# Principal Site Reliability Engineer, Unix Systems

Job Description and Requirements 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 keeping production Unix/Linux infrastructure running when it matters most, and you know the difference between a system that looks healthy in a dashboard and one that actually performs under load when thousands of engineers are trying to compile code at 9am across three continents. You think in layers. When a job scheduler starts behaving strangely, you do not just restart it. You trace through logs, check kernel parameters, look at network saturation, talk to the team that changed their workload pattern last week, and find the actual cause. You are comfortable being the person who gets pulled into the hardest problems, the ones where five other people have already looked and walked away confused
