Principal R&D Engineer-18137

We Are 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 Are You are a highly skilled and experienced software engineer with a solid background in development and routing algorithm tools. You thrive in dynamic, collaborative environments and possess a strong understanding of modern object-oriented C++ coding techniques. Your deep understanding of graph theory and its applications allows you to solve real-world challenges in multiple die design and manufacturing. You are not just a coder; you are a thinker and a doer, capable of contributing to the development of cutting-edge routing tools. Your ability to troubleshoot, debug, and offer support to application engineers and users makes you a valuable team player. You are ready to take on the challenge of contributing to code refactoring efforts for legacy modules, aiming to increase efficiency and re-usability. Your communication skills allow you to effectively collaborate with an internationally distributed team of R&D and application engineers, and you are committed to continuous learning and professional growth.

Design and develop advanced interposer routing algorithms for multi-die systems, including signal routing, power/ground distribution, and shielding strategies Implement and optimize routing engines using modern C++ (C++14/17/20), focusing on performance, memory efficiency, and maintainability Apply graph theory and computational geometry to model and solve complex routing constraints in 2.5D and 3D chip architectures Refactor and modernize legacy routing modules to improve code reusability, reduce technical debt, and enable future feature development Debug and resolve complex algorithmic and performance issues reported by application engineers and customer deployments Collaborate with a globally distributed R&D team across the US, India, and Asia to align on architecture, API design, and release milestones Provide technical guidance and code reviews to other engineers, helping elevate the quality and consistency of the routing platform The Impact You Will Have Enable Synopsys customers to route increasingly complex multi-die and chiplet-based designs that would otherwise be infeasible Improve runtime and memory performance of interposer routing tools, directly reducing turnaround time for design teams Increase code maintainability and extensibility of core routing modules, making future feature development faster and safer Reduce support escalations by building more robust, predictable routing behavior that handles edge cases gracefully Influence the technical direction of the routing platform through architecture proposals, design reviews, and cross-team collaboration Mentor engineers on the team, raising the bar for algorithm design, C++ best practices, and debugging methodology Contribute to Synopsys' leadership in advanced packaging and multi-die design, a critical area as the industry moves beyond monolithic chips What You'll Need 10+ years of software development experience building production-quality tools, preferably in EDA, CAD, or computational geometry domains Expert-level proficiency in modern C++ (C++14 or later),
