Role Overview
As a DFT Architect/Manager/Sr. Manager at Velaura AI, you will lead the definition, implementation, and execution of Design-for-Test strategies for next-generation AI and high-performance computing silicon. You will be responsible for driving test architecture, methodology, and implementation across complex ASIC/SoC designs, ensuring high test quality, manufacturability, reliability, and production readiness. You will work closely with architecture, RTL, verification, physical design, STA, validation, product engineering, and manufacturing teams to integrate robust DFT features into the silicon platform. This is a highly visible technical and leadership role where you will influence DFT architecture, lead complex execution across teams, drive methodology improvements, mentor engineers, and support successful silicon bring-up, yield ramp, and production quality.

Responsibilities
● Define and drive DFT architecture, strategy, and methodology for complex ASIC/SoC designs targeting AI and high-performance compute applications.




● Lead the planning and implementation of DFT features including scan insertion, compression, ATPG, MBIST, LBIST, boundary scan, JTAG, IJTAG, test access
mechanisms, and fault simulation.
● Own end-to-end DFT execution from architecture definition through RTL integration, implementation support, verification, pattern generation, sign-off, silicon bring-up, and production ramp.
● Collaborate with architecture, RTL, verification, physical design, STA, validation, test, product engineering, and manufacturing teams to ensure DFT requirements are integrated early and executed successfully.
● Develop comprehensive test plans to optimize fault coverage, reduce test cost, improve test quality, and ensure manufacturability.
● Drive ATPG pattern generation, coverage analysis, fault grading, diagnosis, and pattern validation across block, subsystem, and chip levels.
● Define and implement memory test strategies including MBIST architecture,
