  • Apply standardized DFT methodologies and flows to deliver efficient, repeatable results across multiple projects.
  • Integrate DFT requirements into RTL and physical design stages through collaboration with design, verification, and backend teams.
  • Develop automation scripts (TCL, Python, Perl) for test pattern creation, validation, and analysis.
  • Analyze test data from silicon bring-up and production to identify improvements and support root-cause debugging.
  • Document DFT implementations, test results, and reuse IP for team knowledge sharing.
  • Perform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with automotive ASIL flows or high-volume manufacturing test challenges.
  • Proactive contributor to process improvements and tool evaluations.

About the Company

GlobalFoundries

Semiconductor foundry delivering specialized chips

GlobalFoundries is a semiconductor foundry that manufactures chips for a broad range of customers, focusing on feature-rich, reliable technologies for cars, IoT, 5G, and other high-growth markets. It operates by fabricating silicon wafers for customer designs, offering mature, specialized processes rather than chasing the most advanced nodes. This makes it different from peers that prize the latest process nodes; GlobalFoundries emphasizes diversification across a global manufacturing footprint (U.S., Europe, Singapore) and stable supply for essential applications. Its goal is to be a leading supplier of high-volume, specialty manufacturing that enables reliable chips for everyday devices and growing tech markets.
