You Are

You have spent years in the trenches of ASIC verification, and somewhere along the way you realized that emulation is not just another tool in the flow, it is the thing that makes or breaks your ability to ship complex IP on time. You know PCIe or DDR inside and out, not just the spec but the weird corner cases, the errata that nobody talks about, and the places where emulation models fall short of what the design team actually needs.

You have worked on Zebu or similar platforms long enough to know what good emulation IP looks like and what happens when it is not quite right. You have closed that gap before, probably more than once, and you know how to do it without creating chaos for the teams depending on your work. You are comfortable sitting with a design team in Bangalore, a verification lead in California, and an IP product manager in Europe, and walking out with a plan that everyone believes in.

You do not wait for perfect alignment. You ask the right questions, you push back when something does not make sense, and you move. At Synopsys, you will work on IP that powers the next generation of silicon, and the emulation strategies you define will directly affect how fast we get there.

What You'll Be Doing

Bridge the gap between Emulation IP capabilities and Design IP verification needs across both Controller and PHY domains for high speed interfaces like PCIe and DDR

Define technical requirements for Emulation IP, working directly with IP development and verification teams to ensure correct implementation and deployment on Zebu platforms

Track and report key metrics on Emulation IP quality, performance, and coverage, driving continuous improvement across verification workflows

Stay ahead of evolving PCIe and DDR standards, interpret specification updates, ECNs, and errata, and translate those into actionable changes for both Emulation and Design IP teams

Review and validate test plans for Emulation IP and Design IP, ensuring completeness, traceability, and alignment with product quality goals

Collaborate cross-functionally with verification, design, product, and platform teams to optimize emulation methodologies and standardize best practices

Mentor engineers on emulation strategies, verification techniques, and IP development workflows

The Impact You Will Have

Accelerate time to market for high performance IP by defining emulation strategies that catch issues earlier and reduce silicon respins

Elevate product quality across Synopsys IP portfolios by ensuring Emulation IP meets the real needs of design and verification teams

Drive adoption of best in class emulation and verification methodologies that become standard practice across the organization

Influence the next generation of emulation solutions and workflows, positioning Synopsys as a leader in pre-silicon validation

Improve cross-functional collaboration and alignment between geographically distributed teams, reducing friction and rework

Standardize verification workflows and metrics, making it easier for teams to track progress, identify gaps, and deliver with confidence

Shape how Synopsys develops and deploys Emulation IP for cutting edge digital designs and system architectures

What You'll Need

15+ years of hands-on experience in emulation, pre-silicon verification, or IP product development

Expert-level knowledge of PCIe or DDR interfaces, including protocol details, verification strategies, and real-world implementation challenges

Extensive experience with Zebu or similar emulation platforms, specifically for IP verification and system-level validation

Proven track record leading IP product development initiatives with a strong focus on emulation and verification

Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally in matrixed, global teams and drive consensus across diverse stakeholders

Strong communication skills with the ability to influence technical direction and inspire change across engineering teams

Comfort working in dynamic, ambiguous environments where requirements evolve and priorities shift

Who You Are

You can walk into a room where the Emulation IP does not quite match what the design team needs and walk out with a concrete plan to close the gap without derailing either team's schedule

You do not need someone to tell you what the next version of the PCIe or DDR spec means for your work, you read it, figure out the implications, and start the conversation with your team

You are the person people come to when emulation results do not make sense, and you know how to debug across the boundary between emulation models, RTL, and test environments

You push back when a test plan looks complete on paper but is missing coverage for the cases that actually matter in production

You are comfortable mentoring engineers who are newer to emulation or IP verification, and you do it in a way that builds their confidence and capability

You stay organized across multiple workstreams, stakeholders, and time zones without losing track of what matters most
