Level - Senior

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly skilled IP DFT Verification Engineer to join our engineering team at our Bangalore Development Center. In this role, you will be responsible for implementing and verifying Design for Test (DFT) methodologies primarily for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), Double Data Rate (DDR), and SerDes designs.

Experience Level

This position requires 8+ years of relevant industry experience with a Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Electronic, or Computer Engineering, or 6+ years of relevant experience with a Master's degree in the same fields.

Key Responsibilities

  • Implement and verify DFT methodologies for HBM, DDR, and SerDes designs.
  • Collaborate with design and architecture teams to establish critical testability requirements.
  • Utilize advanced simulation tools to conduct thorough verification of DFT implementations.
  • Analyze DFT-related data for continuous design enhancements.
  • Document verification processes and results for knowledge sharing among the team.
  • Stay updated on industry trends to foster innovation within the team.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams for test vector generation and debugging.
  • Assist with silicon failure analysis and diagnostics during the silicon bring-up phase.
  • Interface with customers, physical design, and test engineering teams globally.
  • Develop innovative DFT solutions to address testability challenges in 3nm IPs and beyond.
  • Automate DFT and test vector generation flows.

Required Skills and Experience

The ideal candidate should have a strong background in DFT, proven experience in DFT verification especially with HBM, DDR, and SerDes IPs, and familiarity with methodologies including scan, Built-In Self-Test (BIST), and ATPG. Proficiency in simulation tools and scripting languages like Perl, Python, or TCL is essential, along with excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Electronic, or Computer Engineering with at least 8 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree in the same fields with at least 6 years of experience.
