DFT Engineer

Job Description

Exciting opportunity to be a part of XNE DFT team.The Design-for-Test (DFT) Implementation Engineer is a challenging and cutting-edge position working as part of a team to implement Design-for-Test capabilities on state-of-the-art silicon designs. You will be working with both external tier-1 customers and internal product design teams during their ASIC design cycle as they develop System-on-a-Chip (SoC) solutions utilizing CMOS cell-based ASIC technologies, along with integrated high-performance SerDes functions, embedded microprocessors, and high speed memory interface IP. You will be responsible for development of the SoC Test Implementation plan describing the strategies to address the DFT requirements for the design, planning of the hierarchical test architecture, insertion of DFT structures, generation, simulation, and validation of test patterns for both DFT logic verification and for HVM ATE testing of the design, supporting the Static Timing Analysis (STA) team for the timing closure for the DFT modes of the design, and for supporting the Test Engineering team during silicon bring-up and New Product Introduction (NPI). You will also work closely with internal Test Methodology team and IP development teams.
