Job description

At Capgemini Engineering, the world leader in engineering services, we bring together a global team of engineers, scientists, and architects to help the world’s mostinnovative companies unleash their potential. From autonomous cars to life-saving robots, our digital and software technology experts think outside the box as theyprovide unique R&D and engineering services across all industries. Join us for a career full of opportunities. Where you can make a difference. Where no two days arethe same.

Your role

Are you in search for a new challenge? Are you equipped with forward looking spirit and experienced in digital design flows and tools? Design-for-Test (DFT) is a multi-disciplinary field of growing complexity which involves cooperation among multiple VLSI engineering skills, including design, architecture, verification, backend, timing, test, ATE and reliability and more.

Your task

• DFT implementation inline with existing test methodology for advance process nodes.
• Perform top and/or block-level DFT insertion: scan compression, (i)JTAG, ATPG, patterns validation/simulation, MBIST/LBIST.
• Closely work with physical design team to resolve timing constraints/issues.
• Verify DFT circuitry and interface with other components/IPs and debug timing simulation issues.
• Debug and improve important DFT KPIs: test coverage/pattern efficiency.
• Hierarchical retargeting.
• Silicon bring-up, diagnosis and support for physical failure analysis.
• Opportunity to Lead a multilocational team of DFT engineers.

Your profile

• 6+ years of hands‑on experience with DFT and test flows with commercial EDA tools for large and complex SOCs.
• Strong fundamental knowledge of DFT techniques including JTAG, ATPG, yield learning, logic diagnosis, Scan compression, IEEE 1500 Std. and MBIST/LBIST.
• Experience with one of the main EDAs providers: Synopsys DFT Complier, Tetramax, VCS, Tessent and Modus/Encounter tool suite.
• Experience in RTL simulation, synthesis, Linting, CDC and RDC checks, STA, DFT, quality metrics is a plus.
• Hands‑on in Perl/Tcl/Python scripting.
• Excellent analytical, and problem-solving skills.
