Analog Design, Staff Engineer

• Review and analyze die, package, and PCB physical layouts for signal integrity and power integrity performance on high-speed interfaces
• Model, simulate, and verify DDR, HBM, UCIe, PCIe, and Ethernet interfaces using SPICE and 3D field solvers to ensure compliance with specifications
• Drive improvements to SI/PI methodology flows, identifying bottlenecks and building automation to increase accuracy and turnaround time
• Collaborate with IP development, customer engagement, and CAD teams on cross-functional projects tied to next-generation interface rollouts
• Independently lead SI/PI research and development activities for emerging standards including MRDIMM, LPDDR6, HBM4, and UCIe
• Debug and resolve signal integrity and power integrity issues in customer SoC, package, and board designs across different application domains
• Script and automate simulation workflows using Python and TCL to streamline repetitive tasks and improve team productivity

• Enable SI/PI sign-off for customer designs across automotive, data center, mobile, and AI applications, directly affecting tape-out schedules and product success
• Improve the speed and accuracy of SI/PI methodology flows used by teams globally, reducing simulation turnaround time and increasing confidence in results
• Provide technical guidance to customers on next-generation memory and interconnect IP, helping them navigate design tradeoffs before they commit to silicon
• Drive early research into emerging standards so Synopsys can deliver IP and tools ahead of industry adoption curves
• Build cross-team collaboration between Bengaluru, North America, and APAC engineering groups, ensuring knowledge transfer and consistent methodology
• Contribute to Synopsys' leadership in high-speed interface IP by solving hard problems that competitors have not figured out yet
• Support the development of AI-driven SoCs by ensuring the memory and interconnect layers can actually deliver the bandwidth the architecture promises

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in signal integrity, power integrity, or high-speed interface design
• Strong working knowledge of transmission line theory, time-domain and frequency-domain analysis, and S-parameter modeling
• Proficiency with SPICE simulation tools and experience using 3D electromagnetic field solvers for layout extraction and analysis
• Practical understanding of DDR, HBM, UCIe, PCIe, or Ethernet interface architectures and their SI/PI challenges
• Solid verbal and written communication skills in English, you will work with global teams and customer-facing engineers regularly
• Experience with Python and TCL scripting for simulation automation and data post-processing is a strong plus

• You can look at a layout and immediately spot the return path discontinuity or the stub that is going to cause reflections at 10 GHz
• You are comfortable explaining a complex SI tradeoff to a customer architect in two sentences without losing the technical nuance
• You do not treat simulation as a black box, if the results do not make sense, you dig into the model until you understand why
• You are organized enough to juggle multiple customer engagements and internal projects without dropping threads or missing deadlines
• You push back when a design decision does not make sense from an SI/PI perspective, and you do it with data, not opinion
• You are curious about what is coming next in the industry and you actively read specs, papers, and early drafts of emerging standards
