At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology.

The Jasper engineering team is seeking a Product Engineer to help drive the industry’s leading formal verification tool. The Product Engineer (PE) bridges the gap between customers, R&D, and field Application Engineers (AEs). In this highly creative and innovative role, they are responsible for ensuring that existing flows and apps meet the ongoing needs of our customers, while also developing flows and requirements to solve new verification challenges. The PE will collaborate closely with both customers and R&D to drive specification, implementation, and evaluation/benchmarking of the new solutions.
