Design Specialist

Develop and execute pre-silicon verification test plans for DFT features of the chip. Develop directed and random verification tests to validate the functionality. • Verify DFT design blocks and subsystems (such as MBIST, high speed IO PHY, fuse, clocks, reset) using complex SV or C++ verification environments. Construct SystemVerilog and/or C/C++ models and test sequence libraries for simulation. • Build test bench components including agents, monitors, scoreboards for DUT. Compose tests, assertions, checkers, validation vectors and coverage bins to ensure verification completeness. • Debug regression test failures to expose specification and implementation issues. Identify and address areas of concern to meet design quality objectives. • Develop high coverage and cost effective test patterns, and take part in ATE bring-up. • Post silicon ATE and System level debug support of the test patterns delivered. Optimize the test patterns to improve the test quality and reduce test costs. What is the experience and knowledge you should have? • 3 to 6 year experience in DFT feature verification (such as JTAG, MBIST, SCAN, fuse, IO-PHY loopback testing) • Strong background in Verilog, SystemVerilog (SV), SVA, UVM verification methodologies and C++ • Strong debug skills and experience with debug tools such as Verdi. • Experience with EDA simulation tools like Synopsys VCS, Cadence NCSIM, Verdi • Experience with scripting languages like Tcl/Perl/Ruby/Python • Working knowledge of Unix/Linux OS, file version control. Additional skills: • Experience in ATE debug, Synthesis, formal/LEC, or power analysis will be a plus. • Strong analytical/problem solving skills and pronounced attention to details • Knowledge of STA Constraints for various DFT modes. • Excellent written and verbal communication What educational background should have? • Minimum Engineering Degree in Electronics/Electrical/Computer Science.
