Role Summary:
We are looking for a senior DFT skilled to lead DFT strategy, execution, and team delivery for complex SoCs/IPs. This role requires strong hands-on DFT expertise along with team leadership, technical ownership, and cross-functional coordination.
Key Responsibilities:
• Lead end-to-end DFT architecture, implementation, and signoff for SoC/IP programs
• Define and own DFT strategy: Scan architectures, JTAG / iJTAG, BSCAN, ATPG, MBIST
• Review and approve DFT plans, test architectures, and coverage targets
• Drive ATPG, MBIST, and DFT simulation flows and signoff quality
• Lead silicon bring-up, debug, and yield improvement from a DFT perspective
• Manage and mentor a team of DFT engineers (task allocation, reviews, technical guidance)
• Conduct design and DFT reviews with stakeholders (Design, PD, Validation, Product)
• Drive schedule, risk management, and delivery commitments for DFT milestones
• Establish and improve DFT methodologies, best practices, and automation
• Interface with customers/management on DFT status, issues, and plans

Required Technical Skills:




• Strong hands-on experience in:
• JTAG / iJTAG, BSCAN
• Scan architectures (full scan, compression, hierarchical DFT)
• ATPG (stuck-at, transition, at-speed)
• MBIST and memory test strategies
• DFT simulation and debug (RTL and gate-level)
• Solid understanding of SoC test architecture, test coverage, and test quality metrics
• Experience with industry DFT tools (Synopsys / Cadence / Siemens or equivalent)

Leadership / Management Requirements:
• Proven experience as a Team Lead / Technical Lead / DFT Manager
• Experience in:
• Leading and mentoring engineers
• Technical reviews and signoff ownership
• Planning and tracking deliverables across multiple projects
• Stakeholder management and cross-team coordination
• Ability to drive technical decisions and resolve complex DFT issues

Good to Have:
• Experience with low-power DFT, IJTAG networks, advanced test compression
• Experience han
