About the job

Verifies DFT architectures for custom ASICs and SoCs, driving pre-silicon verification closure and supporting silicon test bring-up.

What you'll do

  • Define and execute DFT verification plans for scan, ATPG, BIST, JTAG, and boundary scan across IP, sub-system, and SoC levels.
  • Develop UVM- and C/C++-based testbenches, drive coverage and verification closure, and debug DFT failures.
  • Validate ATPG flows and use formal verification and emulation to support DFT bring-up and pre-/post-silicon correlation.

What they ask for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, a relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 8+ years of hands-on ASIC design verification experience using SystemVerilog and UVM-based methodologies.
  • 8+ years of DFT verification experience, including scan insertion, ATPG pattern validation, BIST verification, and JTAG/IEEE 1149.1 test access mechanisms.
  • Experience with DFT EDA tools, verification closure, and scripting in Python, Tcl, Perl, or Shell.

Nice to have

  • DFT verification experience with AI/ML accelerator or networking ASICs in data center environments.
  • Experience verifying PCIe, HBM, DDR, or Ethernet SerDes DFT structures, or using emulation platforms.

Pay

$178,000/year to $250,000/year USD base salary; bonus and equity also stated, amounts unspecified.

Tools

SystemVerilog, UVM, C/C++, Python, Tcl, Perl, Shell, IEEE 1149.1
