Synopsys is seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to join their remote team in Canada. You will be responsible for building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, debugging build and runtime issues on Linux, and supporting DevOps services. This role requires a Bachelor's degree, experience with Git, scripting, and C/C++ development.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using tools like Azure DevOps, GitLab CI, or Jenkins to automate build, test, and packaging workflows for C/C++ codebases
- Debug compilation failures, linker errors, and runtime issues on Linux, working directly with developers to resolve toolchain and dependency problems
- Maintain and document DevOps services and automation flows, ensuring they are reliable, monitored, and understood by the teams that depend on them
- Collaborate with development, QA, and IT teams to adjust build and packaging processes as product requirements evolve
- Support best practices for compiler configurations, OS compatibility, and code quality tooling across multiple Linux distributions
- Test and validate software releases, ensuring that builds are reproducible, dependencies are managed, and packaging meets release standards
- Work under the guidance of senior DevOps engineers and the DevOps Manager, learning the product build ecosystem and contributing to its operation
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field
- Hands-on experience using Git and code management platforms like Azure DevOps, GitHub, or Bitbucket
- Practical experience developing software in C/C++, with an understanding of how code gets compiled, linked, and packaged
- Working knowledge of Python and bash scripting for automation and tooling
- Strong debugging skills, including familiarity with compiler and linker options, runtime loaders, and library dependencies on Linux
- Ability to work effectively in a distributed team across time zones
Desired Qualifications
- Experience with build management or continuous integration tools is a plus
- You can look at a build log with 500 lines of output and find the two lines that actually matter
- You communicate clearly when something is broken, what you have tried, and what you need from someone else to move forward
- You are comfortable asking questions when you do not understand a requirement or a system, and you follow up until you do
- You can balance multiple tasks without losing track of what is blocking what, and you know when to escalate versus when to keep digging
- You learn quickly from documentation, from code, and from the people around you, and you do not need to be told the same thing twice
- You care about the quality of your work, not just whether it passes a checklist, but whether it actually solves the problem for the people who depend on it
Benefits
- Comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits
- Total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings
- Reasonable accommodation to individuals throughout the recruitment and employment process for individuals with disabilities
