US Chip Reshoring Still Lacks Board Design Talent

Original: The U.S. is Reshoring Chips — But It's Still Missing the Board Designers

The U.S. is pushing to bring semiconductor manufacturing back home, but Electronic Design reports the effort is overlooking a critical piece of the supply chain: board designers. While billions are being invested in fabs and chip production, the domestic workforce needed to design the printed circuit boards that turn chips into working electronics is shrinking, leaving a skills gap in American electronics manufacturing.

Why now: Ongoing U.S. push to reshore semiconductor manufacturing has highlighted workforce shortages, and this piece points to a rarely discussed gap in board design skills.
