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 years in the verification trenches, debugging mismatches and building flows that hold up when the design scales. The difference between a verification environment that catches bugs and one that creates them is something you feel in your bones, and you have learned to spot the weak points before they become customer escalations. You are equally comfortable sitting with an R&D team discussing simulator architecture and walking a customer through a UVM testbench issue that is blocking their tape out.

When a customer says 'it worked yesterday,' you do not panic. You ask three clarifying questions, pull logs, and usually find the answer in the delta between tool versions or an edge case no one thought to test. You think in terms of deployment success, not just feature lists. A tool is only as good as the customer's ability to use it, and you take ownership of that entire arc.

You do not wait for perfect documentation. You read code, you experiment, you build proof of concepts, and you bring solutions that work. At Synopsys, you will work on VCS deployments that directly affect whether chips tape out on schedule, and you will have the technical depth and customer access to make that difference real.

What You'll Be Doing

Lead VCS simulation deployments at customer sites, working directly with design and verification teams to integrate the tool into their existing flows and resolve adoption blockers

Diagnose complex simulation mismatches, performance bottlenecks, and verification environment issues using VCS, Verdi, and related debugging infrastructure

Partner with field application engineers and R&D to translate customer pain points into actionable product requirements and validate fixes in real customer environments

Drive competitive evaluations and benchmarking engagements, demonstrating VCS capabilities and building the technical case for adoption

Develop automation scripts in Perl, TCL, Shell, and Make to streamline customer workflows, improve simulation throughput, and reduce manual intervention

Interface with product validation and R&D teams to propose improvements in simulation accuracy, performance, and usability based on field feedback

Support customers using advanced verification methodologies including UVM, SVA, low-power simulation, gate-level verification, and functional safety flows

The Impact You Will Have

Directly enable customer tape outs by resolving critical verification blockers that would otherwise delay silicon schedules by weeks or months

Shape the VCS product roadmap by surfacing real-world deployment challenges and competitive gaps that R&D would not see from internal testing alone

Accelerate verification cycles for customers by introducing AI-driven productivity features, advanced debugging techniques, and optimized simulation configurations

Strengthen Synopsys' competitive position in the simulation market by winning head-to-head benchmarks and converting evaluations into long-term deployments

Improve product quality and robustness by identifying edge cases, usability issues, and integration gaps during customer engagements

Build deep technical relationships with leading semiconductor companies, becoming the trusted advisor they call when verification gets hard

Contribute to the success of chips powering AI, automotive, mobile, and data center applications by ensuring verification infrastructure does not become the bottleneck

What You'll Need

Bachelor's in Electronics or Computer Engineering with 5+ years of experience, or Master's with 3+ years, focused on digital design verification

Deep hands-on experience with simulation technologies, including VCS or equivalent commercial simulators, and strong understanding of event-driven simulation internals

Proficiency in SystemVerilog, UVM, SVA, and HDL languages like Verilog and VHDL, with the ability to read and debug complex testbenches and RTL

Proven track record debugging simulation mismatches, performance issues, and verification flow problems in production customer environments

Strong scripting skills in Perl, TCL, Shell, and Make, with the ability to automate workflows and build tooling that improves engineer productivity

Working knowledge of UNIX/Linux environments, version control systems, and large-scale verification infrastructure

Experience with Synopsys tools like Verdi, exposure to low-power simulation, gate-level verification, and functional safety methodologies is a strong plus

Who You Are

You can walk into a customer war room, quickly assess a broken verification flow, and explain the root cause and fix in terms that make sense to both the engineer debugging it and the manager who needs to know when the schedule recovers

Comfortable working across time zones with global R&D teams in India, Europe, and the U.S., balancing multiple customer escalations without losing track of the details that matter

You do not need to be the loudest person in the room, but you have a point of view and you push back when a proposed solution does not match the actual problem

Organized enough to manage five customer deployments, two competitive evaluations, and an R&D collaboration without dropping threads or missing follow-ups

You are genuinely curious about how things work under the hood, whether that is a simulator's scheduling algorithm or a customer's custom verification methodology, and that curiosity makes you better at solving problems
