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 someone who gets genuinely curious when a customer's verification flow breaks in a way that doesn't make sense at first glance. You like figuring out why something fails, not just what failed. You have worked with Verilog or SystemVerilog enough to know that the syntax is only half the story, the real work is understanding what the designer was trying to do and where the toolchain got confused.

You communicate clearly in English, across time zones and teams. You are the kind of person who can explain technical issues to an engineer in cross-functionally and cross-regionally. At Synopsys, you will work directly with customers using tools that shape how chips get built, and the problems you solve will matter.

What You'll Be Doing

• Provide technical support for EDA design and verification tools including VCS, Verdi, Spyglass, Certitude, and Z01X, troubleshooting customer issues and working toward resolution
• Take ownership of tool migrations and validation across different release versions, ensuring customers can move forward without breaking their workflows
• Collaborate with application engineers, R&D teams, and customers globally to understand requirements, escalate complex issues, and support successful tool adoption
• Build and maintain strong customer relationships by actively tracking issues, following up on feedback, and ensuring satisfaction throughout the support lifecycle
• Learn and apply new tool features and capabilities, including AI-related functionality, as they become available
• Document technical issues, solutions, and best practices to support knowledge sharing across the team

The Impact You Will Have

• You will help customers adopt and trust Synopsys verification tools, directly affecting their ability to tape out on schedule
• You will expand the scope and quality of technical support available to customers in the region, strengthening Synopsys presence in Vietnam and Southeast Asia
• You will surface real-world tool issues and customer needs to R&D teams, influencing future product development and release priorities
• You will reduce customer downtime by resolving issues quickly and accurately, protecting project timelines and customer confidence
• You will contribute to a growing knowledge base that makes the entire applications engineering team more effective
• You will help customers navigate complex migrations and version changes, ensuring continuity and minimizing risk during critical project phases

What You'll Need

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
• Basic understanding of design and verification methodologies, or prior experience as an application engineer in the verification field
• Working knowledge of Verilog; familiarity with SystemVerilog, UVM, VHDL, or UPF is a plus
• Exposure to standard protocols and verification IPs such as AMBA VIP, or to static and dynamic verification concepts
• Strong communication skills in English, with the ability to work across functions and regions
• Willingness to learn new tools, features, and emerging technologies including AI-related capabilities in EDA

Who You Are

• You can take a messy customer problem, ask the right questions, and turn it into something actionable without needing your manager to translate
• You are comfortable saying 'I don't know yet, but I will find out' and then actually following through
• You stay organized when managing multiple customer issues at once, and you know which one needs attention first
• You can explain a technical concept to someone who is frustrated or under deadline pressure without making it worse
• You are genuinely interested in how verification tools work, not just how to use them, and that curiosity helps you troubleshoot better

The Team You'll Be Part Of

You will join the applications engineering team focused on EDA design and verification tools, providing technical support to customers across the region. The team works closely with application engineers worldwide and collaborates directly with R&D teams to escalate issues, validate tools, and ensure successful customer adoption. Your work will involve regular interaction with customers using tools like VCS, Verdi, Spyglass, Certitude, and Z01X, and you will play a key role in expanding support capabilities in Ho Chi Minh and the broader Southeast Asia region.
