DFT Engineer Architect Manager Senior Manager

You will lead Design-for-Test architecture, methodology, implementation, verification, and sign-off for complex ASIC and SoC designs. You will drive test planning, pattern generation, coverage closure, memory and logic BIST strategies, silicon bring-up, yield analysis, and production test support. You will also improve DFT flows and automation, resolve implementation issues, and mentor engineers.

Responsibilities

• Define and drive DFT architecture, strategy, and methodology for complex ASIC and SoC designs
• Lead the planning and implementation of scan insertion, compression, ATPG, MBIST, LBIST, boundary scan, JTAG, IJTAG, test access mechanisms, and fault simulation
• Own end-to-end DFT execution from architecture definition through production ramp
• Develop test plans that optimize fault coverage, test cost, test quality, and manufacturability
• Drive ATPG pattern generation, coverage analysis, fault grading, diagnosis, and pattern validation
• Define and implement memory test strategies, repair analysis, redundancy handling, and memory test integration
• Lead DFT verification, test-mode validation, and pattern verification
• Resolve DFT-related timing, congestion, test-mode constraint, scan reordering, and implementation closure issues
• Support post-silicon debug, yield analysis, failure diagnosis, production test correlation, and field failure analysis
• Establish DFT quality metrics, sign-off criteria, coverage targets, and execution checkpoints
• Improve DFT tools, flows, automation, and methodologies
• Lead and mentor DFT engineers

Requirements
