Summary of Role

Quantum Technology Solution (QTS) is the new business recently launched at GlobalFoundries to enable the Quantum industry to transition from lab-scale to Utility Scale Quantum Computing.

We are seeking a driven Product Manager to lead one of the foundation of our Quantum Technology Solution strategy – Cryogenic CMOS. This role is ideal for an experienced Product Manager with a strong background in quantum technology especially cyro-ASICs.  This role will focus on adapting the existing GF CMOS technology platform for cryogenic applications including quantum control and read-out IC ASIC devices. Creating cryo-CMOS ASIC requires cryo-PDK’s, cryo-optimized devices and cryo-qualified IP titles relevant for cryo-ASIC applications.  The cryo-CMOS offerings are qubit agnostic – they can interface to any modality required. The Product Manager will play a central role in translating the quantum systems requirements into product requirements that serves as the basis for the development cryogenic CMOS technologies.

The Product Manager for CryoCMOS is responsible for defining and commercializing GF's cryogenic semiconductor platform strategy by translating customer quantum system requirements into scalable product roadmaps, enabling technologies, ecosystem partnerships, and revenue-generating offerings that accelerate the adoption of cryogenic electronics

Essential Responsibilities

• Responsible for the growth and profitability of cryogenic-CMOS platforms for the Quantum Technology Solutions (QTS) business
• Own the product strategy, business case, and multi-year roadmap for GF's CryoCMOS platform portfolio, including Cryo-PDKs, cryogenic device models, foundational IP, cryogenic test enablement, and application-specific platform extensions.
• Define product positioning and value propositions for quantum computing, quantum networking, quantum sensing, aerospace, and other cryogenic markets.
• Establish roadmap priorities based on market requirements, customer demand signals, technology readiness, and business opportunity.
• Drive portfolio decisions across technology nodes, platform extensions, reference designs, and design enablement offerings.
• Serve as the primary business and product interface for strategic CryoCMOS customers.
• Lead deep technical engagement with quantum computing companies, system architects, cryogenic electronics teams, defense agencies, and ecosystem partners.
• Translate customer requirements into prioritized product specifications, performance targets, reliability requirements, PDK capabilities, IP needs, and development milestones.
• Lead regular roadmap reviews with customers to ensure alignment between customer scaling requirements and GF platform evolution
• Build and manage the CryoCMOS opportunity funnel from early engagement through NRE, platform adoption, MPWs, and production deployment.
