I korthet
Seeking a Sr. Engineer for Applications Engineering focusing on FPGA, RTL Design & Emulation. Responsibilities include providing technical support to global customers, troubleshooting complex issues, and collaborating with R&D. Requires a Bachelor's or Master's in Electronics Engineering with relevant experience in FPGA design and logic implementation.
Ansvarsområden
- Provide technical support to global customers using Synopsys Zebu Emulation and Protocompiler Prototyping software.
- Troubleshoot issues across partitioning, synthesis, place and route, and hardware debug.
- Work directly with customers to migrate their designs to new software releases, ensuring compatibility and resolving regressions or performance issues.
- Deploy new software features on live customer designs.
- Deliver technical training sessions to customers on tool usage and advanced workflows.
- Collaborate with Synopsys HAV R&D teams to report customer issues and advocate for product improvements.
- Support pre-sales evaluations by running customer designs through the emulation and prototyping flow.
- Travel occasionally to customer sites for onsite support, training, or critical issue resolution.
Krav
- Bachelors in Electronics Engineering with 2-3 years of experience, or Master's in Electronics Engineering with 1-2 years, specifically in emulation or prototyping environments.
- Hands-on experience with logic design and implementation using FPGAs, including synthesis, place and route, and timing closure.
- Strong working knowledge of Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL, including the ability to read, debug, and modify RTL.
- Practical experience with FPGA architecture and back-end implementation flows, including understanding of resource utilization, clock domain crossing, and design partitioning.
- Ability to take a vague customer complaint and turn it into a specific, reproducible issue with enough detail for R&D.
- Comfortable working across time zones and managing multiple customer issues in parallel.
Önskade kvalifikationer
- Exposure to Xilinx or Altera synthesis tools is a plus.
- Familiarity with Synopsys Prototyping or Emulation hardware and software is a plus.
- Experience with interface protocols like PCIe, AXI, UART, or I2C is a plus, particularly in the context of hardware-software integration.
- Scripting experience in Python, Tcl, or shell is desirable for automating workflows and analyzing log files.
- Ability to stay calm when a customer is frustrated or under pressure.
- Willingness to dig through synthesis logs, waveform dumps, or FPGA utilization reports.
- Ability to explain complex technical tradeoffs in an understandable way.
- Open to occasional travel for customer support, training, or onsite troubleshooting.
Förmåner
- Work with some of the most complex emulation and prototyping workflows in the industry.
- Support global customers who depend on Zebu and Protocompiler to verify chips that power everything from automotive systems to data centers.
- Enable customers to bring up complex SoC designs on emulation and prototyping platforms faster.
- Improve product quality by surfacing real customer pain points to R&D.
- Build customer confidence in Synopsys HAV solutions through responsive, expert-level support.
- Expand adoption of new software features.
- Reduce escalations and support load over time by delivering training that helps customers become more self-sufficient.
- Strengthen customer relationships by being the engineer they trust.
- Contribute to the technical knowledge base and internal best practices.
- Collaborate with engineers across geographies and gain exposure to Synopsys HAV hardware platforms.
