Responsibilities

DFT architect will work closely with the design team, embedded FPGA technologists, customers and physical designers to define appropriate DFT features, structures, and methodologies for our products. You will also work with business and operations leaders to define appropriate test coverage targets that meet quality and business needs.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Architect DFT solutions catered to eFPGA, DSP, and AI Inference IP
  • Develop DFT flows for high-quality production
  • Implement and verify DFT solutions
  • Lead other team members to successfully implement and verify DFT solutions
  • Automate the all DFT processes and flows
  • Interface with customers as issues arise or to clarify solutions
  • Interface with DFT EDA vendors
  • Interface with contractors or partners
  • Clearly communicate and document methods and scripts
  • Clearly communicate status throughout the project

Required Experience

  • Extensive experience in leading DFT for high-quality products that reached high-volume production
  • Proven experience in defining strategy and implementation of at least 1 high-volume production SOC
  • Proven experience setting-up flows with standard EDA tools
  • Experience verifying solutions
  • Deep understanding of how leading DFT industry tools work
  • Deep understanding of defect density and the implication of DFT methods on physical design
  • Recent hands-on experience implementing DFT on a significant SOC
  • BSEE/MSEE with 5 or more years of relevant industry experience
  • Must be innovative and be able to cater solutions to particular designs
  • Must have hands-on experience in scripting languages
  • Must have hands-on experience in testbench creation and gate-level simulations with SDF

Preferred experience OR willing to quickly learn:

  • Understanding of computer architectures for DSP and AI
  • DFT needs and solutions for automotive
  • Understanding of FPGA architectures and how to best test them
  • Running logic synthesis and static timing tools

Must be passionate about being part of an aggressive, venture-backed startup team that is changing computation for the future (more secure, higher performance per watt). Must be entrepreneurial, innovative problem solver and willing to work hard.

Must live in Silicon Valley or Austin area and have US citizenship or permanent residency (“green card”), or holding a current H1-B visa
