We Are
Synopsys is the leader in engineering solutions from silicon to systems, enabling customers to rapidly innovate AI-powered products. We deliver industry-leading silicon design, IP, simulation and analysis solutions, and design services.
You Are
You are an experienced C++ engineer who builds scalable, maintainable software for production environments. You bring a strong understanding of semiconductor fundamentals, including gate-level and transistor-level concepts, power delivery networks, and power integrity challenges. You work independently, take ownership once work is scoped, and focus on delivering reliable code, strong test coverage, and solid performance. At Synopsys, you will work on RedHawk-SC, a distributed analytics platform that helps engineers solve power and reliability challenges in advanced SoC designs.
What You'll Be Doing
Design, develop, and own significant features in RedHawk-SC, a distributed power and reliability analysis platform for advanced SoC designs
Drive medium-sized projects with limited oversight, from design through implementation, testing, and delivery
Optimize runtime performance and memory efficiency so the platform scales across large, complex datasets
Diagnose and resolve complex defects in C++ on Linux systems with a focus on quality and maintainability
Build and strengthen unit, regression, and system-level test coverage
Collaborate with technical leads, architects, and engineers to refine designs and integrate solutions
Support the team through code reviews, design discussions, and technical collaboration
The Impact You Will Have
Deliver software that helps semiconductor companies solve power integrity and reliability challenges in advanced chips
Improve the performance, scale, and quality of RedHawk-SC for engineers working on complex SoC designs
Build features that address customer needs in FinFET, 3D-IC, and stacked-die architectures
Raise the quality bar through strong engineering practices and disciplined testing
Contribute to the technical strength of the team through consistent delivery and sound judgment
What You'll Need
BSEE, BSCS, or related field with 8+ years of experience, or Master's with 6+ years, or PhD with relevant experience
Strong C++ development skills, including debugging, performance optimization, and memory management
Strong experience working in Linux development environments
Solid foundation in data structures, algorithms, and debugging complex software systems
Understanding of electronic design at gate or transistor level, including power delivery networks, timing, or physical design
Experience developing software for performance, scale, and reliability
Experience with distributed systems, Python, or ASIC power delivery network simulation is a plus
Who You Are
You take ownership of technical work and move it forward with limited oversight
You write production-quality code that other engineers can read, maintain, and extend
You communicate technical issues and tradeoffs clearly
You contribute well in cross-functional engineering discussions and design reviews
You are a strong collaborator and a dependable technical partner
The Team You'll Be Part Of
You will join the RedHawk-SC Research and Development team, building state-of-the-art software for semiconductor power and reliability analysis. The platform uses distributed big-data analytics to tackle challenges in advanced SoC design, including electromigration, thermal effects, and power noise integrity in FinFET, 3D-IC, and stacked-die architectures.
Rewards and Benefits
We offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs. Our total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings. Your recruiter will provide more details about the salary range and benefits during the hiring process.
