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 highly skilled and innovative engineer who thrives in dynamic, project-oriented environments. Your expertise spans across digital IC design, with a strong emphasis on Design for Test (DFT), Memory BIST (MBIST), and silicon bring-up. You are passionate about solving complex technical challenges and possess a deep understanding of memory architectures, fault models, and industry standards. You enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams, engaging directly with customers, and influencing the adoption of next-generation test solutions. Your technical excellence is matched by your ability to communicate clearly and effectively, making you a trusted advisor both within Synopsys and to our clients. You are motivated by continuous learning, eager to prototype new methodologies, and excited by the opportunity to drive innovation in AI-enabled DFT solutions. You bring a customer-centric mindset, always seeking to help others succeed and to optimize their experience with Synopsys products. Whether leading early-adopter customer engagements or partnering with feature development teams, your leadership, adaptability, and drive for excellence make you a valuable member of the Product Engineering Team. If you are ready to make a meaningful impact on the semiconductor industry and help shape the future of test technologies, this role is for you.


What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Providing deep technical expertise in test solutions across design planning, implementation, and validation of Synopsys Test products.
  • Leading MBIST (Memory Built-In Self-Test) implementation and validation, including BIST architecture definition, memory grouping, pattern generation, and silicon bring-up diagnostics analysis and debug.
  • Driving, prototyping, and developing next-generation DFT methodologies and test suites to validate Synopsys SMS (Memory BIST) tool features.
  • Collaborating with internal stakeholders to define, develop, and deliver innovative capabilities within Synopsys tools.  
  • Leading early-adopter customer engagements, coordinating design methodology alignment, flow reviews, and technical readiness.  
  • Partnering closely with feature development teams to drive the delivery of AI-enabled DFT solutions.
  • Providing technical support, training, and account management to ensure customer success and satisfaction.
  • Assessing customer methodologies and flows, gathering requirements, and proposing tailored solutions.


The Impact You Will Have:

  • Accelerate customer adoption of Synopsys DFT and MBIST technologies, enabling successful silicon bring-up and robust test solutions.  
  • Enhance the quality and scalability of Memory BIST solutions for complex SoCs with heterogeneous IP integration.  
  • Drive innovation in next-generation test methodologies, contributing to the evolution of Synopsys SMS tool features.  
  • Strengthen Synopsys’ leadership in AI-enabled DFT and automotive-grade MBIST designs. 
  • Foster strong customer relationships through technical excellence, problem resolution, and proactive engagement. 
  • Empower cross-functional teams with your technical insights, influencing the development and productization of new test technologies.  
  • Ensure customer satisfaction and retention through hands-on support, training, and solution delivery.  
  • Win new customers by demonstrating Synopsys product advantages via competitive benchmarking and product evaluations.


What You’ll Need:

  • Bachelor’s degree with 7+ years of relevant industry experience, or MS with 5+ years in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related discipline.  
  • Technical excellence and hands-on expertise in RTL design, DFT insertion, ATPG, and end-to-end MBIST solution development.
  • Deep understanding of memory architectures and test principles, including fault models, MBIST algorithms, and repair strategies (hard/soft, eFuse-based repair flows).
  • Proven track record of delivering Memory BIST solutions for large, complex SoCs with heterogeneous IP integration.
  • Experience or exposure to automotive-grade MBIST designs and in-system test (IST) environments is highly desirable.
  • Strong working knowledge of industry test and debug standards: IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG), IEEE 1500, IEEE 1687 (IJTAG).
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence teams and engage effectively with customers.


Who You Are:

  • Innovative thinker with a passion for solving complex technical challenges.
  • Customer-centric, always seeking ways to help clients succeed.
  • Effective communicator and collaborator, able to influence and lead cross-functional teams.
  • Adaptable and eager to learn new technologies and methodologies.
  • Proactive, detail-oriented, and results-driven.
  • Leadership qualities with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.


The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

 You will join the Product Engineering Team under the Test Group at Synopsys, a dynamic and innovative group dedicated to delivering comprehensive DFT solutions. The team works closely with Solution Architects, feature development teams, and customer-facing engineers to develop and productize next-generation test technologies. Together, you will drive technical excellence and customer success, playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of semiconductor testing.

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.

At Synopsys, we want talented people of every background to feel valued and supported to do their best work. Synopsys considers all applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, military veteran status, or disability.
