I korthet

Synopsys is seeking a Hardware/Software System Performance Expert in Munich with 8+ years of experience in system architecture and performance modeling. You will develop architecture exploration methodologies, build performance models using C/C++, Python, and SystemC, and create exploration tools for next-generation semiconductor systems. This role requires a strong background in hardware design, software optimization, and cross-functional collaboration.

Ansvarsområden

  • Develop architecture exploration methodologies for SoC, multi-die, and chiplet-based systems to support early design trade-off decisions.
  • Build performance models and virtual prototyping environments using C/C++, Python, and SystemC to characterize next-generation semiconductor architectures.
  • Create benchmarks, workloads, and design-space exploration tools that enable scalable evaluation of complex hardware/software systems.
  • Collaborate with architecture, IP, software, and verification teams across Synopsys to define modeling approaches, validation strategies, and proof-of-concept demonstrations.
  • Drive technical thought leadership by publishing findings, presenting them at conferences, contributing to standards bodies, and sharing best practices internally and externally.
  • Contribute to reference platforms and technical demonstrations that showcase Synopsys IP, EDA tools, and system-level solutions to customers and partners.
  • Integrate AI-assisted development workflows into rapid prototyping, automation, and tooling to accelerate methodology development and technical exploration.

Krav

  • MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 8+ years of hands-on experience in system architecture, performance modeling, hardware/software co-design, or semiconductor verification.
  • Strong proficiency in C/C++ and Python for performance-critical modeling, algorithm development, automation, and tooling.
  • Deep experience with hardware design and verification, including RTL development, simulation, debug, and performance characterization of complex SoC or multi-die systems.
  • Proven track record of technical communication through publications, conference presentations, patents, or contributions to industry standards and technical communities.
  • Experience with virtual prototyping, design-space exploration tools, or simulation frameworks for architecture evaluation.

Önskade kvalifikationer

  • Experience integrating AI-assisted development workflows into rapid prototyping, data analysis, or tool development is a strong plus.
  • You can take a vague architectural question and turn it into a concrete modeling plan with defined assumptions, measurable outputs, and a timeline that actually holds.
  • You write code that other engineers can pick up six months later without needing you in the room to explain it.
  • You are comfortable presenting technical findings to a room that includes both deep RTL experts and software architects who have never touched Verilog, and you calibrate your message accordingly.
  • You treat proof-of-concept work as a forcing function for clarity, not a shortcut, and you know when to stop refining and start sharing results.
  • You stay current with emerging architectures, chiplet standards, and system-level design trends, and you bring that perspective into the work without waiting to be asked.

Förmåner

  • Comprehensive medical and healthcare plans that work for you and your family.
  • In addition to company holidays, we have ETO and FTO Programs.
  • Maternity and paternity leave, parenting resources, adoption and surrogacy assistance, and more.
  • Purchase Synopsys common stock at a 15% discount, with a 24 month look-back.
  • Save for your future with our retirement plans that vary by region and country.
  • Competitive salaries.
