DFT - Sr Engineer

Job Area:
Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Hardware Engineering

General Summary:

Be a member of the team that plays a significant role in
ensuring the quality of Connectivity SoCs through
structured DFT, Automatic Test Pattern Generation
(ATPG) and Memory Built-In Self-Test (MBIST) techniques.

Primary responsibilities will include,
Interface with design team to ensure DFT design rules and coverages are met.
Generating high quality manufacturing ATPG test patterns for stuck-at (SAF), transition fault (TDF) models through the use of on-chip test compression techniques.
MBIST verification (including repair), test pattern generation through Mentor tool.
ATPG (SAF, TDF) and MBIST verification using unit delay and min/max timing corner simulations.
Work with the Product/Test engineering teams on the delivery of manufacturing test patterns for ATE.
Responsible for supporting post silicon debug effort, issue resolution.
Responsible for Diagnostic Tool generation for ATPG, MBIST and bring-up on ATE.
Developing, enhancing and maintaining scripts as necessary
