Job Title

DFT Engineer

Role Summary

Work on design-for-test (DFT) implementation and validation for SoC/ASIC projects, focusing on ATPG, MBIST, IO testing, and clock DFT. The role supports silicon test programs and partners with RTL designers and verification teams to ensure testability and diagnostic coverage.

Experience Level

Mid-level. The posting specifies 4+ years of hands-on DFT/ATPG experience.

Responsibilities

Core responsibilities include designing and validating test infrastructure and patterns for digital ASIC/SoC designs.

  • Develop and implement DFT strategies and scan insertion for SoC/ASIC designs.
  • Generate, analyze, and debug ATPG test patterns and test coverage issues.
  • Design and validate MBIST memory-test architectures and diagnostics.
  • Implement IO test methodologies for interface and pin-level validation.
  • Apply clock DFT and clock-domain verification techniques to ensure testability.
  • Work with RTL designers and verification teams to resolve testability and failure analysis issues.
  • Use industry-standard DFT/ATPG EDA tools to deliver test solutions for silicon bring-up.

Requirements

Essential skills and experience required for the role.

  • 4+ years of hands-on DFT and ATPG experience for SoC or ASIC designs.
  • Strong understanding of DFT fundamentals: controllability, observability, and scan-based testing.
  • Proven expertise in ATPG pattern generation, analysis, and debug.
  • Experience with MBIST and memory-test architectures and diagnostics.
  • Knowledge of IO test methodologies for interface and pin-level validation.
  • Solid understanding of clock DFT and clock verification concepts.
  • Strong grasp of digital design and RTL fundamentals.
  • Experience with industry-standard DFT/ATPG EDA tools and ability to work in fast-paced semiconductor programs.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.

Education Requirements

BE (Bachelor of Engineering) is listed. No other degrees, fields of study, certifications, or equivalent-experience language were specified in the posting.
