Full Job Description
As part of the Design for Test (DFT) Engineering team, you will contribute to enabling testability and quality for next-generation High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) products. The team focuses on integrating and validating robust DFT features to support efficient silicon bring-up and yield ramp, working closely with multi-functional engineering groups.
In this entry-level role, the DFT Design Engineer supports the design, simulation, and validation of DFT structures within HBM designs. This includes assisting with scan implementation, test integration, and debug activities while learning standard methodologies from experienced engineers and contributing to high-quality silicon development.
Responsibilities
• Assist with scan insertion and integration of DFT features including test modes, clocks, resets, and clock control mechanisms
• Support hierarchical DFT integration for multi-channel or replicated HBM structures and help implement IJTAG and P1500 functionality
• Run and debug DFT checks such as scan DRC, chain integrity, and X-propagation issues in test mode
• Support simulation and debug activities including ATPG readiness, test-mode sequencing, and MBIST validation for selected memories
• Collaborate with RTL, DV, PD, and Product/Test Engineering teams to resolve integration issues and participate in build reviews
Minimum Qualifications
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent
• 0-3 years of experience or relevant internship/research experience in ASIC/SoC design, DFT, or verification
• Basic understanding of digital design fundamentals including sequential logic, clocks/resets, and timing concepts
• Experience or familiarity with synthesizable RTL such as SystemVerilog or Verilog
• Ability to support DFT implementation, validation, and debug tasks in a team environment
Preferred Qualifications
• Basic understanding of DFT concepts such as scan, MBIST, or boundary scan/JTAG
• Exposure to DFT tools or methodologies through coursework, projects, or internships
• Familiarity with test access mechanisms, ATPG preparation, or gate-level simulation concepts
• Interest in learning advanced DFT practices and high-speed memory design environments
• Strong collaboration skills and eagerness to learn from senior engineers
