Synopsys have a tool that allows chip vendors to emulate their asics in multiple FPGAs... maybe it is something to do with this.

An emulation engg does ASIC prototyping on emulator which contains multiple FPGAs, which enables fast and accurate system modeling and verification.

Hi Tricky
how about the opportunities for emulation engineer...

 

[TrickyDicky]

I have no idea, I dont work in the field. Why not contact the company?
Im pretty sure it would be similar to many FPGA engineering roles, if not harder as you need some ASIC knowledge also.
