About this role
Project Role : Design-For-Test (DFT) Engineer
Project Role Description : Enable effective post-manufacturing chip testing by integrating testability features during the design phase. Apply DFT methodologies such as scan chains, Built-In Self-Test (BIST), and boundary scan to detect defects and enhance test coverage. Ensure high-quality silicon by collaborating with design and verification teams to optimize for test efficiency and fault isolation.
Must have skills : Design for Testability (DFT)
Good to have skills : NA
Minimum 3 Year(s) Of Experience Is Required
Educational Qualification : 15 years full time education
Summary:
As a Design-For-Test Engineer, your day involves ensuring that integrated circuits are designed with features that facilitate thorough and efficient testing after manufacturing. You will focus on embedding testability elements within the design to identify potential defects early. Collaboration with various teams is essential to optimize the design for fault detection and isolation, thereby contributing to the production of high-quality silicon chips. Your role is pivotal in bridging design and testing processes to improve overall product reliability and performance.
