5+ years expDelos-data is a stealth-mode startup focused on developing foundational technology for AI data center clusters. They are seeking an experienced DFT Verification Engineer to ensure the quality and correctness of ASIC DFT logic through robust verification environments and collaboration with design engineers.
Semiconductors
Responsibilities
Develop, implement, and maintain RTL verification environments using UVM or equivalent methodologies
Create and execute coverage-driven verification plans aligned with design specifications
Use EDA DFT tools (e.g., TestMax, Tessent) to create and run recommended pre-silicon test cases for MBIST and scan fabric inserted by those tools
Develop directed test cases for other (non-vendor-supplied) DFT logic to validate functionality and identify corner cases
Assist in verifying ATPG patterns, especially at SOC level, along with manufacturing reset sequences
Analyze simulation results, debug complex verification and design issues, and perform root-cause analysis in collaboration with DFT design engineers
Implement and track functional and code coverage, driving verification to closure
Develop reusable verification components and write SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA)
Participate in design and verification reviews, providing input on design testability, correctness, and optimization
Automate regression testing and enhance verification infrastructure using Python and scripting
Contribute to continuous improvement of verification processes, tools, and methodologies
Along with the DFT designers, help support post-silicon test bring-up debug
