 Senior DFT Engineer

Location: Switzerland (Lausanne), Germany (Dortmund), or UK (Northampton or Reading)

Are you an experienced DFT Engineer eager to drive innovation in the semiconductor industry? We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior DFT Engineer to join a high-tech, fast-growing company making strides in high-speed, energy-efficient chip-chip link solutions. If you’re passionate about pushing your limits and thrive in a challenging, forward-thinking environment, this could be the role for you.

Role overview:

As a Senior DFT Engineer, you will collaborate with multi-site teams to drive the design, implementation, and simulation of complex DFT architectures, managing projects from initial stages through to successful tape-outs. This role involves developing and leading DFT methodologies and tool flows for intricate, multi-million gate designs, including those with Analog/high bandwidth SerDes. You will define comprehensive test plans, contribute to functional and structural test development, and support the definition of HTOL test suites, cycle times, and burn-in PCB board bring-up. 

Key Skills:
  • Experience in DFT, including architecture specification, implementation, test pattern development, and verification.
  • Proven expertise in MBIST insertion, simulation, and verification on RTL and Gate Level Netlist.
  • Solid experience with Scan insertion, Scan compression, Stuck-At, At-Speed testing, and coverage analysis.
  • Proficiency in Scan ATPG pattern generation, simulation, and debug on RTL and Gate Level Netlist.
  • Hands-on experience with state-of-the-art EDA tools for DFT, design, and verification (Mentor, Cadence, Synopsys).
  • Familiarity with STA DFT test mode timing constraint development and analysis.
  • Strong Verilog HDL knowledge, with experience in simulators and waveform debugging tools.
  • Proficiency in TCL scripting; Python scripting skills are advantageous.
This role offers the opportunity to be part of a dynamic team at the forefront of technological advancement in the semiconductor sector. As a Senior DFT Engineer, you’ll play a crucial role in driving innovation and shaping solutions for the future of electronics. If you’re looking for a position that challenges you and allows you to impact cutting-edge technology, we’d love to hear from you.
