You Are You have spent years turning ambiguity into action, and you know the difference between a program that runs itself and one that needs constant rescue. The work that excites you is not the big announcement, it is the mechanism behind it: the review that surfaces the right decision, the tracker that keeps ten leaders aligned, the agenda that turns a two-hour meeting into a thirty-minute one with clear next steps. You are the person who walks into a room where three teams think they are aligned and quietly realizes they are not, then fixes it without drama. You do not need perfect information to move. You ask the right questions, map what matters, and build the structure that lets other people do their best work. When a senior leader says "we need to get our arms around this," you are already drafting the plan. You have run operating rhythms before, not just participated in them. You know what makes a quarterly business review actually useful versus performative. You are comfortable holding a VP to a deadline and equally comfortable absorbing the work no one else sees. At Synopsys, you will work directly with the Chief IP Development Office and own the programs that keep two major engineering organizations moving forward.

Own the full lifecycle of strategic programs across IPG and SSG, from scoping and planning through execution and closure, including tracking milestones, dependencies, and commitments across leadership Run the operating rhythm of the Executive Office: strategic account reviews, staff meetings, all-hands forums, quarterly business reviews, and leadership check-ins, including agenda design, pre-reads, minutes, action tracking, and follow-up Build and maintain dashboards, status reports, and executive summaries that leadership uses to track progress and make decisions, working across teams to ensure consistency and accuracy Prepare the CIDO and leadership team for reviews and planning cycles by assembling agendas, data, and materials that are clear, accurate, and ready to use Drive cross-functional action items to closure, coordinating across engineering, product management, finance, and HR to keep commitments on track Improve how the office operates by refining existing mechanisms and standing up new ones as the organization scales Partner with the CIDO's Executive Assistant on scheduling, logistics, and day-to-day coordination for leadership meetings, off-sites, and large events across multiple time zones The Impact You Will Have Leadership decisions move faster and with better information because the reviews you run surface the right data at the right time Cross-organizational commitments close on schedule because you track them, follow up, and hold owners accountable without letting things slip Senior leaders spend less time chasing status and more time on strategy because the reporting you build is consistent, accurate, and easy to consume The Executive Office becomes a model for how an engineering organization should operate, with mechanisms that scale as IPG and SSG grow Programs that would otherwise stall in ambiguity move forward because you bring structure, clarity, and
