FAQ
Questions we often hear
Engagement models, talent, security and getting started. If your question isn't here, ask us in a scoping session.
Engagement models
What engagement models does Bridgz offer?
Three models: client-managed teams, where our engineers work under your technical direction; Bridgz-managed services, where a Bridgz technical manager leads a defined scope; and dedicated ASIC engineering centers, a dedicated team and operating base for your programs.
How do we choose the right model?
It depends on how much day-to-day direction you want to keep, how well defined the scope is, and how long you need the capacity. In the scoping session we look at your program and recommend a model, or a combination.
Can we combine models?
Yes. Models can be combined across disciplines, locations and program stages. For example, embedded specialists in verification and a Bridgz-managed scope in physical design.
Can we start small and scale later?
Yes. Many engagements start with a few specialists and grow as the program moves forward. You can also move from one model to another as your needs change.
Who leads the engineers technically?
In client-managed teams, your leads do. In Bridgz-managed services, a Bridgz technical manager leads execution and reports to your stakeholders. In a dedicated center, your program leadership sets direction and Bridgz provides site and technical leadership.
Do you work beyond silicon?
Yes. We also support software development, RT-embedded, validation and emulation, AI and ML, and DevOps around your silicon programs and products.
Dedicated ASIC centers
How large does a dedicated center need to be?
We size the center around your programs during the Define stage, and it can grow as programs are added. [Typical starting size to be confirmed by Bridgz.]
Can we hire the engineers directly later?
This can be part of the arrangement. You can continue with Bridgz, or agree direct hire of engineers by you, under an agreed agreement and structure.
Can a center combine with other Bridgz models?
Yes. A dedicated center can work alongside client-managed specialists or a managed scope in other disciplines or locations.
Engineers & talent
How experienced are your engineers?
We present experienced specialists matched to your profile. Each candidate's background is shared with you before selection.
How do you select candidates?
We screen technically against the profile you define, then present candidates to your team. You take part in the final selection.
What happens if an engineer leaves?
Continuity is planned from the start, with knowledge sharing, documentation and replacement planning agreed with you.
Where are the engineers located?
Across our delivery network in Haifa, Ramallah, Amman, Cairo, Sofia, Romania and Dubai. The delivery structure and permitted locations are confirmed for each engagement.
IP, security & legal
How are IP and security handled?
IP ownership, security requirements, NDAs, permitted locations and escalation paths are agreed with you before launch and reflected in the engagement terms.
Do engineers work in our environment and tools?
Usually yes. Access to your environment, tools and data is set up according to the security requirements you define.
Who employs the engineers?
Bridgz handles recruitment, employment and HR, so you don't need to set up local entities or payroll.
Getting started
What happens in a scoping session?
We discuss your program, the disciplines you need, your preferred way of working and your timeline. You leave with a clear view of the options.
What does the proposal include?
A recommended team model and structure, profiles, governance, and a launch plan with review points.
How long does setup take?
It depends on scope, disciplines and location. Our illustrative 90-day launch path shows a typical sequence; the actual plan is agreed with you during scoping.
Bridgz Academy
What is Bridgz Academy?
The education and skill-development arm of Bridgz. It works with leading IT universities and is taught by industry experts, preparing engineers for advanced semiconductor and software roles.
Can the Academy train engineers for our program?
