This role is for one of Weekday’s clients

Min Experience: 6+ years
Location: Bengaluru, Noida
JobType: full-time

Own DFT for a sub-system or mid-size SoC. Plan the hierarchical DFT implementation, guide 2–3 engineers, coordinate with design, STA and PD teams, and act as the first-level DFT contact with the customer.

Experience: 6 to 7 years. Must have 3 or more tapeouts, with DFT ownership of at least one sub-system or SoC.


Requirements

Desired Skills:

1. Hierarchical DFT: core wrapping (IEEE 1500), pattern retargeting and top-level DFT integration.

2. Chooses scan compression configuration and chain balancing based on test time and pin budget.

3. Drives coverage closure through test-point insertion, ATPG constraint tuning and low-coverage debug.

4. MBIST with repair (BISR, eFuse) integration, and understanding of memory test algorithms.

5. Builds IJTAG (IEEE 1687) networks, TAP controller and boundary scan (IEEE 1149.1 / 1149.6).

6. Owns DFT-mode timing: shift, capture and at-speed constraints, OCC clock controllers, and closure with STA and PD teams.

7. Owns DFT gate-level simulation sign-off for all test modes.

8. Delivers ATE-ready patterns (STIL / WGL) and supports first-silicon bring-up on the tester.

9. Plans, estimates and tracks DFT tasks; mentors 2–3 engineers and reviews their work.

10. Builds automation for DFT flows and reports in Tcl or Python.
