Principal Digital DFT Engineer
Role Summary
The Principal Digital DFT Engineer is responsible for architecting, implementing, and verifying advanced DFT solutions for complex digital ASICs and SoCs. This position emphasizes direct technical execution, deep problem-solving, and ownership of DFT flows for robust testability and manufacturing yield.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and drive all aspects of DFT architecture, definition, and implementation for digital chips, including scan insertion, ATPG, boundary scan, MBIST, logic BIST, JTAG and test compression techniques.
- Hands-on execution with EDA tools for scan synthesis, test pattern generation, fault simulation, and DFT rule checks.
- Create and validate test plans targeting high coverage for stuck-at, transition, and critical path faults.
- Integrate DFT with RTL and physical design teams; resolve complex trade-offs impacting fault coverage, PPA, or manuf...
