About the role
We are seeking a motivated, proactive, and intellectually curious ASIC Engineering Technical Leader with focus in Design-for-Test. In this role, you will be leading development of DFT solutions for next-generation ASICs for multi-100G to 1.6T coherent optical communications products.
Responsibilities
- Lead implementation of SSN based test flow DFT architectures, including scan insertion, compression/decompression logic, memory BIST, and logic BIST, using Siemens Tessent tools for RTL and gate netlist DFT implementation.
- Generate and deliver ATPG test pattern for stuck-at, transition, cell aware and path delay fault models, drive scan-based diagnosis methodology for Silicon failure debug, and provide post-silicon testing and validation support.
- Responsible for evaluating design readiness for scan insertion through RTL and physical design Scan Design Rule Check (DRC) tools.
- Integration and verification of Design for Test (DFT) fabrics and IP within Subsystems.
- Perform simulation runs and debug for non-timing and back annotated timing (SDF) gate level simulations.
- Develop test scripts, automate processes, and analyze data using programming languages such as Python, Tcl, or C++.
Requirements
- Bachelors + 8 years of related experience, or Masters + 6 years of related experience, or PhD + 3 years of related experience.
- Prior experience working with ASICs.
- Prior experience in scan insertion and DFT setup, integration and validation.
- Prior experience implementing DFT architectures—including scan insertion, compression/decompression logic, and memory/logic BIST.
Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience working with ASICs.
- 10+ years of experience in scan insertion and DFT setup, integration and validation.
- 3+ years of experience in SSN.
- Experience driving ASIC DFT execution from concept through tapeout.
- Experience working with ATE testers and test teams.
- RTL experience to understand and debugging issues pertaining to DFT.
- Ability to solve complex problems including clock domain crossings.
- Familiar with advanced silicon process and technology nodes for high speed and low power consumption.
- Strong implementation or integration of design blocks using Verilog/System Verilog.
