We lead in chip design, verification, and IP integration, empowering the creation of high-performance silicon chips and software content. Join us to transform the future through continuous technological innovation.

You Are

You are a driven and insightful Emulation Expert, passionate about pushing the boundaries of what's possible in ASIC digital design. With a deep understanding of IP interfaces especially PCIe and DDR you are skilled in leveraging advanced emulation platforms like Zebu to accelerate verification and product development. Your career is marked by a proven ability to deliver robust, production‑ready IP through rigorous emulation and verification cycles. You thrive in highly collaborative, matrixed, and international environments, bringing together diverse teams and perspectives to solve complex challenges. Your hands‑on approach and proactive attitude make you a go‑to resource for bridging gaps between Emulation IP and Design IP, ensuring seamless integration and verification of both Controller and PHY components. You have a keen eye for detail and are committed to right‑first‑time development, always ensuring traceability and completeness across verification requirements. You stay ahead of industry trends, standards, and evolving technologies, and are adept at translating these into actionable insights for your teams. As an excellent communicator and natural collaborator, you are comfortable working with multiple stakeholders and driving change within the organization. Your adaptability, resilience, and commitment to continuous learning set you apart as a leader in your field.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Bridging and closing gaps between the available or required Emulation IP feature set and the Design IP verification for all functions, spanning both Controller and PHY domains.
  • Reporting key metrics and driving continuous improvement initiatives in Emulation IP quality and performance.
  • Providing technical leadership and expertise to define requirements for Emulation IP, ensuring its correct implementation and deployment within verification strategies.
  • Staying ahead of evolving industry standards, interpreting future changes, ECNs, and specification errata, and integrating this knowledge into Emulation and Design IP teams.
  • Reviewing and validating test plans for both Emulation IP and Design IP, guaranteeing best‑in‑class function, feature coverage, and product quality.
  • Collaborating cross‑functionally to optimize workflows, standardize methodologies, and ensure compliance with organizational goals.
  • Mentoring and guiding junior engineers, fostering a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.

The Impact You Will Have

  • Enhancing cross‑functional collaboration to elevate product quality and end‑customer satisfaction.
  • Transforming the approach to Emulation IP usage in validating cutting‑edge digital designs and system architectures.
  • Driving innovation by defining and refining requirements for IP product development, particularly in emulation contexts.
  • Championing the adoption of best‑in‑class verification methodologies across the organization.
  • Standardizing and optimizing verification workflows to boost efficiency, traceability, and compliance.
  • Influencing the next generation of emulation and verification solutions, positioning Synopsys as an industry leader.
  • Accelerating time‑to‑market for high‑performance silicon solutions through advanced emulation strategies.
  • What You'll Need

  • 8+ years of relevant experience in emulation, verification, or IP product development.
  • Expert‑level knowledge of PCIe or DDR interfaces, including protocol and verification strategies.
  • Extensive hands‑on experience with Zebu or similar emulation platforms, particularly for IP verification.
  • Demonstrated track record in leading IP product development initiatives with a focus on emulation.
  • Strong background in cross‑functional collaboration, with an ability to drive consensus and deliver results.
  • Outstanding communication skills, with the ability to influence and inspire change across diverse teams.
  • Adaptability and comfort working in a fast‑paced, matrixed, and international environment.
  • Who You Are

  • A proactive and collaborative problem‑solver with a passion for excellence.
  • Innovative thinker who embraces change and seeks out opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Strong communicator, able to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
  • Resilient and adaptable, thriving in dynamic environments and embracing new challenges.
  • Committed to mentoring others and fostering an inclusive, team‑oriented culture.
  • The Team You'll Be a Part Of

    You will join a dynamic, high‑performing engineering team focused on IP development, emulation, and verification at the forefront of semiconductor innovation. Our team is collaborative, cross‑functional, and globally distributed, working together to solve complex challenges and deliver industry‑leading solutions. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with experts across multiple domains, drive impactful initiatives, and shape the future of digital design and verification at Synopsys.
