ASIC Engineering Technical Leader-San Jose, California (Onsite)

Role name: ASIC Engineering Technical Leader

Work Location: San Jose, California (Onsite)

Type of hire: Contract

We are seeking a motivated, proactive, and intellectually curious ASIC Engineering Technical Leader with focus in Design-for-Test. In this role, you will be leading development of DFT solutions for next-generation ASICs for multi-100G to 1.6T coherent optical communications products.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead implementation of SSN based test flow DFT architectures, including scan insertion, compression/decompression logic, memory BIST, and logic BIST, using Siemens Tessent tools for RTL and gate netlist DFT implementation.
• Generate and deliver ATPG test pattern for stuck-at, transition, cell aware and path delay fault models, drive scan-based diagnosis methodology for Silicon failure debug, and provide post-silicon testing and validation support
• Responsible for evaluating design readiness for scan insertion through RTL and physical design Scan Design Rule Check (DRC) tools
• Integration and verification of Design for Test (DFT) fabrics and IP within Subsystems
• Perform simulation runs and debug for non-timing and back annotated timing (SDF) gate level simulations
• Develop test scripts, automate processes, and analyze data using programming languages such as Python, Tcl, or C++

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelors + 8 years of related experience, or Masters + 6 years of related experience, or PhD + 3 years of related experience
• Prior experience working with ASICs
• Prior experience in scan insertion and DFT setup, integration and validation
• Prior experience implementing DFT architectures-including scan insertion, compression/decompression logic, and memory/logic BIST.

Preferred Qualifications:

• 10+ years of experience working with ASICs
• 10+ years of experience in scan insertion and DFT setup, integration and validation
• 3+ years of experience in SSN
• Experience driving ASIC DFT execution from concept through tapeout
• Experience working with ATE testers and test teams
• RTL experience to understand and debugging issues pertaining to DFT
• Ability to solve complex problems including clock domain crossings
• Familiar with advanced silicon process and technology nodes for high speed and low power consumption
• Strong implementation or integration of design blocks using Verilog/System Verilog
