## Description

Our Hardware Engineers at Synopsys are responsible for designing and developing cutting-edge semiconductor solutions. They work on intricate tasks such as chip architecture, circuit design, and verification to ensure the efficiency and reliability of semiconductor products.

As a Staff Engineer in Analog Design, you will be part of the Yerevan-based team working on SerDes IP development for customers across multiple industries. Your work will directly contribute to IP deliverables that ship to external customers.

Key Responsibilities:

- Design and verify analog circuits for SerDes PHY IP blocks using cutting-edge process nodes, including PLLs, equalizers, drivers, and receivers

- Own engineering project functions from architecture through tape-out, ensuring performance, power, and area targets are met

- Drive internal and customer-facing design reviews, presenting technical tradeoffs clearly to engineering teams and external stakeholders

- Prepare technical specifications and customer documentation that translate complex circuit behavior into usable deliverables

- Mentor junior analog engineers, reviewing their schematics, simulation setups, and design approaches

- Estimate project timelines and resource needs, and manage project execution when needed to keep deliverables on track

Impact:

- Your analog circuits will power SerDes IP in AI, data center, and automotive systems worldwide

- The specifications you create will become the foundation for customer implementations and future design iterations

- Your mentorship will directly accelerate junior engineers' ability to contribute to complex projects

- The design reviews you lead will catch issues early, reducing costly respins and ensuring IP quality

- Your technical decisions will influence product performance and competitiveness for years

- Your collaboration across global teams will ensure designs integrate cleanly without escalation

Requirements:

- Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent technical discipline

- 5+ years of hands-on experience designing analog circuits with strong understanding of circuit operation and design principles

- Proficiency with analog IC design tools including Hspice, Primesim, Finesim, xa, Custom Compiler, and Waive View

- Ability to estimate project timelines and resources, and manage engineering work with minimal supervision

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English

- Experience with SerDes PHY design is a strong plus

- Familiarity with TCL, scripting languages, or AI-assisted design flows is a plus

Team:

You will join the Yerevan-based analog design team working on SerDes IP development for customers across multiple industries. The team collaborates closely with on-site and international engineering groups, and your work will directly contribute to IP deliverables that ship to external customers.

Rewards and Benefits:
