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.\nYou Are\nYou have spent years in the semiconductor ecosystem and understand that foundries are not just fabrication partners, they are the linchpin of every IP roadmap and customer commitment. You know the difference between a FinFET process node on a slide deck and what actually tapes out with GAA, and you have built the relationships that let you get the real answer.\nYou are equally comfortable sitting with a foundry's business development team discussing their 3nm GAA roadmap as you are translating that conversation into a dashboard that product managers can use to make IP decisions. When a sales team asks which foundry technology to position for an automotive customer or when R&D needs a test chip slot for IP, you already have the answer or know exactly who to call. You see patterns across foundries, customers, and IP providers, and you use that perspective to guide strategy. At Synopsys, you will be the bridge between our foundry partners and every team that depends on them.\nWhat You'll Be Doing\nServe as the primary contact for sales and product teams on foundry technology availability, roadmaps, and FinFET to GAA transitions across foundry partners\nBuild and maintain deep relationships with foundry business development teams to get fast answers, coordinate meetings, and stay ahead of roadmap shifts\nCollect, assess, and distribute foundry intelligence on process roadmaps and technology changes that impact Synopsys IP schedules and competitive positioning against others IP companies\nMaintain a live dashboard of foundry technology roadmaps, Synopsys IP availability by node, and foundry-specific presentation materials\nCoordinate test chip planning with foundries for IP validation, aligning tape-outs with IP roadmaps and customer demand\nAnalyze customer demand and competitive IP landscape to provide feedback to foundries on application priorities across HPC, AI, IoT, automotive, and consumer segments\nPresent foundry technology strategy, FinFET to GAA transitions, and IP ecosystem updates to internal teams and represent Synopsys at foundry seminars\nThe Impact You Will Have\nEnable faster product decisions by giving teams real-time visibility into foundry technology roadmaps and GAA readiness\nStrengthen Synopsys relationships with foundries by being a trusted business development contact\nAccelerate sales cycles by equipping account teams with the right foundry technology positioning for each customer's IP needs\nReduce schedule risk by surfacing foundry process changes and technology migrations early enough for IP teams to adjust roadmaps\nInfluence foundry priorities by channeling clear feedback on where customers are heading and what technologies matter most for competitive IP positioning\nImprove internal alignment by creating a single source of truth on foundry technology trends and IP ecosystem dynamics\nWhat You'll Need\nExperience in the semiconductor industry with direct exposure to foundry technology operations, business development, or IP ecosystem management\nAt least 15 years in product marketing, product management, or business development, ideally interfacing with foundries or IP companies\nDeep technical knowledge of foundry technology, you can explain the differences between FinFET and GAA, between process nodes, and how they impact IP design\nUnderstanding of the IP landscape and competitive positioning across providers\nExisting relationships with foundry business development teams at leading foundries is a strong plus\nBachelor's degree in Engineering required, graduate degree in Electrical Engineering preferred\nFluency in English and proficiency with Excel and PowerPoint\nWho You Are\nYou can walk into a meeting with a foundry's business development team and walk out with clarity on their GAA timeline, their top customers, and how it affects your IP roadmap\nYou see the IP ecosystem as a competitive landscape and can position Synopsys IP based on foundry technology readiness\nYou are organized enough to manage dashboards tracking multiple foundries, process nodes, and IP product lines without losing track of what matters\nYou can create a presentation explaining FinFET to GAA transitions for customers and another breaking down foundry strategy for executives, and both will be clear\nYou push back when a foundry gives you a vague answer or when an internal team asks for positioning without enough context\nPosition may be based in Korea or Taiwan\nAt Synopsys, we want talented people of every background to feel valued and supported to do their best work. Synopsys considers all applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, military veteran status, or disability.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5181,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":15,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Taiwan","iso":"TW","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["EDA Software","Application Security","Semiconductor IP & Chip Design Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T01:53:52Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-09-11T04:54:00Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-09-14T07:54:07Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-09-14T13:55:24Z"},{"event":"restore","at":"2026-09-14T19:31:41Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":22,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.773,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":55,"expected_fill_days":17,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:tail","crowd:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/synopsys-product-management-director-18242","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/synopsys-product-management-director-18242.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T23:54:44Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5436,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":39954},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=39954"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsynopsys-product-management-director-18242"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsynopsys-product-management-director-18242"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsynopsys-product-management-director-18242"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/synopsys-product-management-director-18242\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsynopsys-product-management-director-18242"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":695447}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"synopsys.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":695447},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
