You Are

You have spent years moving between RTL and bare metal firmware, and you know that the hardest problems show up where those two worlds meet. SerDes IP does not forgive sloppy handoffs or assumptions that worked on the last project, and you have learned to design with that reality baked in from day one. You understand that silicon bring-up is where theory meets the bench, and you are the kind of engineer who stays calm when the prototype does not behave like the simulation said it would.

You do not wait for perfect specs.



You ask the right questions, align with mixed-signal teams, and find a path through ambiguity without creating more downstream. When a junior engineer gets stuck on a timing closure issue or a register map conflict, you can walk them through it without taking over, because you have been there and you remember what actually helped.

You care about documentation and process, not because someone told you to, but because you have seen what happens when firmware gets handed off without it. At Synopsys, you will work on SerDes products that ship into real customer SoCs, and the decisions you make during development will matter long after tapeout.
What You'll Be Doing
- Design, develop, and validate bare metal firmware for NRZ and PAM-based SerDes IP targeting high-speed data recovery and serialization circuits
- Work directly with mixed-signal design and verification teams to integrate firmware with analog an
