• Strong fundamental knowledge of DFT techniques include JTAG, ATPG, test pattern translation, yield learning, logic diagnosis, scan compression, IEEE 1500 Standard, MBIST and LBIST
• Experience generating test patterns and analyzing and debugging test failures
• Experience with RTL simulation, synthesis and back end implementation flows
• Experience defining and implementing stuck-at and at-speed techniques
• Experience running test compression flow
• Experience trading off test options with product performance and schedule requirements
• Experience creating and releasing full test programs for device screening
• Test optimization
• Resolve design and flow issues related to DFT, identify potential solutions, and drive execution

Education and Experience

• B.E./B.Tech./M.E./M.Tech in VLSI
• Minimum of 5 years of working experience in DFT flow of a product company.
• Strong fundamentals in digital ASIC design, experience with ASIC test, DFT, and debug

Detailed Responsibilities and Skills

• Define DFT strategy and methodologies
• Define test structures, debug structures, test plans
• Create test vectors, simulate in various modes
• Collaborate with physical design team to close requirements
• Validate DFT requirements are being met
• Work with designers to increase test coverage, debug observability and flexibility
• Verify post-PD designs meet DFT requirements
• Knowledge of full DFT flow (test structure insertion, pattern generation, simulation )
• Hands-on experience with Cadence Genus, Modus tools,
• Should have good understanding of Verilog/VHDL
• Exposure to low power techniques
• Knowledge of TCL and Python scripting is a must
