What you need

  • B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering or related field
  • 7+ years of experience in DFT for complex SoCs
  • Strong hands-on experience with RTL DFT insertion (scan, compression, test points) and ATPG tools and flows
  • Deep understanding of scan architectures, compression techniques, fault models, coverage analysis and closure strategies
  • Experience with low-power DFT techniques
  • Familiarity with mixed-signal integration challenges and test methodologies

Nice to have

  • Experience with MBIST/LBIST implementation and memory repair flows
  • Knowledge of IEEE 1149.x (JTAG/boundary scan) standards
  • Experience with multi-voltage domain and power-aware DFT
  • Exposure to physical design impacts on DFT
  • Scripting experience for automation

What you get

  • Base salary range for this role is $170,000 – $250,000 + equity in the company
  • Comprehensive benefits package including paid time off, medical/dental/vision coverage, life insurance, paid parental leave, and many other perks

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of remote work policies beyond being remote
  • The role requires deep technical expertise, which may be challenging for less experienced candidates
  • The company is in a high-growth phase, which can mean a fast-paced and potentially unstable work environment
