Job Description:

Broadcom is seeking candidates for a Staff DFT engineer position. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and implementing DFx (Design for Test/debug & manufacturability) solutions for Digital, mixed signal IPs. Candidate will also drive/push state of the art in the areas of testability, debug to enable low DPPM DFx solutions while optimizing the cost for test.

Responsibilities

  • Own IP DFT architecture, implementation, verification, signoff STA constraints for DFT

  • Optimize DFT architecture for test cost, test power and physical design constraints

  • Deliver optimal retargetable ATPG patterns for usage across business units

  • Collaborate with front-end and backend engineers to implement optimal DFx solutions

  • Support chip teams on IP DFT integration, pattern verification and ATE bring-up

  • Participate in silicon bring-up, characterization, and yield recovery

Requirements

  • Knowledge of Testability techniques and features (SCAN, Built-in-Self-Tests, boundary scan.) covering digital logic, embedded memories and Serdes PHY/IO’s

  • Scan architectural trade-off, coverage analysis, ATPG pattern generation and verification

  • Experience in implementation of MBIST for memories and knowledge of repair schemes, algorithms

  • Well versed in JTAG standards (1149.1 and 1149.6, 1687) and boundary scan

  • Strong Pre/Post Silicon debugging, analytical and independent problem solving ability

  • Strong knowledge of digital design and logical equivalence checking

  • Experience with Gate level simulations and debug with industry simulator tools

  • Experience in developing STA constraints for DFT logic/modes and working knowledge of primetime

  • Post silicon experience on pattern bring-up, debug and silicon characterization etc

  • Working knowledge of TCL, perl and shell scripting

  • Hands on experience with Mentor/Siemens DFT Tessent tool suite for DFT insertion is desirable

  • Working knowledge of SERDES, Analog /mixed-signal DFT solutions (like IOBIST, AC boundary scan) is a plus

  • Must be a team player with good verbal and written communication skills.

  • Must be a self-driven engineer with good planning and organizing skills to deliver high quality output in a timely manner.

  • Experience : Bachelors in Electrical or Computer Science Engineering required with a minimum of 8 years of relevant industry experience or a Master’s Degree with a minimum of 6 years of relevant industry experience
