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. We partner closely with our customers across a wide range of industries to maximize their R&D capability and productivity, powering innovation today that ignites the ingenuity of tomorrow.

You Are:

You are the kind of person who treats ambiguity as an invitation to bring clarity, not as a reason to slow down. You step into complex, high-stakes moments with a steady presence, listening carefully for what’s unsaid, asking the questions that unlock momentum, and aligning people around the real problem—not just the loudest symptom. You thrive when the timeline is tight and the expectations are high, because you know how to prioritize what matters, communicate tradeoffs early, and keep progress visible without creating noise.

You approach customers and internal teams with the same mindset: partnership over posturing. You’re energized by the back-and-forth of discovery, and you naturally translate between different perspectives—technical, business, and everything in between—so decisions get made with confidence. You don’t just deliver answers; you build trust by being transparent, direct, and constructive, especially when the message is hard. When something breaks, you stay curious and methodical, tracing causes with patience while keeping the bigger picture in view.

You’re also someone who constantly looks for leverage. You notice patterns, turn one-off fixes into repeatable playbooks, and leave behind cleaner processes than you found. You balance precision with pragmatism, knowing when to go deep and when to move forward with a well-framed assumption. Above all, you bring a collaborative intensity—calm, driven, and generous—helping the team move faster together while keeping quality and integrity non-negotiable.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Supporting the industry-leading Synopsys PrimeTime Static Timing Analysis tool across pre-sale and post-sale engagements.
Driving product adoption through competitive benchmarking, customer evaluations, and articulating product advantages to design teams and management.
Delivering customer training, technical presentations, and hands-on workshops to maximize user proficiency and satisfaction.
Providing tape-out support, troubleshooting complex timing issues, and ensuring successful project completion.
Collaborating with R&D, marketing, and sales to relay customer feedback and influence product enhancements.
Developing and maintaining technical documentation, best practices, and knowledge base resources.
Participating in advanced customer collaboration initiatives to drive innovation and continuous improvement.

The Impact You Will Have:

Accelerating customer project timelines by enabling efficient use of PrimeTime and optimizing design flows.
Enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty through expert support, training, and problem-solving.
Strengthening Synopsys’ leadership in static timing analysis and semiconductor design solutions.
Facilitating feedback loops between customers and internal teams, driving continuous innovation in product features.
Empowering customers to achieve superior chip performance, power efficiency, and cost optimization.
Contributing to successful tape-outs and high-impact design wins for industry-leading clients.

What You’ll Need:

Expertise in Synopsys PrimeTime STA tool, with hands-on experience and deep knowledge of its features.
Strong understanding of timing corners, process variations, and signal integrity-related issues.
Familiarity with synthesis, physical design, extraction, and ECO methodologies.
Proficiency in TCL scripting for automation and tool customization.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with experience in customer-facing roles preferred.
BSEE or equivalent with 5+ years of relevant experience, or MSEE/equivalent with 3-4 years of experience.

Who You Are:

Collaborative team player who values diverse perspectives and fosters inclusive environments.
Proactive problem solver, able to work independently and manage multiple priorities.
Adaptable and resilient, thriving in a dynamic, fast-paced setting.
Detail-oriented with a commitment to delivering high-quality results.
Clear communicator, able to convey complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You’ll join a talented applications engineering team that supports the industry-leading Static Timing Analysis tool, PrimeTime. The team’s core purpose is to drive increased product usage, ensure customer success, and collaborate closely with R&D, marketing, and sales to foster innovation. Together, you will enable customers to build next-generation silicon chips faster and more efficiently, playing a vital role in Synopsys’ global leadership in chip design and verification.
