DFT Engineer

About the role

As a member of our team, you will be responsible for various aspects of DFT, including MBIST and scan insertion, ATPG, ATE pattern development, and yield analysis.

Responsibilities

• Work closely with the ATE engineer on yield improvement and analysis.
• Develop ATE patterns, manage the hand-off process, and perform silicon debugging.
• Participate in block and chip-level DFT implementation, developing and executing all related tasks.
• Work on DFT lint checking, MBIST architecture, logic insertion, and scan insertion using industry-standard tools.
• Perform ATPG and pattern simulation for both MBIST and scan.
• Collaborate with the design, verification, and implementation teams during the DFT design phase, and with the ATE and product development teams during silicon bring-up.
• Engage with various cross-functional team members, with opportunities to enhance our DFT design methodology.

Requirements

• BSEE with 12+ years of relevant engineering experience or MSEE with 8+ years of relevant engineering experience.
• Required experience in silicon bring-up and yield improvement.
