Dr. Sivaram most recently was the Chief Operating Officer of Matrix
Semiconductor, bringing to Matrix unrivaled experience in running a
high-volume semiconductor manufacturing business. After receiving his
Ph.D. from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Dr. Sivaram began a
14-year career at Intel, where he ended up serving as General Manager
of the billion-dollar IC Procurement and Enabling Division, responsible
for portions of Intel's chipset design, all external integrated circuit
procurement, and production of Intel chips which were not manufactured
in Intel fabs. In that position, Dr. Sivaram was known worldwide as the
world's largest consumer of semiconductor foundry wafers. Dr. Sivaram
authored the book Chemical Vapor Deposition: Thermal and Plasma
Deposition of Electronic Materials (Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1995) that
is used at many U.S. universities at the graduate level. He has
published over fifty technical papers and also held positions as
Research Scholar at Matsushita Electric in Japan, Technologist at
SEMATECH, and Adjunct Faculty at San Jose State University.
