## Description

You are an accomplished and forward-thinking engineering professional with a deep passion for the intersection of artificial intelligence and semiconductor design. Your expertise spans RTL-to-GDSII flows, and you have hands-on experience with industry-leading EDA tools, especially those driving the next generation of AI and high-performance compute silicon.

**What You'll Be Doing:**

- Partnering with leading customers to develop and implement advanced AI-driven RTL-to-GDS methodologies using Synopsys EDA tools, IPs, and libraries.

- Creating and optimizing design flows and solutions to meet aggressive PPA (performance, power, area) targets for high-frequency cores, automotive, and high-capacity AI/compute designs.

- Enabling and deploying flows/solutions leveraging Synopsys offerings such as Fusion Compiler, RTL Architect, and AI-based Design Space Optimization engines, utilizing Tcl/Python scripting for automation.

- Collaborating cross-functionally with customers, R&D, and internal teams to drive innovative solution and feature development that anticipates and addresses real-world design challenges.

- Leading and mentoring a team of junior application engineers, providing technical guidance, coaching, and project management support to ensure successful execution of deliverables.

- Delivering technical presentations, application notes, and best practices to both internal and external stakeholders, supporting knowledge-sharing and customer enablement.

**The Impact You Will Have:**

- Accelerate customer adoption of next-generation AI-driven design methodologies, empowering them to achieve breakthrough silicon results.

- Shape Synopsys' technology direction by providing valuable field insights and partnering with R&D on new feature development.

- Reduce time-to-market and improve competitiveness for customers through innovative flow optimization and automation.

- Drive Synopsys' leadership in AI-powered EDA solutions, further differentiating our offerings in a competitive market.

- Elevate the technical capabilities of the application engineering team through mentorship and cross-training.

- Enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty through proactive engagement, expert troubleshooting, and tailored technical support & escalation management.

**What You'll Need:**

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field with 9+ years of relevant experience.

- Deep understanding of RTL-to-GDSII flows and hands-on experience with backend P&R tools (Fusion Compiler, ICC2, or similar).

- Expertise in physical synthesis, timing closure, clock tree synthesis (CTS), and routing at advanced technology nodes (like 2nm/3nm/5nm etc).

- Proficiency in Tcl and Python scripting for automating EDA workflows and optimizing design methodologies.

- Strong technical account management skills and a proven ability to lead and mentor teams in a high-performance environment.

- Outstanding verbal and written communication, presentation, and customer interaction skills.
