Senior Staff DFT MBIST Engineer

Role Overview

We are seeking a Senior Staff DFT Engineer to join a rapidly growing DFT design team focused on next-generation AI accelerator SoCs . In this role, you will define, architect, and implement current and future DFT/DFX solutions , supporting advanced SoC designs that leverage innovative memory-centric compute and heterogeneous chiplet architectures .

This is a highly hands-on role requiring both deep technical execution and high-level planning , working across design, verification, product, and test teams to ensure robust manufacturability and silicon bring-up.

Location

Hybrid, working onsite at our Bengaluru, Karnataka, headquarters 3-5 days per week.

Key Responsibilities

• -
• Drive DFT partitioning strategies for ATPG, including hierarchical and scalable approaches.
• -
• Implement ATPG compression and serialization , and perform RTL scan insertion with associated design rule fixes.
• -
• Own Memory BIST (MBIST) solutions, including memory repair and in-system test (IST) , from implementation through verification and silicon debug.
• -
• Support boundary scan and define DFT mode constraints for IPs, providing timing feedback to STA teams.
• -
• Generate and integrate DFT RTL , ensuring quality through RTL-level checks (e.g., linting and DFT rule verification).
• -
• Apply and support IEEE 1149.1, IEEE 1500, and IEEE 1687 standards.
• -
• Execute and verify ATPG (SAF, TDF) and MBIST using unit-delay and min/max timing simulations.
• -
• Perform detailed ATPG coverage analysis and drive coverage closure.
• -
• Collaborate with product and test engineering teams to deliver manufacturing test patterns for ATE.
• -
• Develop diagnostic tools and flows for ATPG, MBIST, and silicon bring-up on ATE.
• -
• Work hands-on with industry-standard DFT tools , contributing from low-level implementation through architectural planning.

Minimum Qualifications

• -
• BE/ME (or equivalent) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• -
• 7+ years of experience in DFT, including scan test and MBIST .
• -
• Proficiency with HDLs such as Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL.
• -
• Experience with scripting or programming languages (e.g., Python, Perl, TCL, C).
• -
• Strong ability to collaborate effectively in cross-functional and diverse teams .
• -
• Experience producing clear, detailed technical documentation .
