We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior DFT (Design for Test) Engineer to join our growing ASIC team. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of next-generation products in a dynamic and collaborative environment. Our ASIC team oversees the entire silicon flow, from specification and design to verification, implementation, ATE testing, and qualification. As part of a small, versatile team, you will have the opportunity to engage in all aspects of delivering successful products to production.
Responsibilities
- Define and implement DFT strategies at the chip, subsystem, and IP levels, balancing structural and functional methods while making pragmatic trade-offs.
- Utilize Tessent DFT tool flows for inserting MBIST, EDT, SSN, scan controls via IJTAG, and IP test using ICL/PDL in both flat and hierarchical designs.
- Verify DFT structures and debug related issues to ensure robust design implementation.
- Support DFT processes through implementation and sign-off, including generating timing constraints and resolving timing, power, and formal equivalence issues.
Qualifications
- A degree in electronic engineering, computer science, or a related discipline plus at least 5 years industry experience in DFT Engineering.
- Proven experience with IC development flows.
- Proficiency with Tessent DFT tools.
- Strong understanding of complex IP issues related to DFT, including on-chip clocking.
- Hands-on experience in ATPG, MBIST, and simulation debugging, including UPF-related issues.
- Proficiency in scripting, particularly TCL.
If you are a dedicated professional with a passion for DFT engineering and a desire to contribute to cutting-edge ASIC development, please contact Ane @ IC Resources with your CV and a time for an initial call. Priority will be given to applications from within the UK followed by EU.
