Software Development Engineer (Design for Test)

We are looking for a highly motivated and capable software engineer to join the R&D team developing Design-for-Test (DFT) tools as part of the Tessent product line. These advanced tools are a key part of the industry-leading Tessent platform and are vital to our customers’ success in silicon validation of ICs. The focus will be on developing solutions for logic test. Development will be done in C++ on a Linux platform.

The candidate will be responsible for designing and implementing software products/features. This includes design, writing specifications, planning, schedule estimation, implementation, and thorough testing. Challenges include the ability to develop complete and efficient solutions within a large and complex code base, and integrate them with existing products. High productivity, exceptional problem-solving skills, and the ability to architect and implement high-quality and maintainable software are key. Equally crucial for success are strong teamwork and communication skills, self-drive, and a positive can-do attitude.
