We AreSynopsys 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 AreYou have spent enough time in electromagnetics simulation to know that the hardest part is not running the solver, it is helping someone understand why their S-parameters look wrong at 28 GHz or why their eye diagram is closing before they hit compliance. You think in workflows, not features. When a customer describes a signal integrity problem, you are already mapping it to HFSS setup decisions, meshing strategy, and whether they actually need a full 3D solve or if a 2.5D approach in SIwave will get them there faster.You do not need a perfect problem statement to be useful. Someone sends you a model with crosstalk issues and a vague description, and you ask three questions that get to the actual design constraint they are working under. You have debugged enough simulations to recognize when the issue is tool configuration, when it is physics, and when it is a misunderstanding of what the simulation is actually telling them.You care about the outcome, not just the answer. Closing a ticket matters less to you than knowing the customer can now run that analysis on their own next time. At Synopsys, you will work directly with engineers solving real signal integrity, power integrity, and high-frequency design problems using tools that matter in production workflows.What You'll Be DoingProvide technical support to customers using Ansys AEDT, HFSS, HFSS 3D Layout, SIwave, Q3D, and AEDT Circuit for electromagnetics and electronics simulationTroubleshoot signal integrity, power integrity, crosstalk, impedance, and eye-diagram analysis issues across package, PCB, and connector design workflowsGuide customers through simulation setup, meshing strategy, solver selection, and post-processing to help them reach valid, actionable resultsDocument product issues, submit defect reports with reproducible test cases, verify fixes, and participate in field testing of new software releasesEvaluate new releases using real customer use cases to assess readiness, usability, and alignment with industrial application requirementsCollaborate with product development, field teams, and senior support engineers to relay customer workflow insights and technical feedback that shape product directionContribute to internal knowledge base, create enablement content, and support process improvements within the Customer Excellence organizationThe Impact You Will HaveReduce time to resolution for customers facing critical simulation roadblocks on active design projectsEnable successful adoption of Synopsys electromagnetics solutions across signal integrity, power integrity, and high-frequency design applicationsSurface real-world usability issues and workflow gaps that directly inform product development priorities and release qualityBuild repeatable, documented solutions that scale support capability across the team and reduce future case volumeStrengthen customer confidence in Synopsys tools by delivering technically sound guidance that translates into design winsImprove product quality by identifying, reproducing, and validating fixes for defects discovered in production customer environmentsAccelerate release readiness through structured testing and feedback loops tied to actual customer workflowsWhat You'll NeedBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or related field with coursework or focus in high-frequency electromagnetics; Master's degree is a plusHands-on experience with Ansys HFSS, SIwave, or comparable CAE, CAD, or EDA simulation platforms in a design or support contextWorking knowledge in at least one of the following areas: signal integrity, power integrity, crosstalk analysis, impedance simulation, or eye-diagram analysisUnderstanding of circuit-level and timing analysis for signal integrity applications, including familiarity with relevant compliance standardsExperience with package, PCB, or connector design workflows and the engineering processes that surround themFamiliarity with microwave and antenna fundamentals including S-parameters, wave propagation, and scattering analysisU.S. work authorization required; U.S. citizenship preferred where required by customer, export control, or government contract requirementsWho You AreYou can take a vague customer description of a simulation problem and ask the two or three questions that clarify what they are actually trying to solveYou stay organized across multiple open cases, know which ones need urgency, and do not let details slip even when priorities shiftYou communicate clearly with customers and internal teams alike, whether you are explaining a meshing tradeoff or escalating a defect with enough context for engineering to act on itYou are comfortable saying "I need to check with the team on this" when you hit the edge of your knowledge, and you follow through until the customer has an answerYou can work productively with field teams, product managers, and senior engineers without needing someone to broker every conversationYou are willing to travel domestically up to 10% of the time to support customer engagements, training, or team collaboration as neededThe Team You'll Be Part OfYour recruiter will share more about the team structure and mission during the interview process.Rewards and BenefitsWe offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs. Our total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings. Your recruiter will provide more details about the salary range and benefits during the hiring process.
