R&D Engineering, Sr Manager

Deliver embedded memory IP that powers cutting-edge semiconductor products for Synopsys customers across AI, automotive, and high-performance computing

Accelerate time-to-market for memory compilers by improving design flows, automation scripts, and characterization methodologies

Enable your team to solve complex variation and power challenges in deep submicron and FinFET technologies, raising the technical bar across the organization

Strengthen cross-functional collaboration between design, CAD, and verification teams, reducing integration friction and rework

Build a high-performing, motivated team that consistently delivers on schedule and grows technically under your leadership

Shape the roadmap for next-generation memory IP, influencing architecture decisions that affect product competitiveness

Contribute to Synopsys' reputation as a trusted partner by delivering robust, scalable, and customer-focused memory solutions

BE/B.Tech/ME/M.Tech/MS in Electrical & Electronics Engineering from a recognized institute or university

15+ years of hands-on experience in embedded memory design, including SRAM, Register File, TCAM, or ROM

Deep expertise across the full memory design flow: architecture, circuit design, layout, compiler automation, characterization, timing, and model generation

Proven experience leading engineering teams and delivering complex projects on schedule in a multi-site environment

Strong proficiency in Perl and Python for design automation and scripting

Hands-on experience with deep submicron and FinFET technologies, including variation-aware design techniques

Solid understanding of CMOS fundamentals, digital design, RC circuits, transfer function analysis, and CMOS fabrication processes

You can walk into a layout review, spot the issue that is going to cause a timing violation three steps downstream, and explain the fix in a way that gets the team moving again

You manage multiple projects and shifting priorities without losing track of what matters most, and you communicate risks and tradeoffs clearly before they become blockers

You build trust across teams by following through, showing up when things get hard, and giving credit where it belongs

You know how to have the tough conversation when a design is not going to meet spec, and you do it early enough that the team has options

You mentor engineers not by giving answers but by asking the questions that help them think through the problem themselves

You stay current on memory design trends, advanced node challenges, and industry best practices, and you bring that knowledge back to your team
