Job Description


We are looking for a highly experienced

DFT Lead Engineer

to take ownership of

Design-for-Test (DFT)

architecture, implementation, and sign-off for complex flat SoC designs. This role requires deep expertise in

PNR (Place-and-Route)

within Cadence flow.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead

    DFT

    strategy and implementation

    for flat SoC designs from RTL through tape-out.
  • Develop and integrate test architectures including scan insertion, MBIST, LBIST, JTAG, and boundary scan.
  • Work closely with the PNR team to ensure DFT structures are timing- and placement-aware.
  • Drive test mode constraint creation and ensure compatibility with functional modes.
  • Perform gate-level simulations for test logic verification.
  • Own ATPG pattern generation and coverage analysis for manufacturing test.
  • Lead reviews and mentor junior DFT engineers in best practices.
  • Qualifications

    Must-Have:

  • Bachelor s or Master s degree in Electrical/Electronics/Computer Engineering or related field.
  • 10 12 years

    of hands-on DFT experience in ASIC/SoC projects.
  • Proven PNR experience to handle flat SoC designs in Cadence flow
  • Strong knowledge of scan insertion, MBIST, LBIST, boundary scan, JTAG, and related standards (IEEE 1149.x).
  • Experience with Synopsys DFT Compiler, Tessent, or equivalent DFT tools.
  • Good understanding of STA and SDC constraints for test modes.
  • Familiarity with ECO flows in post-PNR stages for DFT fixes.
  • Nice-to-Have:

  • Automotive semiconductor industry experience
  • Proficiency in scripting (

    Tcl, Perl, Python

    ) for automation.
  • Low-power DFT experience with UPF/CPF.
  • Exposure to signal integrity considerations for test structures.
  • Prior technical leadership or mentoring experience.
  • Mock Interview
