Description
Our Hardware Engineers at Synopsys are responsible for designing and developing cutting-edge semiconductor solutions.
Within our HPC Controller IP organization, the mid-end team is the bridge between RTL design and physical implementation.
You are a motivated mid-end engineer with a solid grasp of ASIC design and verification flows, and genuine enthusiasm for automation, flow robustness, and using AI to raise engineering productivity, debug speed, and quality of results.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Develop, run, and support mid-end flows spanning synthesis, DFT, static checking (SpyGlass), formal equivalence, power analysis, and related quality gates.
- Convert RTL outputs into clean, constrained, implementation-ready inputs for physical design.
- Build and maintain Tcl-based automation, dashboards, and project infrastructure , and apply AI to accelerate the work (e.g., triaging flow logs, summarizing QoR trends, drafting and refactoring scripts).
- Debug flow failures end to end: analyze reports, isolate root cause, and drive issues to closure with design, verification, DFT, and implementation teams.
- Improve documentation, handoff criteria, and reusable collateral so execution stays consistent across IP programs.
The Impact You Will Have:
- Higher-quality RTL-to-physical-design handoffs and lower implementation risk.
- Faster, more scalable execution through stronger automation and AI-enabled analysis.
- Synthesis, DFT, static, formal, and power issues caught earlier in the cycle.
- Tighter collaboration across the RTL-to-implementation chain.
- Robust, implementation-ready soft IP shipped with clear constraints, checks, and release collateral.
What You'll Need(Core):
- Working knowledge of ASIC design, verification, and mid-end development flows, typically gained through 2+ years of relevant experience or equivalent project work.
- Hands-on synthesis experience, with the ability to analyze and resolve synthesis issues.
- Good Tcl scripting skills and a practical, automation-first mindset.
- Familiarity with some of the following: DFT concepts, static checking (SpyGlass or equivalent), formal equivalence (e.g., Formality), or power analysis , and willingness to grow across the rest.
- Ability to use AI tools effectively to accelerate debugging, summarize results, and improve scripts and flows.
- Good analytical, problem-solving, communication, and documentation skills.
- BS/MS in Electrical/Computer Engineering or equivalent experience.
