Job Description and Requirements
At Synopsys, we’re at the heart of the innovations ushering the Era of Smart Everything, ranging from self-driving cars, Artificial Intelligence, Cloud, 5G and IoT. Chip design today is more complex than ever as it needs to accurately model silicon behavior at vanishingly small geometries while handling large designs with hundreds of millions of logic gates. All while solving a series of NP-hard problems to deliver best in class clock frequencies within tight power budgets. There is a huge opportunity to innovate by developing smarter algorithms, data structures, and machine learning techniques, as we scale our industry leading digital implementation solution for the next generation of powerful chip. If you share our passion for innovation, we want to meet you. You will be joining the digital implementation optimization R&D team in Synopsys' EDA Group and work on developing advanced algorithms in C++ to deliver cutting edge PPA (Power/Performance/Area) technology for Fusion Compiler product. In this role, you will be part of a highly experienced software development team and contribute to exciting new technologies for chip design automation, enabling leading design companies that shape our lives today.
Requirements: - Designs algorithms and data structures. Has desires to learn and explore new technologies and demonstrates good examination and problem-solving skills.
- Prior understanding and experience of EDA/CAD tool development are required.
- Possesses a deep understanding in one or more of the following areas: static-timing, logic- synthesis, P&R, optimization, and/or CTS area.
