This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior DFT Engineer based in India.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of Design-for-Test (DFT) implementation and verification for advanced SoC and ASIC designs.
You’ll work on complex semiconductor architectures where test coverage, performance, power, and test time are critical design considerations.
The role spans scan, ATPG, memory test, boundary scan, IJTAG, timing, verification, and silicon debug.
You’ll collaborate closely with RTL, verification, physical design, and test engineering teams to solve challenging technical problems.
The environment is fast-paced, highly technical, and focused on shipping real silicon rather than lengthy processes or bureaucracy.
You’ll have meaningful ownership and the opportunity to contribute to products supporting the rapidly expanding AI and high-performance computing infrastructure market.

• Develop and implement DFT architectures for advanced SoC designs, including scan insertion, scan compression, and hierarchical DFT.
• Generate, optimize, and debug ATPG patterns across fault models such as stuck-at, transition, and path-delay faults, while driving high test coverage and efficient test execution.
• Design, integrate, and verify MBIST controllers, memory repair mechanisms such as BISR, and comprehensive memory test strategies.
• Implement and verify Boundary Scan (BSCAN), JTAG, and IJTAG/IEEE 1687 infrastructure.
• Perform DFT static timing analysis, develop timing constraints, and collaborate with physical design teams to achieve timing closure.
• Execute DFT verification through pre-silicon simulation, gate-level simulation (GLS), and related validation activities.
• Support silicon bring-up, ATE pattern validation, post-silicon debug, and root-cause analysis of DFT-related issues.
• Analyze test coverage and quality metrics, identify gaps, and implement improvements to strengthen overall test effectiveness.
• Work cross-functionally with RTL, verification, physical design, and test engineering teams to troubleshoot and resolve complex DFT challenges.
• Develop scripting and automation solutions to improve DFT implementation, verification, pattern generation, and debug workflows.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• 4–7 years of hands-on DFT experience within SoC or ASIC development environments.
• Strong practical knowledge of DFT methodologies, including ATPG, scan compression, MBIST, LBIST, BSCAN, JTAG, and IJTAG.
• Experience with industry-standard DFT insertion, ATPG, pattern-generation, verification, and simulation tools.
• Demonstrated experience with silicon bring-up, ATE pattern validation, and post-silicon debug.
• Strong understanding of DFT verification and gate-level simulation workflows.
• Experience with DFT static timing analysis, constraint development, and timing closure is highly valuable.
• Proficiency in scripting and automation using languages such as Python, Tcl, and/or Perl.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose complex technical issues and drive them to resolution.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across multidisciplinary engineering teams while maintaining high technical standards.
• A strong ownership mindset, bias for action, and willingness to work in a fast-moving engineering environment.

Benefits:

• Competitive compensation aligned with experience and technical expertise.
• Fully remote work option within India.
• Opportunity to work on advanced semiconductor technology supporting AI and high-performance computing infrastructure.
• Significant technical ownership and exposure to complex SoC/ASIC design challenges.
• Collaboration with experienced semiconductor engineering professionals across global teams.
• Opportunity to contribute to real silicon products and consequential engineering projects.
• Fast-paced environment with minimal bureaucracy and strong emphasis on technical excellence and execution.
• Potential for professional growth through challenging projects and deep technical learning.
