We Are
Synopsys is the leader in engineering solutions from silicon to systems, enabling customers to rapidly innovate AI-powered products. We deliver industry-leading silicon design, IP, simulation and analysis solutions, and design services. We partner closely with our customers across a wide range of industries to maximize their R&D capability and productivity, powering innovation today that ignites the ingenuity of tomorrow.
You Are
You have spent a decade or more building, integrating, or supporting complex SoC architectures, and somewhere along the way you realized that the most interesting problems are not just technical, they are also about understanding what a customer is actually trying to build and why their current approach will not get them there. You think in systems, not just components. When someone describes an HPC roadmap or a next-generation AI accelerator, you are already mapping out the subsystem architecture, the protocol stack, the power envelope, and the three places where things will break if they are not careful.
You are comfortable in a lab with a high-speed scope debugging signal integrity issues on a customer board, and equally comfortable in a conference room translating those findings into a design recommendation that makes sense to an SoC lead who has fifteen other problems to solve that week. You do not just answer questions, you ask better ones. You push back when a requirement does not make sense, and you do it in a way that builds trust instead of friction.
At Synopsys, you will work directly with the teams building the most advanced chips in the world, and what you architect will show up in silicon that powers everything from data centers to autonomous vehicles.
What You'll Be Doing
Engage directly with customer architects and SoC leads at top-tier HPC and AI companies to gather system requirements, understand design constraints, and translate them into IP integration solutions that actually solve their problems
Architect subsystems that integrate Synopsys IP blocks including UCIe, PCIe, Ethernet, HBM, and LPDDR into customer SoCs, specifying interfaces, performance targets, and implementation strategies
Drive customer success across the full lifecycle from IP evaluation and kickoff through integration, tape-out, and silicon bring-up, acting as the technical anchor when things get complicated
Develop technical collateral including architecture diagrams, design specifications, application notes, and white papers that help the presales team win designs and help customers implement successfully
Analyze customer target markets and design requirements, prioritize feedback, and work directly with Product Management and Design Engineering to influence the next generation of Synopsys IP roadmaps
Travel approximately 15 to 30 percent to customer sites, sales offices, and engineering centers to support evaluations, design reviews, and technical escalations
Provide technical training to field application engineers and key customers on IP products, integration best practices, and system-level design considerations
The Impact You Will Have
You will directly influence which designs Synopsys wins by translating deep technical understanding into solutions that differentiate our IP in competitive evaluations
Your architectural guidance will shape how customers build their next-generation SoCs, ensuring they get the performance, power, and area outcomes they need to succeed in their markets
You will define what gets built next by feeding real customer requirements and market insights back into the IP roadmap, ensuring Synopsys stays ahead of where the industry is going
Your technical collateral and training will scale your expertise across the field organization, enabling FAEs and customers to move faster and with more confidence
You will be the reason a customer chooses Synopsys IP over the competition, and the reason they come back for the next project
Your work will show up in production silicon that…
