SoC DFX Engineer: Scan, SMS & Timing Specialist

Infinecs Systems; Bayan Lepas; On-site; MYR 70,000 - 110,000; Full time

Job summary

Infinecs Systems in Bayan Lepas, Penang, is expanding its SoC DFX team across three tracks: Scan/ATPG, SMS (Memory BIST), and Timing Signoff. You will contribute to pre-silicon design/verification and post-silicon ATE bring-up, aligning to your background in one track.

Join a collaborative group spanning Front-End, Physical Design, DV, and DFT to deliver silicon milestones, develop high-coverage patterns, and optimize test quality. English communication required; Mandarin a plus.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree with 3 years, or Master's degree with 1 year, of relevant experience, minimum
• Minimum 5 years of experience in one or more of: MBIST, DFT/DFX, scan insertion, ATPG, STA/timing signoff, synthesis, SoC verification, or related semiconductor design activities
• Solid background in process, device, or ASIC design
• Proven knowledge in two or more of: SCAN, MBIST, RTL design, STA, Verification, or DV
• Strong programming/scripting skills in Perl, Tcl, or Python is a strong plus
• Familiarity with JTAG, Boundary Scan, Design Compiler/Fusion Compiler/Primetime, or CTS/ICC physical design flow is a plus, depending on track
• Good communication skills in English (Mandarin a plus); self-driven, collaborative, and willing to learn/share

Responsibilities

• Study and implement cutting-edge test strategies within your specialization
• Scan track: own tile-level scan insertion, ATPG, and quality checks; perform scan DRC and non-scan analysis; generate and verify chip-level scan patterns; support Scan ATE bring-up and debug
• SMS track: implement DFX SMS design on SRAM/ROM/latch arrays; develop and verify tile- and chip-level BIST and memory repair test cases; develop high-coverage, cost-effective production test patterns
• Timing track: develop and maintain DFT SDC; support special and multi-voltage timing checks; enhance timing signoff automation; work with Front-End and Physical Design teams on synthesis optimization and full-chip timing closure
• Collaborate across Front-End Design, Physical Design, DV, and DFT teams to support product delivery milestones
• Support DFX quality checks, documentation, and silicon bring-up activities
