Dear Connections,

We are Hiring "DFT Engineers"

  • Exp : 3-8 years
  • Location : Bangalore/Hyderabad
  • Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical/Electronics Engineering

Role Summary

We are seeking a skilled Design-for-Test (DFT) Engineer with strong expertise in Scan insertion, ATPG pattern generation, and JTAG/Boundary Scan. The candidate will be responsible for developing and implementing DFT architecture to ensure high test coverage, robust manufacturability, and seamless silicon bring-up.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement DFT architecture for digital ASIC/SoC designs.
  • Perform scan insertion, scan stitching, and validation using industry-standard tools.
  • Generate high-quality ATPG test patterns for stuck-at, transition, path delay, and compression-based testing.
  • Work with JTAG (IEEE 1149.1/ boundary scan architecture; develop TAP controllers and verify compliance.
  • Integrate and verify DFT features (MBIST, LBIST, boundary scan, compression logic).
  • Perform DFT verification using simulation and formal methods.
  • Drive fault coverage improvements and debug low-coverage areas.
  • Support silicon bring-up, tester pattern conversion, and ATE debug (Teradyne/Advantest).
  • Collaborate with RTL, physical design, and product engineering teams.
  • Create DFT documentation and deliverables (DFT spec, pattern reports, test plans).

Required Skills & Experience

  • Strong knowledge of Scan/DFT methodologies, scan insertion, and scan chain verification.
  • Hands-on experience with ATPG tools:
  • Synopsys TetraMAX / TestMAX
  • Cadence Modus
  • Mentor/Siemens Tessent
  • Solid understanding of JTAG/TAP controller design and boundary scan implementation.
  • Experience with Verilog, SystemVerilog, and RTL debug.
  • Familiarity with SDC constraints and timing closure for test modes.
  • Knowledge of DFT for low-power designs (power domains, isolation, retention).
  • Experience with MBIST and/or LBIST is a plus.
  • Good understanding of fault models and coverage analysis.
  • Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in ATE pattern bring-up.
  • Knowledge of formal verification, STA for DFT modes, and gate-level simulation.
