Job Description and Requirements

We Are:

At Synopsys, we drive the innovations that shape the way we live and connect. Our technology is central to the Era of Pervasive Intelligence, from self-driving cars to learning machines. 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 passionate engineering professional with an unyielding commitment to excellence and customer success. With a solid foundation in electronics and extensive experience in FPGA logic design, you thrive in dynamic environments that require both technical depth and collaborative spirit. You excel at understanding complex systems and translating technical challenges into actionable solutions. Leveraging your hands-on expertise in Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL, you are adept at navigating the end-to-end FPGA design and prototyping flow, including synthesis, implementation, and verification.

You are eager to stay at the forefront of technology and are enthusiastic about engaging with both internal teams and customers to drive innovation and efficiency. Your communication skills are second to none, enabling you to clearly articulate technical concepts to diverse audiences and build strong relationships with stakeholders. You are resourceful, proactive, and always ready to go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction. Your approach is inclusive and collaborative, valuing diverse perspectives and fostering an environment where everyone’s ideas are welcomed.

As someone who values continuous learning, you are motivated to expand your skill set—whether by mastering new FPGA tools or exploring advanced prototyping methodologies. Your curiosity drives you to seek out best practices and share your insights with others, contributing to the collective knowledge of the team. If you are excited by the prospect of working on industry-leading FPGA solutions and making a tangible impact on cutting-edge hardware verification, this is the opportunity for you.


What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Providing expert post-sales technical support for Synopsys FPGA synthesis and prototyping software, including Synplify and Protocompiler.
  • Evaluating new software releases on customer designs, ensuring robust performance and seamless integration with customer workflows.
  • Collaborating with Field Application Engineers (AEs), R&D, and product teams to resolve complex technical issues throughout the FPGA prototyping lifecycle.
  • Creating high-quality application notes, technical articles, and training materials that enhance customer knowledge and promote best practices.
  • Delivering engaging technical trainings and presentations for internal teams and customers, empowering them to maximize the value of Synopsys FPGA solutions.
  • Interfacing with EDA vendors and ensuring compatibility and optimal integration between Synopsys tools (e.g., Verdi, VCS, Formality) and third-party platforms.
  • Supporting customers with partitioning, synthesis, place & route (P&R), and hardware debug challenges—providing timely, effective solutions.


The Impact You Will Have:

  • Accelerate customer success by ensuring seamless adoption and optimal use of Synopsys FPGA solutions in production and prototyping environments.
  • Enhance the reliability and performance of customer designs through expert troubleshooting and proactive support.
  • Contribute to continuous product improvement by sharing customer feedback and technical insights with R&D and product management teams.
  • Drive industry best practices by developing and disseminating high-value technical content and training resources.
  • Strengthen Synopsys’ reputation as a trusted partner in hardware-assisted verification and FPGA prototyping.
  • Foster a collaborative ecosystem by facilitating communication between customers, internal teams, and technology partners.
  • Support the evolution of Synopsys tools to meet emerging market demands and technology trends.


What You’ll Need:

  • B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech/M.E. in Electronics or a related field with 5+ years of logic and FPGA design experience.
  • Proven hands-on expertise in Verilog, SystemVerilog, and/or VHDL for logic design and implementation.
  • In-depth knowledge of FPGA synthesis, backend flow, architecture, and hardware implementation.
  • Experience with Xilinx or Altera (Intel) synthesis and prototyping software is highly desirable.
  • Familiarity with Synopsys tools (e.g., Synplify, Protocompiler, Verdi, VCS, Formality) and their integration in customer flows.
  • Strong scripting skills (e.g., TCL, Python, Perl) are a plus for automation and workflow optimization.


Who You Are:

  • An effective communicator who can translate complex technical concepts for diverse audiences.
  • A collaborative team player who thrives in cross-functional, multicultural environments.
  • A proactive problem-solver who takes ownership and delivers solutions with a customer-first mindset.
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced setting.
  • Adaptable, innovative, and eager to embrace new technologies and methodologies.


The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You will join the Synopsys Product Management and Marketing Group (PMG) as a member of the Hardware Assisted Verification (HAV) Team. This expert team partners closely with R&D, Field Application Engineers, and customers to deliver high-quality FPGA solutions and technical support. Our culture emphasizes collaboration, knowledge sharing, and a relentless pursuit of customer success.


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.
