Overview

Senior/Principal Design-For-Test (DFT) Engineer As part of my clients ongoing expansion, I am looking for a candidate to strengthen the ASIC Implementation team, located in Reading or Cambridge the ideal candidate will have a strong academic record and 5-10 years’ experience in Design for Test (DFT) within digital and mixed-signal ASIC/SoC development. This role will be located close to Reading, South of the UK and as part of the role the successful engineer will take full-flow ownership of all DFT, MBIST, and test-pattern generation for complex digital and mixed-signal ASIC designs. They will setup, run, and maintain EDA tool flows relating to DFT, MBIST, and test pattern generation and work closely alongside the Front-end and Back-end teams to implement and verify DFT at all stages in the development flow. I am looking for a DFT Engineer who will have the following key skills and knowledge; 1st or 2.1 Electronics, Physics or relevant subject. Several years’ experience in industry with a strong track record in DFT gained across several successful ASIC projects, and ideally at process nodes down to and including 16FF Specific skills in DFT implementation: Specification at the architecture level Implementation using tool-based and hand-crafted methods Integration of IP including CPU’s, Analog Macros, and IO PHYs MBIST and memory repair integration Coverage analysis and improvement to meet targets ATPG, as well as manual and semi-automatic TPG, including simulation-based methods Implementation of at-speed test methodologies DFT for power-managed designs Generation of STA and scenario/mode constraints Working knowledge of the complete SoC design flow and associated tools and methodologies to deliver working silicon. Experience of RTL and gate-level simulation as applied to DFT verification VHDL/Verilog coding skills For further details and a confidential discussion please contact Rachel Mason IC Resources.
