Define and document the comprehensive DFT architecture for multi-core So Cs, including strategies for hierarchical scan compression, Memory BIST (MBIST) for huge memory instances, functional BISTs, Analog components, logic BIST, high-speed I/O loopback, and JTAG/IEEE 1149.1/1500/1687/1838 networks.

Lead the complete DFT lifecycle from RTL planning to pattern handoff, own the schedule, resource allocation, and milestone tracking to ensure zero-defect delivery.

Deploy next-generation DFT methodologies and automation flows to maximize test coverage, while minimizing test time, pattern count, and silicon area overhead. Collaborate with post silicon team, Physical Design and Power Architects.

Support the post-silicon phase to achieve final Production Release Qualification (PRQ).

Mentor the technical staff, drive vendor EDA tool selection/qualification, and act as the primary technical liaison for DFT matters with stakeholders.

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

8 years of experience in SoC DFT architecture.

8 years of experience in DFT protocols including Scan Compression, MBIST, LBIST, JTAG (IEEE 1149.1), and iJTAG (IEEE 1687).

Experience with industry-standard EDA tools such as Siemens Tessent, Synopsys TestMAX/SMS, or Cadence Modus.

Experience leading multiple SoC projects from RTL architecture through to post-silicon validation and PRQ.

Experience scripting in Tcl, Python, or Perl for developing automation flows.
