Envision Employment Solutions is currently looking for a Senior DFT Engineer for one of our partners, an IT Services and IT Consulting company.
THE ROLE
A chip that can't be tested can't ship. You'll own design for test on large, complex SoCs, making sure every block can be scanned, patterned and diagnosed, and that test coverage stays high without costing the design its timing or area budget.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Implement DFT in line with established test methodology on advanced process nodes
Perform top and block level DFT insertion: scan compression, JTAG and IJTAG, MBIST and LBIST
Generate ATPG patterns, and run pattern validation and simulation
Work closely with physical design to resolve DFT timing constraints and issues
Verify DFT logic and its interfaces with other IPs, and debug timing simulation issues
Improve test coverage and pattern efficiency, and handle hierarchical retargeting
Support silicon bring up, diagnosis and failure analysis
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
7+ years of hands on DFT experience on large, complex SoCs
Strong knowledge of JTAG, ATPG, scan compression, IEEE 1500, MBIST and LBIST
Experience with major EDA tools such as Synopsys DFT Compiler, TetraMAX, VCS, Siemens Tessent or Cadence Modus
Experience in RTL simulation, synthesis, lint, CDC, RDC and STA is a plus
Scripting skills in Perl, Tcl and Python
Strong analytical and problem solving skills
YOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU
You see test coverage as a quality metric, not a checkbox
You enjoy working across design, backend and silicon teams
You like chasing a failing pattern until you find the real cause
You want to see your work pay off in the lab during bring up
You're always looking for a smarter way to compress patterns
