What You'll Be Doing
Design and implement AI-enabled verification flows for Synopsys digital IP using VCS, Verdi, VMS Execution Manager, Verdi Planner (HVP), and VIPs
Contribute hands-on to the internal Agentic AI platform that IP engineering teams use to develop, verify, and deliver IP
Define and document verification methods, best practices, and practical AI use cases for digital IP projects that teams can actually adopt
Provide technical guidance on UVM, SystemVerilog, flow optimization, and debug to engineers working across global sites
Own technical initiatives from concept through production deployment, working independently and across cross-functional teams
Partner with EDA development teams to share field feedback and improve verification workflows based on real usage patterns
Diagnose flow issues, bottlenecks, and tool limitations, then develop and deploy solutions for internal teams and customers
The Impact You Will Have
Your verification flows will directly improve the quality, efficiency, and time to market for digital IP used across the semiconductor industry
The AI-enabled methods you build will accelerate verification workflows for engineering teams globally, reducing manual effort and catching issues earlier
Your documentation and best practices will become the reference standard for digital IP verification across Synopsys
The technical guidance you provide will elevate the verification capabilities of engineers across multiple sites and product lines
Your collaboration with EDA teams will shape the next generation of Synopsys verification tools based on real-world field experience
The solutions you deploy will reduce verification bottlenecks and enable faster iteration cycles for complex digital designs
Your work will help define how AI is practically applied to verification at scale, not just in demos but in production flows
What You'll Need
10+ years of hands-on IP or SoC verification experience, including building verification environments from the ground up and driving technical initiatives to completion
Strong working knowledge of digital verification methods and Synopsys tools including VCS, Verdi, VMS Execution Manager, Verdi Planner (HVP), and VIP
Proficiency in SystemVerilog, UVM, Tcl, and Python for building and automating verification flows
Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Electronics, or Computer Engineering; an advanced degree is a plus
Demonstrated ability to architect verification flows and infrastructure for complex digital designs from initial concept through production deployment is desired
Experience applying LLMs or other Agentic AI frameworks to accelerate verification flows is a strong plus
Ability to manage multiple priorities, document technical methods clearly, and communicate effectively across global teams and time zones
Who You Are
You explain technical tradeoffs in two sentences without losing the nuance, whether you are talking to a verification engineer or a product VP
You take ownership of problems end to end, make decisions using evidence and data, and offer practical alternatives when a standard method does not fit the context
You work independently without needing constant direction, but you know when to pull in cross-functional expertise and you collaborate effectively across teams and time zones
You share what you learn through clear documentation and direct knowledge transfer, and you stay current on verification and AI tools by focusing on what actually works in production, not what sounds good in a whitepaper
You stay hands-on with design and debug even at a principal level because you know the best architectural decisions come from understanding what breaks in practice
You push back when a flow or method is too vague, a timeline is unrealistic, or an AI use case is solving the wrong problem, and you do it with alternatives, not just critique
The Team You'll Be Part Of
You will join the Digital IP Verification Methodology Center of Excellence (COE), working with engineers across global sites to improve verification methods, apply current AI capabilities, integrate tools, and share best practices. The team supports Synopsys and its customers in developing and verifying digital IP.
