Design for Test Engineer

Summary

Imagine what you can do here. Apple is a place where extraordinary people gather to do their lives best work. Together we create products and experiences people once couldn't have imagined, and now, can't imagine living without. It's the diversity of those people and their ideas that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do.

Minimum Qualifications

Master’s degree or foreign equivalent in Electrical Engineering or related field and 4 years of experience in the job offered or related occupation. Experience and/or education must include: Utilizing experience in Bug Triage and Resolution Management using formal bug tracking system (e.g., JIRA or Radar) to file detailed bug reports, track issue status, and drive problems to closure by following up and collaborating with design and other relevant teams. Verifying advanced Design for Test (DFT) functions, including scan and core level testing. Performed scan testing and waveform analysis in Synopsys Verdi using a developed model. Leveraged knowledge of computer architecture, including pipelining, caching, and memory management, to develop effective verification strategies. Leveraged the advanced features of SystemVerilog, such as constrained-random stimulus generation and assertion-based verification, in conjunction with Verilog to ensure robust design verification. Utilizing Verification Automation using scripting languages (e.g., Perl, Python, Tcl) to automate the setup of simulation environments, generate test configurations, parse log files, and create regression management scripts to generate project collaterals. Utilizing experience in Hardware Design Specification and RTL Code Analysis to understand complex hardware design documents and corresponding RTL code (SystemVerilog/Verilog) and to conduct specification reviews, create comprehensive verification plans, and identify potential flaws in the design architecture. Utilizing experience in Advanced Failure Triage and Debug using advanced waveform viewers and debug tools (e.g., Verdi or DVE) to trace test failures back to their root cause in the source code or netlist, to find bugs and provide actionable debug information to design teams. Applying a working knowledge of DFT principles, such as scan chains and ATPG patterns, to effectively verify scan dumps, debug mismatches between DFT reports and simulation results, and bridge the gap between pre-silicon verification and post-silicon testing.
