Position Overview :

We are looking for experienced DFT Engineers / Senior DFT Engineers / DFT Managers with 3 - 15 years of experience in the Design-for-Test (DFT) domain.

The ideal candidate should have a strong understanding of DFT concepts and hands-on experience in at least one or more areas such as BSCAN, MBIST, Scan, ATPG, and Simulation. The role involves DFT implementation, simulation, debugging, coverage improvement, cross-functional collaboration, and mentoring of DFT engineers.

Key Responsibilities :

- Develop a clear understanding of BSCAN, MBIST, Scan, ATPG, and simulation concepts.
- Work on at least one of the following : MBIST Insertion, Scan Insertion, ATPG Pattern Generation and Simulation, MBIST and BSCAN Simulation.
- Work with industry-standard DFT tools such as Cadence, Siemens Tessent, and Synopsys.
- Perform Zero Delay and SDF Timing Simulations.
- Debug simulation issues using GUI-based industry-standard simulators such as VCS, NCSim, or Xcelium.
- Work with fault models including Stuck-at Fault, Transition Delay Fault (TDF), and IDDQ.
- Implement techniques to improve scan test coverage.
- Work on SoC-level DFT, including OCC / OPCG insertion, EDT / Compression Logic insertion, and Clock module handling for scan purposes.




- Support post-silicon bring-up and production activities.
- Work on tester debug activities, including analysis of shmoo plots and graphs.
- Provide test-mode timing constraints to STA and Physical Design (PD) teams.
- Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and customer teams.
- Lead, guide, and mentor junior/mid-level DFT engineers.
- Participate in debugging and resolution of complex DFT issues.

Required Skills :

- 3 - 15 years of hands-on experience in DFT / VLSI.
- Strong understanding of BSCAN, MBIST, SCAN, ATPG, and Simulation concepts.
- Hands-on experience in at least one major DFT area such as MBIST, Scan Insertion, ATPG, or DFT Simulation.
- Experience with one or more industry-standard DFT tools : Cadence, Siemens Tessent, and Synopsys.
- Experience with simulators such as VCS, NCSim, or Xcelium.
- Positive debugging and problem-solving skills.
- Understanding of fault models and test coverage improvement techniques.
- Experience with SoC-level DFT is preferred.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

Education :

- B.E./B.Tech/M.E./M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, VLSI, or a related engineering discipline preferred.
