Responsibilities
The position will be responsible for architecting, leading and implementing DFT/Test on complex IP and SOC for multiple custom/compute ASIC/SoC designs
The execution involves Design-for-Test architecture definition, implementation of various DFT/DFX features, validation, IP-DFT, STA, pattern generation & post-silicon bring-up and debug for various designs/IPs in Custom/Compute space
In this position, the responsibility also includes mentoring, guiding and driving a small team of engineers enabling them for scaling across multiple designs
The position also involves definition and enhancement of DFT methodologies and tools to be able to benchmark them and enable new methodologies in the domain of DFT/Test
This is a hands-on job
While leadership, mentoring, customer meetings, helping drive DFT architecture, inventing DFT solutions that address new scenarios, driving EDA vendors, are all an integral part of this role, the engineer will be executing on existing and new programs
