What You'll Be Doing
Support customer tape-outs using PrimeTime, PrimeShield, PrimeClosure, and PrimePower, diagnosing tool issues, methodology gaps, and setup problems under tight deadlines
Work directly with customers at an engineering level to evaluate new features, run beta tests, and gather feedback that shapes product direction
Collaborate with R&D and product engineering teams to reproduce customer issues, propose enhancements, and drive adoption of newly released capabilities
Create and deliver technical training materials and presentations tailored to customer workflows and design challenges
Review product documentation and build demos that show customers how to solve real problems, not just how features work in isolation
Translate customer requirements into actionable feature requests and work with global teams to prioritize and implement improvements
Act as the technical bridge between customers in South Korea and engineering teams across Synopsys, ensuring nothing gets lost in translation
The Impact You Will Have
You will directly influence whether complex SoC designs meet their timing, power, and signal integrity targets and tape out on schedule
Your technical guidance will help customers adopt new sign-off methodologies and tools faster, reducing their time to closure
The issues you escalate and the enhancements you propose will shape future releases of PrimeTime, PrimePower, and related tools used across the industry
You will build long-term technical relationships with leading semiconductor companies in South Korea, becoming their go-to resource for sign-off challenges
Your training sessions and demos will enable customer engineering teams to work more effectively and independently with Synopsys tools
You will help bridge the gap between what R&D builds and what customers actually need, making the product better for everyone
The feedback loops you create between customers and engineering will accelerate feature development and improve product quality
What You'll Need
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related technical field
5+ years of hands-on experience in ASIC or SoC design, with deep exposure to timing analysis, power analysis, or physical design flows
Strong working knowledge of static timing analysis concepts, including setup/hold checks, clock domain crossing, multi-mode multi-corner analysis
Experience using at least one of the following tools in a production environment: PrimeTime, PrimePower, PrimeClosure, PrimeShield, or equivalent sign-off tools
Ability to debug complex technical issues across tool configurations, design data, and customer methodologies
Fluency in English and Korean for customer-facing communication, technical documentation, and cross-regional collaboration
Experience with scripting languages like Tcl, Python, or Perl for automation and workflow customization is a strong plus
Who You Are
You can walk into a customer meeting with incomplete information, ask the right questions, and leave with a clear action plan
You do not panic when a customer escalates an issue two days before tape-out, you prioritize, communicate clearly, and work the problem until it is resolved
You can explain a complex timing concept to a junior engineer and then turn around and discuss architectural tradeoffs with a design manager without switching gears
You are comfortable saying 'I need to check with R&D on that' instead of guessing, and you follow up when you said you would
You can manage multiple customer engagements at once without dropping threads or losing track of what you promised to whom
You take ownership of problems even when they cross team boundaries, and you do not wait for someone else to connect the dots
