Job description

We Are: At Synopsys, we drive the innovations that shape the way we live and connect. Our technology is central to the Era of Pervasive Intelligence, from self-driving cars to learning machines. We lead in chip design, verification, and IP integration, empowering the creation of high-performance silicon chips and software content. Join us to transform the future through continuous technological innovation.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Providing deep technical expertise in test solutions across design planning, implementation, and validation of Synopsys Test products.
• Leading MBIST (Memory Built-In Self-Test) implementation and validation, including BIST architecture definition, memory grouping, pattern generation, and silicon bring-up diagnostics analysis and debug.
• Driving, prototyping, and developing next-generation DFT methodologies and test suites to validate Synopsys SMS (Memory BIST) tool features.
• Collaborating with internal stakeholders to define, develop, and deliver innovative capabilities within Synopsys tools.
• Leading early-adopter customer engagements, coordinating design methodology alignment, flow reviews, and technical readiness.
• Partnering closely with feature development teams to drive the delivery of AI-enabled DFT solutions.
• Providing technical support, training, and account management to ensure customer success and satisfaction.
• Assessing customer methodologies and flows, gathering requirements, and proposing tailored solutions.

The Impact You Will Have

• Accelerate customer adoption of Synopsys DFT and MBIST technologies, enabling successful silicon bring-up and robust test solutions.
• Enhance the quality and scalability of Memory BIST solutions for complex SoCs with heterogeneous IP integration.
• Drive innovation in next-generation test methodologies, contributing to the evolution of Synopsys SMS tool features.
• Strengthen Synopsys’ leadership in AI-enabled DFT and automotive-grade MBIST designs.
• Foster strong customer relationships through technical excellence, problem resolution, and proactive engagement.
• Empower cross-functional teams with your technical insights, influencing the development and productization of new test technologies.
• Ensure customer satisfaction and retention through hands-on support, training, and solution delivery.
• Win new customers by demonstrating Synopsys product advantages via competitive benchmarking and product evaluations.

What You’ll Need

• Bachelor’s degree with 7+ years of relevant industry experience, or MS with 5+ years in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• Technical excellence and hands-on expertise in RTL design, DFT insertion, ATPG, and end-to-end MBIST solution development.
• Deep understanding of memory architectures and test principles, including fault models, MBIST algorithms, and repair strategies (hard/soft, eFuse-based repair flows).
• Proven track record of delivering Memory BIST solutions for large, complex SoCs with heterogeneous IP integration.
• Experience or exposure to automotive-grade MBIST designs and in-system test (IST) environments is highly desirable.
• Strong working knowledge of industry test and debug standards: IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG), IEEE 1500, IEEE 1687 (IJTAG).
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence teams and engage effectively with customers.

Who You Are

• Innovative thinker with a passion for solving complex technical challenges.
• Customer-centric, always seeking ways to help clients succeed.
• Effective communicator and collaborator, able to influence and lead cross-functional teams.
• Adaptable and eager to learn new technologies and methodologies.
