You Are:

You are an experienced product leader with a strong understanding of the IC design and test lifecycle, from architectural definition through implementation, signoff, and manufacturing. You combine domain expertise in design-for-test (DFT), automatic test pattern generation (ATPG), built-in self-test (BIST), memory test and repair, and yield diagnostics with strong product-management skills.

You understand customer workflows, market dynamics, competitive offerings, and emerging requirements in in-system and manufacturing test. You are comfortable translating customer and market needs into product requirements, setting priorities, building roadmaps, and driving execution across R&D, Product Engineering, Field Applications Engineering, Sales, and Marketing. You can engage credibly with both senior customer engineering leaders and internal executives and turn technical insight into clear product strategy. Located ideally in Sunnyvale Bay area.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Own the product strategy, positioning, roadmap, lifecycle and product operations for Synopsys' products for In-System and Memory Test & Repair solutions.
  • Develop a deep understanding of customer problems, market trends, competitive dynamics, and technology transitions to identify new product and business opportunities.
  • Translate market and customer requirements into clear product requirements, priorities, business cases, and release objectives for R&D and engineering teams.
  • Drive roadmap planning and prioritization across customer commitments, product quality, usability, and longer-term innovation.
  • Partner with R&D and Product Engineering throughout the development lifecycle to ensure product scope, schedule, readiness, and customer value remain aligned.
  • Engage directly with strategic customers and field teams to validate requirements, support product adoption, gather feedback, and influence future roadmap decisions.
  • Track customer engagements, adoption, pipeline, competitive activity, and key product metrics to measure progress and guide investment decisions.
  • Define go-to-market strategy and work with Marketing, Sales, and Applications Engineering on launches, campaigns, presentations, webinars, videos, and other product content.
  • Serve as a product and market subject-matter expert internally and externally, communicating product vision, differentiation, roadmap, and value proposition.

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Shape the product direction and priorities for Synopsys' In-System and Memory Test & Repair solutions.
  • Accelerate customer adoption by connecting market needs and customer use cases to differentiated product capabilities.
  • Strengthen Synopsys' leadership in In-System & manufacturing test through clear product strategy and execution focusing on Memory Test & Repair including Multi-die Test.
  • Improve alignment across Product Management, R&D, Product Engineering, Field Applications Engineering, Sales, and Marketing around roadmap priorities and customer outcomes.
  • Identify emerging market opportunities and competitive insights and turn those insights into actionable product plans.

What You'll Need:

  • Strong product-management experience in EDA, semiconductor design, semiconductor test, or a closely related technical market.
  • Deep understanding of DFT, ATPG, BIST, memory test and repair, and the broader in-system/manufacturing-test ecosystem.
  • 10+ years of relevant semiconductor or EDA experience, including significant experience in product management, product marketing, or a customer-facing technical leadership role.
  • Demonstrated ability to define product strategy, develop roadmaps, prioritize requirements, and drive cross-functional execution from concept through customer adoption.
  • Strong customer orientation, with the ability to uncover requirements, understand technical and business priorities, and convert customer feedback into scalable product decisions.
  • Excellent analytical, business, presentation, and written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • Strong collaboration and influence skills, with the ability to operate effectively in a global matrix environment and communicate with both technical teams and senior leadership.
  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or a related technical discipline; an MBA or PhD is a plus.

The Team You'll Be a Part Of:

You will join a highly skilled and collaborative product organization focused on strengthening Synopsys' leadership in SMS, DFT, BIST, ATPG, and memory test and repair. As a product-management leader, you will work closely with experts across R&D, Product Engineering, Field Applications Engineering, Sales, and Marketing to define product direction, deliver differentiated capabilities, and drive customer adoption and business growth.
