DFT Design-For-Test Engineer

We are looking for an innovative, Design For Test (DFT) Engineers to be a part of the European Test Solutions Team. The Test Group is a critical part of delivering a complete end-to-end solution to fulfill the customer needs. If you are an enthusiastic, motivated engineer and can connect with Engineering, Sales/Account Teams, and Customers - You belong with us!


The Applications Engineer works in a project-oriented environment to deliver DFT Solutions ranging from Integration to Silicon Bring-up for customers designing digital ICs of varying complexity. They interact with the customers to assess their methodologies and flows, gather requirements and propose solutions.

The Applications Engineer provides technical support to ensure customer success and satisfaction. Win new customers through product demonstrations, evaluations, and comparative benchmarking. Support customers through technical problem resolution, training and account management.

The Applications Engineer is also responsible for working with Solution Architects to develop and productize the next gen Test Technologies. The role would also involve prototyping new methodologies, review gathered data, identify the viability of the technology and present the findings.

Responsibilities include the following:
Test methodology for design rule checking during RTL coding stages
Consultation for Test solutions during design planning
DFT implementation and validation: scan, compression, core wrapping, logic & memory Built-In Self-Test (BIST), test points, etc.
Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG), advanced fault models (transition delay, cell-aware, bridging, etc.) and pattern validation
Participation in customer’s design and flow reviews
Drive, prototype & develop new design for Test methodologies

Key Qualifications
Technical background in DFT, ATPG, and Diagnostics
Hands-on experience with all phases of the IC Design flow
Background in Automotive Safety, System-level Test, and Security is a plus
Experience with RTL Coding, DFT Insertion, ATPG, Validation, Pattern generation & Silicon Bring up
Understanding of DFT concepts: scan, LBIST, MBIST
Excellent soft skills
