Analyze system-level trade-offs related to memory bandwidth, latency, power efficiency, quality of service, reliability, validation, and scalability.
Translate customer platform requirements and integration constraints into clear feedback for Synopsys Product Management, R&D, and roadmap planning.
Support technical closure of design wins by providing architecture guidance, configuration recommendations and competitive positioning.
Develop reusable technical material, application notes, and customer-facing guidance based on real engagement experience.
Train FAEs and customer teams on DDR/LPDDR architecture, memory subsystem integration, performance tuning, validation expectations, and deployment best practices.
The Impact You Will Have
Improve the quality of DDR/LPDDR design wins by ensuring customer memory architectures are technically sound before commitment.
Strengthen Synopsys DDR/LPDDR roadmap by feeding real customer memory subsystem requirements into product planning and R&D execution.
Reduce customer integration risk by identifying architecture, performance, power, validation, and bring-up issues early.
Help establish Synopsys as a trusted technical partner for next-generation AI, HPC, mobile, automotive, networking, and edge computing platforms.
What You’ll Need
Bachelors and/or Masters Degree in Electrical and/or Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science
5+ years of experience in DDR/LPDDR architecture, memory subsystem design, SoC integration, silicon validation, systems engineering, applications engineering, or customer-facing technical leadership.
Solid understanding of DDR and/or LPDDR controller IP, including memory architecture concepts, controller configuration, scheduling, quality of service, power management, training, validation, or system integration.
Good system-level understanding of SoC integration and ability to reason through memory bandwidth, latency, power efficiency, quality of service, reliability, validation, and software/firmware trade-offs.
Experience engaging directly with customer architects, design teams, validation teams, and technical decision-makers.
Ability to translate ambiguous customer requirements into clear technical recommendations, product feedback, and closure plans.
Strong technical communication skills, including clear written analysis, structured trade-off explanation, and ability to align customer, sales, product, and engineering teams.
Nice to Have
Experience with Linux, firmware bring-up, or software-driven debug of DDR/LPDDR subsystems.
Familiarity with advanced SoC architectures used in AI, HPC, automotive, mobile, networking, or compute platforms.
Experience with memory performance analysis, traffic modeling, quality-of-service management, memory hierarchy optimization, or system-level benchmarking.
Knowledge of advanced topics such as DDR5, LPDDR5X, LPDDR6, memory training algorithms, RAS features, chiplet-based memory architectures, or AI memory bandwidth optimization.
