Senior Design for Test Engineer

You will own end-to-end DFT implementation for AI accelerators, from micro-architecture definition through tapeout and first-silicon bring-up. You will implement and integrate DFT logic in RTL and third-party IP, validate it before silicon, guide physical implementation, and coordinate technical execution across engineering functions.

Responsibilities

• Micro-architect and implement DFT instrumentation logic, including scan insertion, compression, ATPG, memory BIST, boundary scan, IJTAG, and debug features.
• Integrate DFT IP into internal RTL and evaluate third-party DFT IP.
• Develop DFT verification plans and validate functionality through simulation and gate-level verification.
• Drive ATPG strategies and ensure DFx coverage targets are achieved before tapeout.
• Guide scan-chain partitioning, compression planning, test-clock architecture, power-aware testing, timing closure, and test-mode integration.
• Partner with RTL, verification, physical design, package and test engineering, firmware, system software, and silicon validation through bring-up.
• Use AI tools for DFT report review, ATPG and coverage analysis, regression triage, documentation, and workflow automation.

Requirements

• BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
• 8+ years of ASIC development experience.
• Extensive hands-on DFT implementation experience on complex SoCs with multiple successful production tapeouts.
• Deep knowledge of scan architectures, ATPG, memory BIST, boundary scan, IJTAG, EDT, fault models, and structural coverage analysis.
• Hands-on experience with Siemens Tessent DFT solutions, including SSN, EDT, MBIST, RTLpro, Scanpro, and Tessent Diagnosis.
• RTL design skills using Verilog or SystemVerilog.
• Experience with synthesis and gate-level verification.
• Scripting ability in Python, Tcl, Perl, or similar languages.
• Debugging skills across RTL, netlists, and silicon failure analysis.
• Ability to drive technical execution across cross-functional engineering teams.
• Current authorization to work in the United States.

Benefits

• Fully company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and dependents.
• Company-paid life and disability coverage, with voluntary additional coverage options.
• Supplemental hospital, critical illness, and accident coverage.
• Unlimited paid time off.
• 13 paid company holidays.
• Remote-first work culture.
• Company-provided computer and home-office setup.
• Equity.
• 401(k) with company matching from day one.
• H-1B visa transfer support for eligible candidates.
