You Are
You have built customer support organizations that function as strategic business capabilities, driving customer retention, product adoption, and revenue growth at enterprise scale. Throughout your career, you have understood that world-class support is not simply about resolving technical issues. It is about creating systematic approaches to customer success that deliver measurable business outcomes.
You bring a sophisticated understanding of how global service delivery intersects with product strategy, go-to-market execution, and customer lifecycle economics. You have designed operating models that balance technical depth with operational efficiency across geographies, product lines, and customer segments. Your approach to support is proactive and intelligence-driven, built on data systems and engagement frameworks that identify opportunities and risks before they surface as escalations.
You are equally adept at shaping executive strategy and building the operational infrastructure to execute it. You have led transformations that required establishing new service capabilities, redefining performance standards, and aligning cross-functional organizations around a unified customer experience vision. The teams you build scale effectively because you invest in knowledge systems, enablement platforms, and leadership development from the foundation. At Synopsys, you will define this function from the ground up, with executive mandate and the opportunity to establish what best-in-class customer support means for the EDA industry.
