Siemens EDA is a global technology leader in Electronic Design Automation software. Our software tools enable companies around the world to develop highly innovative electronic products faster and more cost-effectively. Our customers use our tools to push the boundaries of technology and physics to deliver better products in the increasingly complex world of chip, board, and system design.

About the Role

Siemens EDA, a global leader in semiconductor design software, is seeking a customer-focused Field Application Engineer (FAE) to support its PowerPro and Gencellicon solutions for RTL power analysis and optimization, timing constraint management, and design and timing closure.

You will work closely with leading semiconductor customers to drive successful evaluations, deployments, and adoption of PowerPro and Gencellicon, while collaborating with sales, R&D, and product teams.

The role combines expertise in RTL design, power analysis and optimization with knowledge of static timing analysis, SDC constraints, timing closure, and hierarchical SoC design flows to help customers address increasingly complex power and timing challenges.

Key Responsibilities

  • Partner with sales to define and execute technical strategies aligned to customer needs
  • Deliver product demonstrations, technical presentations, and workshops for PowerPro and Gencellicon
  • Lead evaluations and proof-of-concepts to drive business wins
  • Support deployment and adoption of PowerPro and Gencellicon across customer teams
  • Provide pre- and post-sales technical support, including debugging, methodology development, and training
  • Assist customers with RTL power analysis and optimization, timing constraint development and verification, and design and timing closure workflows
  • Support Gencellicon applications involving SDC constraint verification and generation, Constraint Certifier, Constraint Builder, Timing Equivalency Checking (TEC), constraint promotion/demotion, and multi-mode/hierarchical constraint management
  • Help customers integrate PowerPro and Gencellicon into existing simulation, synthesis, DFT, static timing analysis, and implementation flows
  • Collaborate with R&D and Product teams to resolve customer issues and influence product enhancements
  • Capture and communicate customer requirements, evaluation results, best practices, and product feedback

Qualifications

Required

  • Strong RTL design experience (Verilog/SystemVerilog/VHDL)
  • Knowledge of digital design, synthesis, and verification flows
  • Experience with RTL power analysis and optimization methodologies
  • Working knowledge of static timing analysis (STA) and timing closure concepts
  • Knowledge of SDC and timing constraints, including clocks, generated clocks, timing exceptions, false paths, and multicycle paths
  • Scripting skills (Tcl, Python)
  • Strong analytical, debugging, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • BS/MS in EE, CS, or related field

Preferred

  • Experience with power analysis and optimization tools (e.g., PowerPro, PrimePower, PowerArtist, or similar)
  • Knowledge of low-power methodologies (UPF/CPF)
  • Experience with static timing analysis tools and timing-constraint methodologies
  • Experience developing, debugging, or validating SDC constraints
  • Understanding of multi-mode and hierarchical SoC timing methodologies
  • Experience with timing constraint verification, constraint generation, block-to-chip constraint promotion, or timing equivalency methodologies
  • Knowledge of DFT-related timing constraints and their interaction with functional timing modes
  • Familiarity with Siemens EDA, Synopsys, and/or Cadence synthesis, implementation, and STA environments
  • Customer-facing experience (FAE/AE)
  • Exposure to advanced SoC designs and process nodes
