About the Role
You will develop DFT architectures for ASIC and SoC designs and integrate scan, boundary scan, BIST, and MBIST methodologies. You will plan and execute DFT verification, analyze silicon and test data, support bring-up and failure analysis, optimize ATE programs and test patterns, and document DFT architecture and procedures. You will also lead reviews, share DFT practices, and mentor others.
