About the Job

Requirements

A Master degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent.
Expertise and knowledge of industrial standards and practices in design for test, including automatic test pattern generation, JTAG, and memory built-in self-test, with understanding of trade-offs between test quality and test time.
Confidence with Verilog and/or VHDL, with experience using simulators and waveform debugging tools.
Fluency in written and verbal English.

Responsibilities

Develop and implement design-for-test architecture.
Work with the validation team to verify design-for-test implementations and implement design changes.
Generate structural test vectors, analyze coverage, and improve coverage.
Work with designers on static timing analysis, physical, power, and logical issues.
Work with Test Engineers to bring up test vectors on silicon.

Desired Qualifications

Confirmed understanding of design verification methodologies for validating design-for-test implementation in pre-silicon simulation.
Knowledge of debugging automatic test pattern generation patterns, compressed automatic test pattern generation patterns, memory built-in self-test, and JTAG/IEEE 1500-related issues.
Experience developing and analyzing static timing analysis constraints for design-for-test modes and using standard delay format simulations.
Experience conducting experiments during silicon debug, capturing and analyzing data, and using scripting to efficiently handle automated test equipment data.
