Senior DFT Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Poland.

📋 Description

• Take ownership of Design-for-Test (DFT) for customer System-on-Chips (SoCs) from start to finish.

• Define and execute the DFT architecture.

• Manage scan and Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG), including the generation and validation of patterns.

• Implement memory Built-In Self-Test (BIST) and boundary scan techniques.

• Conduct pattern validation via gate-level simulations.

• Perform DFT Design Rule Check (DRC) analysis and troubleshoot test coverage.

• Enhance test coverage across necessary fault models.

• Oversee the entire DFT process from concept to tape-out and facilitate production test hand-off.

• Automate processes using Perl, Tcl, UNIX scripting, and possibly Python.

• Assist in the production test hand-off.

⛳️ Requirements

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from an accredited institution.

• At least 3 years of practical DFT experience is essential; senior profiles are preferred.

• Familiarity with scan, ATPG, at-speed testing, memory BIST, and I/O DFT methodologies.

• Experience with scan insertion and ATPG for stuck-at, transition-delay, bridging, and IDDQ fault models.

• Proven track record of improving test coverage.

• Experience conducting DFT DRC analysis and debugging coverage using Synopsys DFT Compiler, TestMAX (TetraMAX), SpyGlass DFT, or similar Siemens (Mentor) Tessent tools.

• Proficient with Tessent MBIST.

• Solid understanding of JTAG IEEE 1149.1, IEEE 1149.6, and IEEE 1500 (formerly P1500).

• Hands-on experience in designing and implementing DFT features.

• Ownership of the complete DFT flow from conceptualization to tape-out and production.

• Experience in setting up and executing gate-level simulations for pattern validation.

• Familiarity with formal equivalence checking.

• Proficient in Perl, Tcl, and UNIX scripting for automating flows.

• Nice to have: broader experience with Siemens Tessent tools, including ScanPro, TestKompress, and LBIST.

• Nice to have: advanced-node experience at 7nm and smaller.

• Nice to have: Python experience for flow automation.

🏝️ Benefits

• Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.

• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.

• Retirement savings plan with company match.

• Opportunities for professional development and training.

• Flexible work hours and remote work options.
