DFT Lead

My client is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior DFT (Design for Testability) and Post-Silicon Lead to join their team. This role is pivotal in driving the implementation of DFT strategies for complex SoCs (System on Chips) and SoC chiplets in package, ensuring seamless integration with test and post-silicon validation teams. You will work with cutting-edge technology and collaborate with internal teams, external IP providers, and EDA vendors to deliver high-quality, high-performance solutions for mass production.

If you are passionate about innovation and thrive in a leadership role, we encourage you to apply. International applications are welcome!

Responsibilities:

• Lead and mentor the DFT and Post-Silicon engineering teams to foster innovation and efficiency
• Provide technical direction and ensure alignment with organisational goals
• Promote a culture of continuous improvement and collaboration.DFT Strategy & Execution
• Define and implement DFT architectures to enhance testability, debug capabilities, and manufacturability
• Ensure the integration of DFT features such as scan chains, BIST (Built-In Self-Test), and JTAG interfaces
• Optimise DFT methodologies to minimize test time, reduce costs, and improve quality and yield

Test development & implementation:

• Develop and execute test plans and strategies at silicon, package, and system levels
• Design automated test solutions for production and characterisation
• Ensure comprehensive test coverage across all product development stages, from pre-silicon to mass production
• Guarantee high yield on final solutions, addressing chiplet complexities

Cross-functional collaboration:

• Collaborate with design, validation, packaging, and operations teams to ensure seamless integration of testing and manufacturability
• Work closely with product management to align with customer requirements and timelines

Process improvement & innovation:

• Explore and implement new DFT methodologies and manufacturing processes
• Lead initiatives to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and enhance quality in test and production

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• Proven experience with multiple tape-outs of high-performance SoCs or SiPs for mass production
• Strong expertise in post-silicon test optimisation and yield analysis
• Demonstrated experience in defining and implementing test strategies for high-volume production
• Proficiency in RTL and testbench development using SystemVerilog and Verilog
• Strong scripting skills in Shell, Tcl, and Python3
• Hands-on experience with Tessent and SSN methods integrated with leading EDA design flows for advanced technology nodes is highly desirable

If you are ready to take on a challenging and rewarding role in a dynamic environment, we look forward to receiving your application. Join us in shaping the future of high-performance SoCs and SiPs.
