In short

Synopsys is seeking an early-career Memory IP Design Engineer in Noida, India, to design and simulate embedded memory circuits. This role involves supporting layout, characterization, and debugging, with opportunities to collaborate with global teams and advance in semiconductor design.

Responsibilities

  • Design and simulate embedded memory circuits including SRAM, ROM, and Register Files using Cadence Virtuoso and related tools.
  • Support layout activities by working with layout engineers to ensure design intent translates cleanly into physical implementation.
  • Run bitcell characterization and basic reliability analysis to validate performance across process, voltage, and temperature corners.
  • Debug circuit-level issues by analyzing simulation results, identifying root causes, and proposing fixes with guidance from senior engineers.
  • Collaborate with CAD, verification, and frontend teams to align on design requirements, timing constraints, and integration needs.
  • Characterize the memory compiler for desired PPA.
  • Use scripting in C-Shell, Perl, or Python to automate repetitive tasks and improve design flow efficiency.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 0 to 2 years of hands-on experience in CMOS circuit design, specifically with embedded memory such as SRAM, ROM, or Register Files.
  • Working knowledge of memory architectures, bitcell design, and circuit fundamentals including read/write operations and sense amplifier behavior.
  • Experience using Cadence Virtuoso or similar tools for schematic capture, simulation, and layout interaction.

Desired Qualifications

  • Exposure to scripting languages like C-Shell, Perl, or Python is a plus and will help you automate workflows and analyze data more effectively.
  • You can look at a simulation waveform and spot when something is off, even if you do not immediately know why.
  • You ask questions when requirements are unclear instead of guessing and moving forward.
  • You can work on multiple design tasks in parallel without losing track of deadlines or deliverables.
  • You are comfortable learning new tools and methodologies on the job, and you do not wait for someone to tell you every step.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive medical and healthcare plans.
  • ETO and FTO Programs.
  • Maternity and paternity leave, parenting resources, adoption and surrogacy assistance.
  • ESPP: Purchase Synopsys common stock at a 15% discount, with a 24 month look-back.
  • Retirement Plans.
  • Competitive salaries.
