Job Title

Distinguished Engineer, Advanced Packaging Solutions

Role Summary

Lead architect for package substrate design automation within the 3DIC Compiler product line. Own architecture and implementation of algorithms and scalable C/C++ software for advanced packaging, multi-die systems, and chiplet integration.

Work closely with product, R&D, and customers to convert design bottlenecks into durable technical solutions and influence the strategic direction of Synopsys' advanced packaging offerings.

Experience Level

Senior — distinguished technical leadership level (senior/architect). Specific years of experience not specified.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include:

  • Architect and drive substrate design automation capabilities in the 3DIC Compiler platform.
  • Design and implement production-grade algorithms for HDI substrate auto-routing, design rule checking, PDN analysis, and manufacturability.
  • Develop scalable, performance-critical C/C++ software for multi-die and heterogeneous integration workflows.
  • Lead architecture reviews, influence technical decisions across the product portfolio, and set engineering standards for quality and performance.
  • Partner with customers and product teams to translate real-world design problems into robust software solutions.
  • Mentor engineers and raise the bar on algorithmic rigor, testing, and maintainability.

Requirements

Must-have qualifications and skills:

  • Deep expertise in advanced packaging, package substrate design, routing, power delivery, and manufacturability.
  • Proven track record of building production software products at scale, including performance and quality engineering.
  • Strong algorithmic foundation applied to physical design automation problems (auto-routing, verification, analysis).
  • Expert-level C/C++ skills for performance-critical, large-scale systems.
  • Experience in related domains such as custom IC design automation, physical verification, or substrate design tools.
  • Demonstrated technical leadership through architecture ownership, product influence, publications, or patents.
