US chip reshoring effort still lacks board designers
Original: The U.S. is Reshoring Chips — But It's Still Missing the Board Designers
The United States is pushing to bring semiconductor manufacturing back onshore, but the effort faces a workforce gap: too few printed circuit board designers. As fabs and packaging investments expand, the shortage of engineers who lay out the boards that connect chips into working electronics threatens to bottleneck American hardware production and supply chain independence.
Why now: Ongoing US reshoring investment has spotlighted skills gaps in the electronics workforce.
