Job Description

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.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Design and build core platform components for a Physical AI system that spans backend services, data pipelines, and frontend interfaces
  • Develop responsive, high-performance web applications using React or similar modern frameworks, working closely with UX/UI designers to deliver interfaces engineers actually want to use
  • Integrate AI and ML components, APIs, and simulation workflows into a cohesive platform architecture
  • Write and maintain code in Python, C++, and JavaScript/TypeScript across backend services and frontend applications
  • Participate in architecture discussions, code reviews, and technical decision-making that shapes how the platform evolves
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and monitoring for cloud and on-premise environments
  • Debug and resolve complex issues that span the full stack, from API performance bottlenecks to rendering glitches in 3D visualizations

The Impact You Will Have

  • Enable engineers across Synopsys to simulate and visualize physical AI environments with tools that are fast, reliable, and intuitive
  • Reduce friction between backend infrastructure and frontend experience, making the platform easier to adopt and harder to misuse
  • Accelerate development velocity by building reusable components, clear APIs, and automation that the broader R&D team can build on
  • Shape the technical direction of a platform at the intersection of AI, simulation, and 3D workflows, influencing how Synopsys approaches Physical AI tooling
  • Improve platform reliability and performance through disciplined testing, monitoring, and deployment practices that catch issues before users do
  • Support cross-functional teams by delivering features end-to-end, from data layer to UI, without dropping context or creating handoff gaps
  • Contribute to a codebase and architecture that scales as the platform grows in complexity, user base, and integration points

What You'll Need

  • 8+ years of software development experience building production systems, with demonstrated ability to work across backend and frontend layers
  • Strong proficiency in Python and C++ for backend services, data processing, and performance-critical components
  • Solid frontend development skills using React, Angular, or Vue.js, with a track record of building responsive, user-friendly web applications
  • Deep understanding of web technologies including HTML, CSS, REST APIs, and modern JavaScript/TypeScript patterns
  • Experience designing and deploying scalable architectures, including work with cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Hands-on experience with DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment automation
  • Experience with OpenUSD (Universal Scene Description) and familiarity with NVIDIA Omniverse or similar 3D simulation platforms is a strong plus, as is experience with WebGL, Three.js, or other 3D visualization frameworks
