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. These engineers play a crucial role in advancing technology and enabling innovations in various industries.
You are an experienced and visionary ASIC digital design architect who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. You bring a passion for solving complex system-level challenges and a track record of delivering innovative, high-quality silicon solutions. Your deep understanding of IP and SoC architectures enables you to see the big picture while meticulously refining subsystem details.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Defining architectural specifications for complex subsystems (e.g., memory controllers, compute blocks, interconnect clusters, power management units, or communication subsystems).
- Translating system-level requirements into detailed subsystem architectures, optimizing for performance, bandwidth, latency, power, and reliability.
- Integrating multiple IP blocks into cohesive subsystems, ensuring seamless interoperability, dataflow alignment, and compliance with SoC-level constraints.
- Leading cross-functional collaboration with hardware, software, verification, and physical design teams to ensure subsystem feasibility and correctness.
- Establishing and guiding verification and validation strategies, including defining coverage requirements and participating in silicon bring-up and debug sessions.
- Producing comprehensive architecture documents, specifications, and guidelines, and clearly communicating architectural intent to a wide range of stakeholders.
- Mentoring and coaching engineers, driving best practices, and fostering a culture of technical excellence.
The Impact You Will Have:
- Shape the architecture of industry-leading silicon IP and subsystem solutions that power millions of devices worldwide.
- Accelerate time-to-market for differentiated products by ensuring robust and efficient subsystem design and integration.
- Reduce risk through rigorous requirements management, architectural clarity, and cross-functional alignment.
- Enhance product performance, power efficiency, and reliability, directly impacting customer satisfaction and competitive advantage.
- Foster innovation by mentoring teams, introducing new methodologies, and championing best practices.
- Strengthen Synopsys’ position as a trusted technology leader in the semiconductor ecosystem.
What You’ll Need:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics or a related field, with 15+ years of industry experience.
- At least 10 years in semiconductor design, IP integration, or SoC/subsystem architecture roles.
- Deep expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog, simulation tools, and advanced verification methodologies (e.g., SV UVM, BFM development).
- Proficiency with industry-standard interface protocols (AMBA APB/AXI/CHI, DDR, PCIe, Ethernet, USB, UFS, etc.).
- Experience with synthesis, lint, CDC, low-power flows, and achieving verification closure.
- Strong documentation and communication skills for effective cross-team alignment and requirements management.
