Your Impact

As a Design for Test (DFT) Engineer, you will:

• Develop and implement DFT features to ensure high-quality, testable, and manufacturable designs.
• Contribute to the full product cycle, from pre-silicon design to post-silicon debug and production qualification.
• Work closely with chip architects, design engineers, and verification teams to define and optimize DFT strategies.
• Implement ATPG, scan compression, and memory BIST techniques to improve test coverage and efficiency.
• Lead debugging and root-cause analysis of silicon failures to improve yield and reliability.
• Establish DFT methodologies and best practices to enhance the efficiency of future designs.

Minimum Qualifications:

• B.Sc./M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• 7 years or more hands-on experience with PD and DFT with one or more features, such as scan insertion, BIST, or boundary scan.
• Proficiency in full product lifecycle development, from pre-silicon design to silicon bring-up and production qualification.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) methodologies.
• Strong ability to establish and refine DFT methodologies from design phase to high-volume production.
• Ability to quickly learn new concepts and adapt to evolving technologies.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Strong attention to detail and system-level understanding of networking and silicon solutions.
