Description

We are seeking a Technical Support Engineer, Senior Engineer to join our team at Synopsys. As a Senior Engineer, you will work directly with customers using Ansys electronics simulation tools, and what you learn from them will feed back into how the product evolves.

You have spent enough time in electromagnetics or signal integrity work to know that the simulation is only as good as the setup, and the setup only matters if the customer can actually use it. You understand S-parameters, impedance, and eye diagrams not as textbook concepts but as tools you reach for when someone's PCB layout is causing crosstalk or their connector design is failing compliance.

Responsibilities

  • Provide technical support to customers using Ansys AEDT, HFSS, HFSS 3D Layout, SIwave, Q3D, and AEDT Circuit for electronics and electromagnetics simulation
  • Troubleshoot moderately complex simulation issues involving signal integrity, power integrity, crosstalk, impedance, and eye-diagram analysis
  • Work directly with customers and channel partners to understand their technical requirements and recommend workflows that align with their design objectives
  • Document product improvement opportunities, submit defect reports to development teams, verify fixes, and participate in field testing of new software releases
  • Evaluate new software releases using real customer use cases and industrial applications to support release readiness
  • Contribute to internal knowledge bases, technical documentation, and enablement content that help the broader support team and customer base
  • Share customer feedback, workflow insights, and technical needs with product development and field teams to inform product quality and usability improvements

The Impact You Will Have

  • Help customers successfully adopt and extract value from Ansys simulation tools, reducing time to resolution and increasing product confidence
  • Surface real-world customer workflows and pain points that directly inform product development priorities and roadmap decisions
  • Improve product quality by identifying, documenting, and verifying fixes for defects and usability issues before they reach a broader customer base
  • Strengthen customer relationships by delivering clear, practical guidance that solves their engineering challenges and builds trust in the toolset
  • Contribute to a growing knowledge base and support processes that scale the effectiveness of the entire Customer Excellence organization
  • Enable faster, more accurate simulations for electronics designs that power everything from consumer devices to aerospace systems
  • Build a feedback loop between field experience and product engineering that makes the software better with every release cycle

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or related field with coursework or focus in high-frequency electromagnetics; Master's degree is a plus
  • Hands-on experience with Ansys HFSS, SIwave, or comparable CAE, CAD, or EDA simulation tools or competitor equivalent
  • Working knowledge in one or more of these areas: signal integrity, power integrity, crosstalk analysis, impedance simulations, or eye-diagram analysis
  • Understanding of circuit-level and timing analysis for signal integrity applications, including relevant compliance standards and design considerations
  • Experience with package, PCB, or connector design workflows and the engineering processes that support them
  • Familiarity with microwave and antenna fundamentals including S-parameters, wave propagation, and scattering analysis
