelligence & Synthesis
Monitor global semiconductor and system-level trends through participation in international conferences, consortia, and industry engagements, e.g. ECTC, OFC, SEMICON, OCP, and related forums.
Synthesize insights from academic research, industry roadmaps, and competitor activities into structured analyses that inform internal strategy and funding priorities.
Engage with industry partners, research collaborators, and system companies to understand emerging needs and constraints, even when these are not yet well-defined or commercially mature.
Identify early inflection points in materials, integration approaches, and system architectures that may shape future R&D directions.
Institute-Wide Roadmap & Strategy Development
Support the definition and evolution of IMEs technology roadmap by translating external signals into clear strategic themes and development priorities.
Work across multiple Technology Development (TD) departments to align research programs under a coherent, long-term vision.
Contribute to gap analyses against international benchmarks and roadmaps, helping to identify areas where new capabilities, facilities, or talent investment may be required.
Translate high-level system requirements into structured problem statements and research directions that guide R&D teams.
