Technical Product Management Architect – HAV AI Platform Strategy

Technical Product Management Architect – HAV AI Platform Strategy We Are:

At Synopsys, we drive the innovations that shape the way we live and connect. Our technology is central to the Era of Pervasive Intelligence, from self-driving cars to learning machines. We lead in chip design, verification, and IP integration, empowering the creation of high-performance silicon chips and software content. Join us to transform the future through continuous technological innovation.

Our Hardware-Assisted Verification (HAV) platforms—ZeBu and HAPS—enable system-level verification and validation so customers can validate functionality, performance, power, and software with high confidence. As systems grow in complexity, verification workflows must scale beyond traditional approaches. In this role, you will help make AI a core architectural capability of HAV platforms—improving ease of deployment, verification efficiency, accelerating debug, and enabling new levels of system insight.

You are an accomplished technical product leader with a passion for transforming verification through AI-centric architecture. Your expertise in hardware-assisted verification (HAV), especially emulation and prototyping, empowers you to identify where AI can drive step-change improvements. You think holistically about systems, data pipelines, and productization, ensuring AI is woven into the fabric of platforms—not simply added as an afterthought. You have a proven track record of translating strategic vision into actionable, scalable solutions that deliver measurable customer value.

You thrive in highly collaborative, cross-functional environments, partnering with R&D, product management, and go-to-market teams. Your communication skills enable you to align executives and engineering teams around complex roadmaps and tradeoffs, and your customer-centric mindset ensures that every AI investment is grounded in real-world productivity outcomes. You are comfortable operating at multiple levels—whether drafting detailed PRDs, architecting platform services, or presenting the platform vision to customers and partners.

As a trusted leader, you influence through clarity, pragmatism, and a relentless focus on delivering what matters most for customers and for Synopsys’ leadership in the market.

Above all, you are driven by impact—eager to shape the future of verification by embedding AI as a first-class capability, and excited to work at the intersection of hardware, software, and advanced data-driven technologies.

• Identifying, prioritizing, and owning AI-driven verification use cases that deliver breakthrough improvements in productivity, such as debug acceleration, coverage closure efficiency, and regression throughput.
• Defining the HAV AI platform strategy, focusing on ZeBu and HAPS, and building a multi-year roadmap for AI-native HAV capabilities with clear milestones and adoption targets.
• Specifying how AI/ML and agent-based systems will enhance test generation, debug, coverage, power, and performance workflows across the verification continuum.
• Driving platform-level PRDs that span hardware, software, data collection/telemetry, model lifecycle, and AI services to ensure seamless integration and operability.
• Partnering with R&D to architect data pipelines and execution models (host, embedded processor, FPGA-adjacent, transactor-based) to optimize performance, security, and scalability.
• Aligning the HAV AI strategy with adjacent solutions (debug, coverage, power, SLM, and post-silicon) to deliver end-to-end verification continuity and value.
• Collaborating with Synopsys.ai and Copilot teams to integrate agent experiences and define shared platform services for HAV workflows.
• Engaging lead customers for early validation of use cases, quantifying value, and driving adoption through feedback-driven iteration.
• Communicating the HAV AI platform vision in executive, partner, and customer forums to drive alignment and excitement across the ecosystem.

• Set the long-term direction for AI as a foundational capability within HAV, influencing the future of verification at Synopsys and across the…
