Job Description

You Are:

You are a dynamic, forward-thinking technical leader who thrives at the intersection of advanced verification technology and customer success. With a passion for solving complex SoC challenges, you possess deep protocol expertise and hands-on experience deploying Verification IP (VIP) solutions in high-impact environments. You are motivated by strategic influence, eager to shape both customer outcomes and Synopsys roadmap through meaningful partnership and feedback. Your ability to communicate and collaborate across diverse teams sets you apart, as does your drive to deliver results that exceed expectations. You're comfortable leading technical engagements, mentoring peers, and representing Synopsys in high-profile forums. Your approach is inclusive and adaptable, always seeking to learn from others and share your knowledge. You understand the importance of aligning technical rigor with business objectives, and you excel at translating customer needs into actionable solutions. You are detail-oriented, proactive, and resilient in the face of challenging debug scenarios, always striving for excellence and innovation. Above all, you are committed to empowering customers and colleagues to achieve breakthrough results in verification and design.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Lead the integration and deployment of Synopsys Verification IP at strategic semiconductor accounts, driving seamless adoption in simulation, emulation, and hybrid environments.
  • Own evaluation cycles, competitive displacements, and first bring-up engagements, ensuring customer success throughout the process.
  • Define end-to-end verification strategies for complex SoCs, focusing on coherency, interconnect behavior, performance validation, and subsystem-level flows.
  • Provide architectural guidance on VIP and IP flows, including Arm-based architectures and advanced protocols (PCIe/CXL, DDR/LP, UFS/USB).
  • Serve as the expert escalation point for complex system-level debug issues, coordinating cross-functional teams (AE, PMG, R&D) to resolve challenges.
  • Develop and maintain reusable collateral such as test suites, protocol compliance documents, debug guides, and integration documentation aligned with industry standards and customer expectations.
  • Partner with R&D, PMG, and Sales to drive feature delivery, roadmap planning, bug triage, and methodology improvements.
  • Deliver customer workshops, deep-dive technical sessions, and internal enablement programs, representing Synopsys at conferences and protocol working groups as needed.

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Accelerate deployment and adoption of Synopsys Verification IP, directly contributing to customer project success and market leadership.
  • Shape the VIP product roadmap by providing actionable feedback from strategic accounts and complex use cases.
  • Enhance verification methodologies at customer sites, improving robustness, coverage, and performance outcomes.
  • Increase customer satisfaction and retention through expert technical support and proactive engagement.
  • Drive competitive displacement by showcasing Synopsys technical advantages and delivering superior solutions.
  • Empower cross-functional teams to innovate and deliver features that meet evolving industry needs.
  • Strengthen Synopsys reputation as a thought leader through contributions to protocol working groups, technical workshops, and industry forums.

What You'll Need:

  • Expertise in UVM, SystemVerilog, and VIP development/integration in simulation and emulation environments.
  • Deep understanding of advanced protocol standards, including PCIe/CXL, DDR/LP, UFS/USB, and related interconnects.
  • Hands-on proficiency with debug tools (e.g., Verdi), performance analysis, and coverage closure methodologies.
  • Strong programming skills in SystemVerilog, UVM, Verilog, C/C++, and Python.
  • Experience with industry-standard tools such as VCS, Verdi, Specman, and Jira.
  • Familiarity with subsystem verification, native UVM/SV flows, and protocol compliance strategies.

Who You Are:

  • Exceptional customer-facing skills, including technical presentations, workshop facilitation, and conflict resolution.
  • Influential communicator able to guide senior customer and internal teams toward consensus and action.
  • Proactive collaborator who thrives in cross-functional environments and builds strong partnerships.
  • Detail-oriented problem solver with a passion for technical excellence and continuous improvement.
  • Adaptable and resilient, able to manage multiple priorities and drive results in fast-paced settings.
  • Committed to diversity, inclusion, and mentoring others for collective success.

The Team You'll Be A Part Of:

You'll join a highly skilled and collaborative Customer Application Services team focused on delivering innovative verification solutions to leading semiconductor companies. The team combines protocol expertise, strategic engagement, and technical leadership to drive customer success and influence Synopsys product direction. You'll work alongside passionate professionals who value knowledge sharing, inclusivity, and pushing the boundaries of verification technology.

Rewards and Benefits:

We offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs. Our total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings. Your recruiter will provide more details about the salary range and benefits during the hiring process.
