You are a passionate engineer who thrives at the intersection of analog and digital design. With a keen analytical mindset and a collaborative spirit, you are motivated by solving complex technical challenges that drive the future of connectivity. Whether you are an ambitious new graduate eager to launch your career or an experienced engineer ready to deepen your expertise, you are excited by the opportunity to work on advanced SERDES and mixed-signal IP deployed in the most cutting-edge SoCs. You value not only technical mastery but also teamwork, mentorship, and the continuous pursuit of innovation.

 Your curiosity leads you to understand how analog and digital worlds interact, and you are meticulous in ensuring the highest standards of silicon reliability and performance. You are comfortable navigating the intricacies of co-simulation environments, debugging cross-domain issues, and collaborating with diverse teams across the globe. You bring a growth mindset and a commitment to excellence, eager to learn from industry leaders while also contributing your own insights to shape next-generation IP. If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-impact engineering environment and are driven by a sense of ownership and technical rigor, you will find Synopsys IPG to be the ideal environment to accelerate your career and make a meaningful impact.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Define, implement, and track comprehensive verification test plans to ensure robust coverage and quality for SERDES IP.
  • Build, enhance, and maintain top-level UVM-based System Verilog testbenches and AMS co-simulation environments, integrating RTL, behavioral models, and transistor-level netlists.
  • Perform functional verification of SERDES blocks, including TX/RX data paths, equalization algorithms, adaptation loops, CDR behavior, PLL locking, and analog/digital interactions.
  • Debug and resolve simulation failures across analog, digital, and mixed-signal domains, ensuring root-cause analysis and timely solutions.
  • Conduct design reliability checks such as electromigration (EM), IR analysis, and device-level stress evaluations to ensure silicon robustness.
  • Collaborate closely with mixed-signal designers, modeling engineers, and system architects across global Synopsys teams to deliver best-in-class IP.

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Enable the successful verification and deployment of high-performance SERDES and mixed-signal IP in leading-edge SoCs worldwide.
  • Drive quality and reliability in silicon that powers AI, automotive, cloud, and mobile applications at massive scale.
  • Advance the state-of-the-art in AMS co-simulation methodologies, influencing future verification flows and processes.
  • Contribute to the early detection and resolution of critical design issues, reducing time-to-market and silicon re-spins.
  • Foster cross-disciplinary collaboration and technical knowledge sharing across analog, digital, and architecture teams.
  • Enhance Synopsys’ reputation as the premier provider of high-speed connectivity IP through engineering excellence and innovation.

What You’ll Need:

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering or a related field (Master’s preferred for new grads). With an interest to grow within high-speed SERDES and mixed signal verification-New Grad
  • Strong foundational understanding of analog circuits (op-amps, bandgaps, PLLs, ADCs, TX/RX components, etc.)-New Grad
  • Exposure Verilog/System Verilog and exposure to AMS concepts or circuit design (coursework, labs, or hands-on experience)-New Grad
  • Experience with AMS tools such as HSPICE, XA, Custom Sim, VCS, and scripting languages like Python, Perl, and UNIX shell-Senior Engineer
  • Proficiency with System Verilog/UVM and AMS tools (HSPICE, XA, Customer, VCS)-Senior Engineer
  • Ability to debug analog-digital interactions and define robust verification strategies; experience mentoring is a plus for senior candidates-Senior Engineer

Who You Are:

  • Analytical and detail-oriented, with strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
  • Effective communicator who collaborates well in multidisciplinary and multicultural teams.
  • Self-motivated and driven to deliver high-quality results in a fast-paced environment.
  • Adaptable and eager to learn, with a passion for continuous improvement and innovation.
  • Proactive in seeking feedback, sharing knowledge, and mentoring others when possible.
