tes, further developing an excellent, experienced and established team that stretches from coast to coast.

You can be part of this growth.

The Job

Siemens EDA is looking for an experienced Place & Route user or Applications Engineer to play a critical role in our US-based field team. You will be a key technologist on the team, leading engagements with tier 1 customers, owning critical customer relationships, leading -- by example and through training -- our junior engineers, and ensuring technical and sales success. You will report to an experienced EDA manager in Canada who will be utterly dedicated to your success and the success of the team. Together with your colleagues and management team, you will be a key player in the success of our team, our business, and our customers.

You probably already know that an AE is the primary link between the customer, the sales team, and R&D, but this role will require even more of you. Aprisa is a rapidly growing product so there won't be an established lane for you, you'll be working closely with a highly dynamic team, innovating on business processes and filling holes where needed. You'll interact regularly with marketing, R&D, sales, technical support, customer experience, and many different customer stakeholders. It will be enormously challenging and enormously fun.

The job has flexible hours and will not require overtime. You will meet customer expectations by working as part of a team, not by being a hero. When you must occasionally shift your time to work with European or PacRim/Indian stakeholders, you'll be able to take corresponding time in lieu. The hours are flexible to accommodate family and personal commitments, but in return, you'll be a little more available to communications outside of normal working periods. Face-to-face time with our customers and the team will be important, but you'll be welcome to work some days at home if you'd like. You'll also need to travel to meet customers and colleagues at times. Some of this will be quite a lot of fun, other times it will be a lot of work.

Who You Are

• You have superb communication skills and a high emotional intelligence, with an ability to navigate different frames of reference among stakeholders, such as R&D or account teams, during engagements covering complex technical and business topics

• You are customer-focused but balance that with a keen awareness of how business ROI informs technical engagements; you may even have had to lobby your employer get additional resources to meet support standards or - with regret - to choose not to engage on some customer opportunities

• You own challenges, finding solutions even when it might mean leaving your lane; you can easily find examples of this when asked

• You are highly organized and value documenting and communicating what you do, what your colleagues are doing, and see project management as a critical skill in ensuring that complex customer interactions are well-executed

• You are flexible & eager to learn new things, but you're grounded in some experiences that match the challenging role you're about to take on

What You've Done

• You have at least a bachelor's degree in EE, CE, EP, CS, or VLSI and over five years industry experience

• You have a strong understanding of, and working experience with, Innovus, IC Compiler I/II, Aprisa, and/or Nitro-SoC

• You understand RTL to GDS flows at advanced nodes and have hands-on experience with IC design tape-outs or P&R evaluations/benchmarking, including meeting PPA and TTR goals

• Because of the above experience, it's not difficult for you to talk about floor planning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, signal & power integrity, and static timing processes. You can teach many of these topics without much preparation

• It goes without saying that you have expert-level scripting skills (TCL, command line *nix) and a good understanding of Verilog and UPF data formats
