SoC Verification Technical Lead

Synopsys is the leader in engineering solutions from silicon to systems, enabling customers to rapidly innovate AI-powered products. We deliver industry-leading silicon design, IP, simulation and analysis solutions, and design services. We partner closely with our customers across a wide range of industries to maximize their R&D capability and productivity, powering innovation today that ignites the ingenuity of tomorrow.
You have learned to read a customer's SOC spec and immediately know where the risk lives, whether it is in the interconnect, the power domain crossings, or that custom accelerator block nobody wants to talk about yet.
At Synopsys, you will work directly with customers building chips for AI, automotive, aerospace, and high-performance computing, and the verification strategies you build will determine whether their silicon works.
Lead verification execution for customer SoC, subsystem, and IP projects, from verification planning through signoff, working directly with customer engineering teams to define scope and deliverables
Debug complex multi-protocol and multi-domain SoC issues using waveform analysis, coverage analysis, and cross-functional collaboration with design, architecture, and post-silicon teams
Identify project risks early, propose mitigation strategies, and communicate status and blockers to Synopsys management and customer stakeholders
Your verification plans and execution will directly determine whether customer chips tape out on schedule or slip quarters, affecting product launch timelines for AI accelerators, automotive SoCs, and aerospace systems
The engineers you mentor will grow into technical leads themselves, building verification capability across Synopsys that scales to future customer engagements
Your early identification of design risks and verification gaps will prevent costly respins and post-silicon surprises for customers building chips in 5nm and below
The methodology improvements you drive will reduce verification cycle time and improve coverage quality across dozens of SSG projects annually
Your direct customer engagement will shape how leading semiconductor companies adopt and deploy Synopsys EDA tools and IP in their verification flows
The testbench architectures and VIP integration strategies you build will become reusable assets for future projects, compressing ramp time for new customer engagements
Your technical leadership will help Synopsys win and retain customer relationships in high-performance computing, automotive, and aerospace markets where verification complexity is a competitive differentiator
Bachelor's or Master's in Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field with 5+ years of hands-on SoC, subsystem, or IP verification experience
Deep technical expertise in UVM testbench development, coverage analysis, verification planning, and complex multi-domain debug
Proven experience leading verification teams through full project cycles, including resource planning, task assignment, and delivery against customer schedules
Experience with ARM-based technologies including Coresight debug infrastructure, processor architecture, or AMBA protocols is a strong plus
You can walk into a customer meeting, hear a high-level SoC architecture description, and walk out with a verification plan that identifies the three highest-risk areas before anyone else in the room sees them
You do not let a project drift. You will join the System Solutions Group (SSG), a team that delivers end-to-end SoC design and verification services to Synopsys customers across automotive, high-performance computing, aerospace, and defense. SSG works on everything from individual IP blocks to full turnkey SoCs, partnering with customers ranging from startups to industry leaders and government agencies. Your verification work will span subsystems and full chips, and you will collaborate closely with Synopsys architecture, design, EDA application engineering, and sales teams to deploy tool and IP solutions that solve real customer problems.
We offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs. Synopsys considers all applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, military veteran status, or disability.
