R&D Engineering, Sr Engineer-18704

Expand the engineering capacity of a team building memory compiler technology that powers semiconductor products globally

Improve SRAM circuit performance and reliability through rigorous analysis and debugging contributions

Accelerate memory compiler development timelines by becoming productive quickly and contributing meaningfully within your first six months

Support innovation in memory IP that enables customers to build faster, more power-efficient chips

Strengthen the technical foundation of SRAM development through disciplined circuit design and validation work

Help Synopsys maintain leadership in memory compiler technology by contributing to R&D that pushes the boundaries of what memory IP can do

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, VLSI, or a related field

Strong foundation in CMOS fundamentals and digital electronics

Hands-on experience with SRAM design or memory circuit design

Demonstrated ability to analyze circuits, debug complex issues, and perform root cause analysis

Understanding of semiconductor memory development principles

Experience with memory compiler development or SRAM validation is a strong plus

You can look at a memory circuit schematic and quickly identify where a performance bottleneck or functional issue might be hiding

You do not need everything explained twice, you learn development flows by doing, asking targeted questions, and connecting the dots yourself

When a simulation result does not match expectations, you treat it as a puzzle worth solving, not a reason to escalate immediately

You are comfortable contributing independently once you understand the context, but you also know when to pull in others for a second perspective

You can explain a circuit tradeoff or a debugging approach clearly enough that a teammate with a different focus area understands the core issue

You will join the memory compiler development team within the IP Group, focused on SRAM-related R&D activities. This team is responsible for advancing memory circuit design, analysis, and debugging as part of Synopsys's broader memory technology innovation efforts. The work is technical, collaborative, and directly tied to delivering memory IP that customers depend on.
