Field Application Engineer - Emulation

Job Title

Field Application Engineer - Emulation

Role Summary

Provide hands-on engineering expertise to implement, integrate, test, deploy, and support Siemens EDA hardware-assisted verification and emulation solutions within customer ASIC/SoC design and verification environments. Work directly with customer engineering teams and internal product groups to enable successful deployment and production use.

Total cash compensation range: CAD 114,200–217,000 (includes a 20% annual incentive target).

Experience Level

Mid-level - typically requires at least 4 years of relevant ASIC/SoC design, verification, simulation, emulation, or prototyping experience.

Responsibilities

Key duties include technical implementation, integration, validation, and support of emulation solutions:

• Integrate and deploy Siemens emulation and hardware-assisted verification solutions into customer design and verification workflows.
• Configure, test, validate, and operate Siemens Veloce and similar emulation platforms for complex ASIC/SoC designs.
• Analyze RTL, verification environments, software interfaces, and flows to define implementation requirements.
• Perform hands-on testing, validation, and troubleshooting of hardware/software integration, compilation, runtime, and system-level issues.
• Develop and maintain scripts and automation for integration and operation (Python, Perl, Tcl, shell, etc.).
• Collaborate with customers, applications engineering, product engineering, and R&D to reproduce, document, and resolve product and integration issues.
• Create technical demonstrations, implementation examples, and training materials to support customer deployment.
• Support technical evaluations and production deployments; travel within North America as required.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience:

• 4+ years of experience in ASIC/SoC design, verification, emulation, simulation, or prototyping.
• Hands-on experience with hardware-assisted verification/emulation platforms such as Siemens Veloce, Cadence Palladium, or Synopsys ZeBu.
• Proficiency with RTL and verification: SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL; familiarity with UVM and simulation tools (Questa, VCS) or equivalents.
• Experience with C/C++ and/or SystemC in verification or system environments.
• Experience developing engineering automation and integration using Python, Perl, Tcl, or shell scripting.
• Strong diagnostic skills across RTL, verification software, emulation systems, host infrastructure, and customer environments.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills and experience working directly with customer engineering teams.
• Ability to travel within North America as required.
• Employment may be subject to ITAR/EAR export controls; ability to verify U.S. person status or obtain required license may be required.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline as stated in the posting.
