understanding circuits at the SPICE netlist level
. Your expertise with Liberty format, including CCS and CCSN, allows you to seamlessly interpret and analyze timing and characterization data. You are deeply familiar with MOSFET transistor-level design and simulation and thrive in environments that demand both independent problem-solving and collaborative engagement.You are a clear and confident communicator, able to articulate complex technical concepts to design teams, management, and customers. You take pride in delivering exceptional customer support, whether through training, tape-out support, or collaborative product enhancement initiatives. Your proactive attitude, resilience in the face of challenges, and commitment to excellence make you a valued partner for both your team and Synopsys customers.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Working with Memory design houses as a primary technical contact for NanoTime, the industry's only transistor-level Static Timing Analysis tool, supporting both pre-sales and post-sales activities.
- You will be looking at customer's SRAM designs and schematics on a daily basis and helping them setup static timing analysis on their memory designs and generate .LIBs for the memory (CCS, POCV etc.) This requires excellent knowledge of memory designs, advanced static-timing analysis concepts including signal integrity, noise etc. and knowledge about .LIBS and the advanced formats like CCS/LVF etc.
- Driving product adoption through customer evaluations, demonstrating NanoTime's superiority, and articulating advanced methodologies to design teams and management.
- Providing comprehensive post-sales support, including customer training, tape-out assistance, and troubleshooting complex verification challenges.
- Collaborating with R&D, marketing, and sales teams to relay customer feedback and influence product direction and enhancements.
- Developing technical collateral, such as application notes and best practice guides, to empower customer success and knowledge sharing.
- Supporting advanced collaboration initiatives for continuous improvement of NanoTime and related products.
The Impact You Will Have:
- Accelerate customer adoption and satisfaction by enabling efficient, accurate transistor-level STA using NanoTime.
- Enhance the quality and reliability of customer tape-outs by providing expert support and training.
- Influence the evolution of Synopsys products by channeling real-world customer insights to development teams.
- Empower semiconductor design teams to achieve faster, more precise verification results, reducing time-to-market for innovative products.
- Strengthen Synopsys's reputation as a leader in custom circuit verification and advanced STA solutions.
- Expand Synopsys's reach in memory and standard cell verification through expertise with ESP and related toolsets.
What You'll Need:
- BSEE or equivalent with 6-7 years of experience, or MSEE or equivalent with 4-5 years of relevant experience.
- Strong knowledge of Static Timing Analysis (STA) concepts and Liberty format, including CCS/CCSN.
- Experience with SPICE netlist analysis, transistor-level circuit understanding, and MOSFET simulation.
- Familiarity with memory design and verification methodologies; experience with ESP tool is a plus.
- Proficiency in scripting languages such as TCL or Python.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with proven experience in customer-facing roles.
Who You Are:
- Motivated, self-driven, and passionate about semiconductor technology and custom circuit verification.
- Analytical thinker with strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
- Effective collaborator who thrives in multidisciplinary, cross-functional teams.
- Confident communicator, comfortable presenting technical information to diverse audiences.
- Adaptable, proactive, and eager to learn new technologies and methodologies.
The Team You'll Be A Part Of:
