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 in verification knowing that finding the bug before tapeout is the difference between a product that ships and one that doesn't. You understand that a good testbench is not about coverage numbers on a dashboard, it is about building an environment that actually stresses the design in ways that matter. You think in corner cases. When someone describes a new protocol feature, you are already mentally mapping the sequences that will break it.
You are comfortable working in System Verilog and UVM, but you also know when to drop into directed tests because constrained random is missing something specific. Debugging does not frustrate you, it energizes you. You will spend hours in waveforms tracing a signal across clock domains because you know that is where the real work happens.
Working with RTL
designers across time zones does not slow you down. You ask the right questions, align on what needs verification, and move forward even when the spec is still being written. At Synopsys, you will work on IP that powers everything from AI accelerators to autonomous vehicles.
What You'll Be Doing
Define block and subsystem verification plans that map directly to design specifications and protocol requirements
Build UVM testbenches in System Verilog, including agents, scoreboards, coverage models, and assertion monitors
Write constrained random and directed tests that exercise protocol compliance, corner cases, and error injection scenarios
Debug RTL and testbench failures using simulators and waveform analysis to root cause and resolve issues
Collaborate with RTL designers and global verification engineers to align on design intent and coverage goals
formal verification techniques to prove properties and close coverage gaps
Drive verification closure by tracking coverage metrics and iterating on test plans until signoff
The Impact You Will Have
Your verification work determines whether IP blocks integrate cleanly into customer SoCs or require costly respins
You will close critical coverage gaps that prevent silicon bugs from reaching production
The testbenches you build will be reused across multiple IP releases, multiplying your impact
Your collaboration with designers will catch issues early, reducing debug cycles and accelerating tapeout
You will help establish verification best practices for a newly formed team in Ho Chi Minh City
The IP you verify will enable next generation AI, 5G, HPC, and automotive systems used worldwide
What You'll Need
Bachelor's or Master's degree in
Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science
2+ of hands-on design verification experience in the semiconductor industry
Strong proficiency in System Verilog and UVM for building testbenches and implementing coverage
Working knowledge of at least one protocol such as AMBA, PCI Express, CXL, UCIe, Ethernet, HBM, or DDR
Experience with industry standard simulators like VCS, Xcelium, or Questa, and version control systems
Solid scripting skills in Python, Perl, or Tcl for automation and regression management
Who You Are
You can take a protocol spec and translate it into a verification plan that covers what matters, not just what is easy to test
When a regression fails before a milestone, you dig into the waveform and find the root cause instead of waiting for triage
You communicate clearly with RTL designers about what you found and what needs to change, without blame
You manage multiple verification tasks in parallel without losing track of coverage goals or debug priorities
You ask questions when something in the design does not make sense, and you do not assume someone else will catch it
The Team You'll Be Part Of
You will join the newly created Subsystem Verification Team in Ho Chi Minh City, working on high-speed silicon-proven interface IP solutions. This team is part of Synopsys' global IP organization and collaborates closely with RTL designers, architects, and verification engineers across multiple sites.
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.
At Synopsys, we want talented people of every background to feel valued and supported to do their best work. Synopsys considers all applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, military veteran status, or disability.
