Every listing links straight to the employer, so you apply on their own board rather than through an intermediary."},{"title":"What these roles pay","text":"8 of these Synopsys IC Validator jobs state pay directly. Across them the middle half of the market sits between $166K and $260K a year, with a median of $250K. Figures are gross annual amounts converted to US dollars, so roles in different currencies stay comparable."},{"title":"Where the work is","text":"The largest concentrations of these roles are Vietnam (2), Austria (1), and Italy (1). 14% offer a hybrid arrangement, while the rest expect you on site."},{"title":"Who is hiring","text":"The employers with the most open Synopsys IC Validator jobs right now are Synopsys (7), SpaceX (3), UST (2), Celero Communications (2), Intel (2), and Cyient (1). Each company page on Alion carries its size, funding stage, tech stack and every other position it has open, so you can judge the employer before you spend an evening on the application."},{"title":"What employers ask for","text":"Reading across the current listings, the tools that come up most often are Synopsys IC Validator (28), Python (22), Siemens Calibre (17), Perl (16), Synopsys PrimeTime (10), Cadence Pegasus (10), Synopsys StarRC (9), and Synopsys Fusion Compiler (8). The counts are how many of these openings name each one, which is a better guide to what is actually being hired for than a generic skills list."},{"title":"Relocation, visas and equity","text":"Of the current Synopsys IC Validator jobs, 5 include equity. These are filters on the list above, so you can narrow it to the ones that make a move possible for you."}],"faq":[{"question":"How many Synopsys IC Validator jobs are open right now?","answer":"There are 28 open Synopsys IC Validator jobs on Alion from 17 companies. The list was last refreshed on October 17, 2026."},{"question":"Are all of these Synopsys IC Validator jobs still being filled?","answer":"Probably not all of them. 1 of the 28 shows the marks Alion reads as a likely inactive posting: open far longer than employers usually take to fill such a role, reposted several times, or sitting on a board that rarely closes anything. They stay listed with a warning, and the list can hide them with one switch."},{"question":"What do Synopsys IC Validator jobs pay?","answer":"The median is $250K a year, and the middle half of the market falls between $166K and $260K. This is based on the 8 listings that state pay."},{"question":"Are any of these roles remote?","answer":"1 of the 28 listings (4%) are fully remote, and you can filter the list down to them in one click."},{"question":"Which companies are hiring?","answer":"The most active employers right now are Synopsys, SpaceX, UST, Celero Communications, Intel, and Cyient.
