## Description

You will engineer the future with Synopsys, the leader in engineering solutions from silicon to systems, enabling customers to rapidly innovate AI-powered products. As a Foundry Analog IP Program Manager, Sr Staff, you will serve as the primary interface between Synopsys and foundry partners in Taiwan, coordinating IP enablement programs across multiple process nodes and technology platforms.

Responsibilities:

- Manage cross-functional communication between Sales, Marketing, FAE, CAE, R&D, and foundry engineering teams to align on schedules, deliverables, and technical requirements

- Track and drive resolution of technical issues related to PDK updates, design kit releases, IP characterization, and test chip bring-up

- Identify program risks early, escalate appropriately, and coordinate mitigation plans across internal and external stakeholders

- Coordinate test chip design, tapeout schedules, and silicon characterization activities with foundry partners to validate IP performance on new process technologies

- Maintain program dashboards, status reports, and executive briefings that translate complex technical progress into clear business outcomes

- Bridge foundry adoption timelines with internal IP development roadmaps, ensuring Synopsys IP is ready when customers need it for their SoC designs

The Impact You Will Have:

- Enable Synopsys IP to be available on leading-edge process nodes faster, giving customers earlier access to differentiated IP for their products

- Reduce time-to-market for customer SoCs by ensuring smooth IP integration and fewer late-stage surprises during tapeout

- Strengthen foundry partnerships by being the reliable, knowledgeable point of contact who makes collaboration easier and more predictable

- Improve internal R&D efficiency by surfacing foundry updates and design kit changes before they become blockers

- Drive higher IP quality and performance by coordinating thorough test chip validation and silicon characterization programs

- Increase customer confidence in Synopsys IP by ensuring robust enablement and proven silicon results on the processes they care about

- Shape how Synopsys engages with foundries on future technology nodes by bringing lessons learned and process improvements back into the organization

Requirements:

- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent technical field with 10 to 15+ years of relevant semiconductor industry experience

- Deep working knowledge of IC manufacturing, process technology nodes, design enablement flows, and sign-off processes

- Fluency in both English and Mandarin, with the ability to navigate technical discussions and business negotiations in both languages

- Direct experience coordinating with foundries, whether through PDK development, IP design, CAD tool enablement, or quality management programs

- Familiarity with analog and digital SoC design flows, including physical design, characterization, and silicon validation methodologies

- Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools for program tracking and reporting; working knowledge of Copilot is a plus

- Experience communicating technical program status to stakeholders at multiple levels, from engineering teams to executive leadership
