You Are
You have spent years building software that sits at the intersection of complex technical systems and user-facing intelligence, and you understand that the real challenge is not just making something work but making it usable for someone who does not yet know how it works. You think in abstractions that simplify without dumbing down. You have worked with LLMs, not just as a user but as someone who understands prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and how to get a model to reliably produce structured output when the stakes are high.
You build systems that generate code, orchestrate workflows, and make decisions autonomously. You are comfortable working in ambiguity, defining what an AI agent should do when the requirements are still being figured out. At Synopsys, you will help shape how the next generation of engineers learns to design circuits.
What You'll Be Doing
- Develop AI Agents: Build autonomous, LLM-driven agents capable of schematic capture, component selection etc.
- Architect EDA Pipelines: Integrate open-source or proprietary EDA tools with AI orchestration frameworks.
- Optimize for Beginners: Design software abstractions that translate complex EE concepts into guardrails and suggestions for novice users.
- Create Code & Circuit Generators: Develop systems that generate valid HDL (Verilog/VHDL), netlists, and circuit topologies from natural language.
- Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with AI researchers, UX designers, and EE experts to refine agent accuracy.

- The Impact You Will Have
- Enable beginner electrical engineers to design and simulate circuits with AI guidance, reducing the learning curve and accelerating their productivity
- Transform traditional EDA workflows into conversational, automated experiences that make complex design tasks accessible to non-experts
- Build software that generates production-quality HDL and netlists, reducing manual errors and design iteration time
- Create a foundation for AI-driven design automation that scales across Synopsys product lines and customer workflows
- Contribute to research and development that pushes the boundaries of what LLMs can do in technical, domain-specific applications
What You'll Need
- Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
- Strong proficiency in Python, C++, or TypeScript for building production-grade software systems
- Hands-on experience with LLMs, including fine-tuning, prompt engineering, and integrating large language models into software applications
- Familiarity with AI agentic frameworks and orchestration tools for building autonomous, decision-making software
- Understanding electronic design concepts such as schematic design, netlists, or SPICE simulation is a strong plus
