Original job description

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 have spent years designing PCBs that actually work in the lab, not just pass design reviews. You understand that a high-speed board is a system of tradeoffs between signal integrity, power delivery, thermal constraints, and what the fab can actually build at a reasonable cost. You have debugged enough boards to know that the best designs are the ones that anticipate failure modes three steps ahead.

Managing a team comes naturally to you because you have been the person in the trenches. You know what it takes to get a complex board from schematic capture through layout, fabrication, and into the hands of validation engineers who need it to work on day one. You coach your engineers through SI simulations in HFSS, help them interpret stackup decisions, and push back when a design is heading toward an expensive dead end.

You do not just manage projects, you build capability. Your team documents their work clearly because you have seen what happens when tribal knowledge walks out the door. You value structured processes, not for bureaucracy's sake, but because repeatable design flows let your team move faster and with more confidence on the next build.

At Synopsys, you will lead hardware engineering for silicon validation. Your boards will enable SERDES testing, power integrity validation, and customer demos that matter. The lab is well equipped, the engineering problems are real, and your team's work directly impacts product quality.

What You'll Be Doing

Lead a hardware engineering team that designs and delivers PCBs, custom test equipment, and thermal solutions for silicon validation programs
Design and optimize high-speed, high-power PCBs that support SERDES validation, ensuring transmission line performance meets test requirements
Work directly with board layouts and schematics to place test points, route signal paths, and enable validation engineers to characterize silicon performance
Run PI and SI simulations using HFSS to extract models, predict board performance, and catch issues before fabrication
Debug hardware in the lab using oscilloscopes, power meters, thermal cameras, and other test equipment to diagnose and resolve signal integrity and power delivery issues
Document board bring-up procedures, test protocols, and screening steps so lab technicians can commission and validate test hardware consistently
Drive continuous improvement in hardware design processes, test coverage, and lab infrastructure across validation programs

The Impact You Will Have

Deliver reliable, high-performance hardware that enables the silicon validation team to meet product release schedules
Build test setups that improve validation throughput, reduce debug cycles, and increase consistency across product families
Create hardware solutions that are functional, reproducible, and ready for customer demonstrations and engagements
Strengthen team capability by establishing clear design standards, documentation practices, and knowledge transfer within your group
Reduce board respins and fabrication delays by catching design issues early through simulation and design review rigor
Support Synopsys product quality standards by ensuring validation hardware meets performance, interoperability, and reliability requirements
Contribute to the long-term scalability of validation infrastructure as product complexity and speed requirements continue to increase

What You'll Need

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or related discipline with 10+ years of relevant experience, or Master's degree with 8+ years of experience
3+ years leading and managing engineering teams, including hiring, mentoring, and performance management
Deep hands-on experience with the full PCB design cycle from requirements and schematic capture through layout, fabrication, assembly, and bring-up
Direct experience interfacing with PCB fabrication houses to specify stackups, manage design-for-manufacturing constraints, and drive boards to production
Proficiency with PI and SI simulation tools such as HFSS, ADS, or equivalent for modeling and optimizing high-speed board designs
Strong troubleshooting skills using lab equipment including high-speed oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power meters, and thermal imaging tools
Experience managing project timelines, coordinating cross-functional work, and delivering hardware on schedule in a product development environment

Who You Are

You lead by example and know how to motivate engineers through complex design challenges without micromanaging their work
You communicate technical decisions clearly, whether you are writing a design rationale document or explaining a layout tradeoff to a cross-functional stakeholder
You approach design work with rigor and attention to detail, catching issues that others might overlook in schematics, layouts, or simulation results
You are comfortable making decisions with incomplete information, asking the right questions to fill gaps, and moving forward without waiting for perfect clarity
You take ownership of your team's deliverables and follow through on commitments, ensuring hardware shows up on time and works as intended
You value documentation and process not as overhead, but as the foundation that lets your team scale and onboard new engineers effectively
You stay current with board design techniques, fabrication technologies, and test methodologies, and you bring that knowledge back to your team

The Team You'll Be Part Of

You will work with a cross-functional engineering team of analog and digital designers and hardware engineers with a variety of backgrounds. Our R&D lab in Mississauga is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for high accuracy, high-speed test, and debug.

Rewards and Benefits

We 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.

Responsibilities

Lead a hardware engineering team designing and delivering PCBs, custom test equipment, and thermal solutions for silicon validation, including high-speed SERDES testing. Oversee simulation, lab debugging, documentation, and process improvements to deliver reliable validation hardware on schedule and reduce design issues and board respins.

Requirements

Requires a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, electronics engineering, or a related discipline with 10+ years of relevant experience, or a master's degree with 8+ years, plus at least 3 years leading engineering teams. Candidates need hands-on experience across the PCB design and production cycle, PI/SI simulation, fabrication-house coordination, lab troubleshooting, and cross-functional project delivery.
