Company Overview
NXP CAEN is seeking a Senior DfT Engineer to contribute to the design and implementation of Design-for-Test (DFT) solutions for complex System-on-Chip (SoC) products for Automotive Market, ensuring high test coverage and effective manufacturing test flows.

Your Responsibilities:
• Develop and implement DFT architectures and methodologies for digital and mixed-signal IPs and SoCs, including scan, JTAG, memory BIST, and logic BIST.
• Perform DFT insertion and verification using industry-standard EDA tools.
• Generate test patterns (e.g., ATPG, BIST patterns) and ensure their effectiveness in achieving target fault coverage.
• Analyze test coverage reports and work with design teams to identify and resolve DFT-related design issues.
• Collaborate with verification and test engineering teams to define and validate manufacturing test plans.




• Debug silicon test failures and provide support for production ramp-up.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of DFT methodologies and flows.
• Document DFT specifications, implementation details, and test plans.

Your Profile:
• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering.
• Proven experience (7+ years) in DFT design and verification for complex SoCs.
• Strong understanding of various DFT techniques (Scan, JTAG, MBIST, LBIST, Boundary Scan).
• Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools for DFT insertion, ATPG, and fault simulation (e.g., Tessent, Synopsys DFT Compiler, Cadence Modus, Synopsys Z01X).
• Solid understanding of digital design principles and ASIC/SoC design flow.
• Experience with Security and Safety is a plus.
• Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Tcl, Python, Perl) for automation.
• Familiarity with semiconductor manufacturing test processes is a plus.
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment.
• Fluency in English is required.
