## Description

Synopsys software engineers are key enablers in the world of Electronic Design Automation (EDA), developing and maintaining software used in chip design, verification and manufacturing.

As a Senior Staff Emulation Engineer at Synopsys, you will bridge the gap between Emulation IP capabilities and Design IP verification needs across both Controller and PHY domains for high-speed interfaces like PCIe and DDR.

**Key Responsibilities:**

- Bridge the gap between Emulation IP capabilities and Design IP verification needs across both Controller and PHY domains for high-speed interfaces like PCIe and DDR

- Define technical requirements for Emulation IP, working directly with IP development and verification teams to ensure correct implementation and deployment on Zebu platforms

- Track and report key metrics on Emulation IP quality, performance, and coverage, driving continuous improvement across verification workflows

- Stay ahead of evolving PCIe and DDR standards, interpret specification updates, ECNs, and errata, and translate those into actionable changes for both Emulation and Design IP teams

- Review and validate test plans for Emulation IP and Design IP, ensuring completeness, traceability, and alignment with product quality goals

- Collaborate cross-functionally with verification, design, product, and platform teams to optimize emulation methodologies and standardize best practices

- Mentor engineers on emulation strategies, verification techniques, and IP development workflows

**The Impact You Will Have:**

- Accelerate time to market for high-performance IP by defining emulation strategies that catch issues earlier and reduce silicon respins

- Elevate product quality across Synopsys IP portfolios by ensuring Emulation IP meets the real needs of design and verification teams

- Drive adoption of best-in-class emulation and verification methodologies that become standard practice across the organization

- Influence the next generation of emulation solutions and workflows, positioning Synopsys as a leader in pre-silicon validation

- Improve cross-functional collaboration and alignment between geographically distributed teams, reducing friction and rework

- Standardize verification workflows and metrics, making it easier for teams to track progress, identify gaps, and deliver with confidence

- Shape how Synopsys develops and deploys Emulation IP for cutting-edge digital designs and system architectures

**Requirements:**

- 8+ years of hands-on experience in emulation, pre-silicon verification, or IP product development

- Expert-level knowledge of PCIe or DDR interfaces, including protocol details, verification strategies, and real-world implementation challenges

- Extensive experience with Zebu or similar emulation platforms, specifically for IP verification and system-level validation

- Proven track record leading IP product development initiatives with a strong focus on emulation and verification

- Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally in matrixed, global teams and drive consensus across diverse stakeholders

- Strong communication skills with the ability to influence technical direction and inspire change across engineering teams

- Comfort working in dynamic, ambiguous environments where requirements evolve and priorities shift
