The Role We are a publicly traded semiconductor company with a differentiated technology platform and a growing strategic footprint across key end markets. We’re hiring a Head of Investor Relations to lead our global IR program with the discipline, maturity, and market credibility expected of a public company—owning our narrative, our quarterly cadence, and our relationships with the investment community. This role is ideal for a seasoned IR leader who has “carried the bag”: built investor trust over time, managed disclosure risk, guided executives through high-stakes moments, and helped the Street understand performance drivers through cycles. You’ll bring rigor to our communications, elevate investor targeting and perception, and act as a strategic advisor to the CFO and CEO. This role will be in Austin, Texas, and the candidate will need to be on-site 5 days a week. What You’ll Lead & Own 1) IR Strategy & Execution Build and run a best-in-class IR function: annual plan, engagement strategy, disclosure calendar, materials, messaging architecture, investor segmentation, and KPI tracking.

Maintain tight alignment across public remarks (earnings, conferences, fireside chats, press) with a clear escalation process for sensitive topics. 3) Equity Story, Positioning & Investor Education Own the semiconductor-specific narrative: end-market demand signals, product cycles, design-win momentum, backlog/bookings context (as applicable), pricing and mix, utilization/capacity impacts, gross margin drivers, and working capital dynamics. Translate operational complexity into investor-relevant clarity—without hype, without hand-waving. Build messaging that stands up under scrutiny from long-onlys, specialists, and skeptics. 4) Investor, Analyst & Sell-Side Relationship Leadership Serve as primary point of contact for the investment community; manage day-to-day investor interactions and oversee corporate access. Strengthen and expand high-quality sell-side coverage thoughtfully; ensure analysts have the right framework to model the business accurately. Lead a data-driven investor targeting strategy and continuously improve shareholder mix over time. 5) Perception, Feedback Loops & Executive Advisory Run investor perception efforts (formal studies and informal signals), identify the “why” behind valuation gaps, and drive action plans with leadership.
