The Opportunity
We are looking for a high-energy,
Staff-level DFT Engineer
to join our silicon team. In the fast-paced world of Edge AI, efficiency is everything.
As a "go-getter" in a startup environment, you’ll have the autonomy to shape the end-to-end DFT insertion process for our next-generation AI accelerators.
Key Responsibilities:
- End-to-End DFT Strategy:
Define and implement the complete DFT architecture as independent as possible, including Scan, MBIST, BSCAN, and Boundary Scan.
-
Take charge of DFT constraint development and management, ensuring seamless integration with synthesis and STA (Static Timing Analysis) teams.
What You Bring
- The Experience:
9–10 years of hands-on experience in DFT, preferably with at least one full tape-out cycle in a lead or staff capacity.
- The Toolkit:
Expert-level proficiency with industry-standard tools (e.g., Siemens Tessent, Synopsys DFTMAX/TetraMAX, or Cadence Genus/Modus).
- Technical Depth:
Deep understanding of DFT-centric STA, power-aware DFT, and high-speed IO testing.
- Startup Mindset:
You are comfortable wearing multiple hats. You don't wait for a manual; you build the manual.
Why Join Us?
- High Impact:
In a startup, your decisions aren't buried in layers of bureaucracy; they are visible in the final silicon.
- Growth:
You’ll be working alongside veterans from top-tier chipmakers, solving problems that haven't been solved yet.
- Ownership:
We value "intrapreneurs"—engineers who treat the product like it’s their own.
