## Description

Opening. This role exists to drive the innovations that shape the way we live and connect. We're looking for a talented R&D Staff Engineer to join our team and contribute to the development of virtual prototypes for complex SoCs, MCUs, or ECUs.

## What you'll do

- Designing and developing virtual prototypes (simulation models) for advanced SoC, MCU, and ECU platforms across automotive, datacentre, AI, and mobile applications.

- Modeling, integrating, and testing various peripherals using SystemC-based platform modeling frameworks.

- Collaborating with stakeholders to define IP modeling requirements and creating ESL (Electronic System Level) model specifications.

- Driving effective closure of technical issues, ensuring high-quality deliverables and alignment with project goals.

- Guiding and mentoring junior engineers and consultants in system-level platform creation, validation, and software bring-up activities.

- Engaging in early software development and testing use cases, including bringing up Linux, Android, AutoSAR, and embedded software applications.

- Contributing to the continuous improvement of virtual prototyping methodologies, tools, and workflows.

## What you need

- Strong proficiency in C/C++ programming languages.

- Extensive experience in modeling and integrating SoC peripherals using C/C++, SystemC, or HDL.

- Solid problem-solving skills with the ability to analyze and resolve complex technical challenges.

- Experience developing applications in assembly or higher-level languages.

- Understanding of SoC architectures and serial bus protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, and I2C.

- Hands-on experience with Synopsys Virtualizer tool (preferred).

- Knowledge of multi-core platform development and GitHub Copilot/Curson-assisted flows (preferred).

## Why this matters

- Accelerate early software development and validation cycles for Synopsys' customers by delivering high-fidelity virtual prototypes.

- Enable faster time-to-market for next-generation automotive, datacentre, AI, and mobile products through robust simulation models.

- Enhance the quality and reliability of software and hardware integration by facilitating early testing and debugging.

- Drive innovation in system-level modeling and contribute to the evolution of Synopsys' virtual prototyping solutions.
