Descriptions & Requirements

Job Description and Requirements
The broad DesignWare IP portfolio includes logic libraries, embedded memories, embedded test, analog IP, interface IP, security IP, embedded processors, and subsystems. To accelerate prototyping, software development and integration of IP into SoCs, Synopsys' IP Accelerated initiative offers IP Prototyping Kits and IP subsystems. Our extensive investment in IP quality, comprehensive technical support and robust IP development methodology enables designers to reduce integration risk and accelerate time-to-market. At Synopsys, you will have the opportunity to find the perfect blend of our exceptional EDA presence and our broad IP portfolio.
 
Our Solution IP group is ramping up high-performance computing (HPC) demand, therefore we are looking for an enthusiastic applicant to join our team. You will be working with a cross functional team of analog and mixed signal circuit designers from a wide variety of backgrounds on design and methodology. This position requires hands on experience with transistor level simulations, reliability analysis, static timing analysis (STA) tools, a vast knowledge of mixed signal circuit design principles, a deep understanding of silicon IP release requirements, strong scripting skills to automate flows and the ability to lead and train junior engineers to become experts with new methodologies.
 
Key Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or similar technical field
  • BSEE degree and 12-15 years of experience in IC design, or MSEE (or PhD) with 10-12 years of experience.
  • Extensive programming skills in languages such as Python, Perl, TCL and C/C++
  • Ability to provide automation​ for rapid and dynamic design needs is highly sought-after
  • Extensive knowledge of Analog & Mixed-Signal circuit design
  • Design experience in high speed PHY such as DDR, HBM or SERDES
  • Proficiency with spice simulators including HSPICE, Finesim and XA
  • Deep knowledge on DC/AC/Transient, Cross corners PVT, Static & Dynamic CCK, Equivalency checks, Aging, EMIR/SHE Reliability analysis, MonteCarlo simulations
  • Experience with STA and cell characterization such as Nanotime, Primetime, SiliconSmart
  • Understanding of behavioral Verilog models & experience in SystemVerilog for AMS circuits
  • Knowledge in Perforce and/or regressions is a plus
  • Exposure and working knowledge preferably with Synopsys tools like DC, PT, PT-SI and ICC2
  • Prior working knowledge in the DDR/SERDES PHY level timing closure, implementation would be an added advantage
  • Candidate with Machine Learning paradigms/techniques understandings with knowledge of applying it in modeling, circuit design flow & simulations is desirable

Our Silicon IP business is all about integrating more capabilities into an SoC—faster. We offer the world’s broadest portfolio of silicon IP: predesigned blocks of logic, memory, interfaces, analog, security, and embedded processors. All to help customers integrate more capabilities. Meet unique performance, power, and size requirements of their target applications. And get differentiated products to market quickly with reduced risk.
