• Brainstorming solutions to tough problems faced by our customers along with senior architects
• Proposing novel solutions to unique and large-scale problems.
• Designing and implementing highly scalable, multi-threaded algorithms within a multi-million lines C++ code base for the ZeBu compiler.
• Writing unit and full-flow test cases, specifications, and discussing project details with local leaders within the ZeBu performance team.
• Exchanging ideas and questions with team members, both locally and in other time zones.
• Working with our world-wide R&D / Application Engineer / Validation Engineer teams in a truly global fashion.

The Impact You Will Have:

• Strengthening the performance of ZeBu long term, contributing to the best capacity and fastest run-time emulation performance.
• Enhancing the key selling points of ZeBu, leading to significant business wins.
• Driving continuous improvements and innovations in the ZeBu compiler.
• Collaborating with a high-performing team to achieve shared goals.
• Contributing to the overall success and market differentiation of Synopsys products.
• Supporting the development of industry-leading technology that shapes the future.

What You'll Need:

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Deep understanding of computer science concepts, algorithms, and data structures.
• Knowledge and practical experience with object-oriented programming and theory.
• Understanding of compiler architecture.
• Knowledge of HDL language is a plus, but not required.
• 8+ years of experience working on large scale software applications / products in C/C++/Linux

Who You Are:

• Curious about computer science and EDA problems.
• Excited about solving concrete problems using computer science.
• Enthralled with making connections between different aspects of a problem.
• A collaborator with a team spirit, believing in shared success.
• Detail-oriented and excited by challenges.
• Possess strong communication skills, both written and oral

The Team You'll Be A Part Of:

The ZeBu family of emulators can support SoC designs as large as 60 billion gates. In the ZeBu flow, the design is partitioned and mapped into low-level bit-streams that can be downloaded and run on FPGAs in the emulation hardware. This compilation is done in a way that achieves the highest possible hardware throughput for the testbenches used to validate the design.

Performance is the key differentiator of our tool in the emulation industry. You will be joining the performance team of ZeBu. This team focuses on various areas of the compiler which are critical for performance, with significant responsibilities around DPI and clock processing.
