Job summary

EnCharge AI in the United States is seeking a Design for Test (DFT) Lead to architect end-to-end DFT for complex SoCs, including Boundary Scan and MBIST, with focus on testability for edge-to-cloud hardware.

You will drive IST and POST strategies for in-systems health, oversee ATPG and scan insertion, and partner with Design, Physical Design, and Yield teams to balance coverage with area and power.

Qualifications

  • 12+ years in DFT with leadership experience
  • Bachelor’s degree in a related field
  • Expertise with MBIST and boundary scan technologies
  • Experience with ATPG for stuck-at, path delay, transitions
  • Proficiency with MBIST repair and IJTAG (IEEE 1687)
  • Experience with FinFET nodes (7nm+)
  • Experience in low-power DFT for multi-voltage designs

Responsibilities

  • Architect end-to-end DFT architecture for complex SoCs, including Boundary Scan and MBIST
  • Develop IST and POST strategies for edge data centers
  • Oversee scan insertion and ATPG (stuck-at, transition, path delay)
  • Lead Memory/Logic BIST initiatives and repair capabilities
  • Collaborate with Design, Physical Design, Yield to balance coverage vs. area/power
  • Lead post-silicon bring-up and debug on ATE to minimize test time
