CPU DFT Engineer

Nuvacore is building a ground-up high performance, low-power CPU for next-generation compute workloads. As DFT engineers within the CPU team you will be responsible for test related pre-silicon and post-silicon activities. We will be delivering a DFT architecture which aligns with the projects industry - leading power, performance, and area.

THE ROLE

As a CPU DFT Engineer, you will participate in the following areas:

• Defining and implementing area and power efficient DFT architecture while collaborating with design, STA and PD

• Develop scan and BIST insertion flows, implement DFT registers in design blocks

• Completing DFT architecture specifications

• Review and integrate third party IPs into DFT architecture

• Define verification plans for DFT features

• Review DFT coverage for scan and MBIST

• Verification of DFT features in RTL and gates, and power aware simulations

• Generate test content for silicon bringup, and support silicon bringup activities including yield analysis

REQUIREMENTS — MUST TO HAVE

• BS or MS with 7+ years experience in DFT or DFT verification

• Scan or MBIST with industry standard EDA tools, or experience with DFT verification flows

• For scan role, able to define scan insertion, scan compression, and clocking requirements, and define intest and extest modes

• For MBIST role, be very familiar with memory repair, and repair interaction with functional operation

• Strong understanding of JTAG, IEEE 1500 and IEEE 1687

• Experience with Verilog RTL and gate level netlists, including running and debugging simulations

• Strong communication skills and ability to work with cross functional teams

REQUIREMENTS — NICE TO HAVE

• Using DFT features to support system debug

• Leveraging AI tools to accelerate DFT work flows

• Porting test content and supporting silicon bringup on ATE platforms

• Experience in Perl, Python, or TCL
