Remote DFT Engineer for High‑Speed CPU SoCs

OpenTalent; United States; On-site; USD 150,000 - 210,000; Full time

Job summary

Tenstorrent is seeking an experienced DFT engineer to lead chip-level DFT strategies for high-speed CPU cores and multi-chiplet SIP programs. You will implement scan chains, memory BIST, and JTAG for manufacturing test and silicon debugging, working with RTL, physical design, and verification teams to ensure testability across the design flow.

The role requires 10+ years in DFT, expertise with Synopsys and Siemens tools, and scripting in TCL/Python.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's, Master's or PhD in Electrical/Computer Engineering or Computer Science.
• 10+ years of DFT experience.
• Experience with industry-standard DFT tools (Synopsys, Siemens).
• Scripting in TCL and Python.
• DFT planning, SoC-level silicon debugging, formal verification, and signoff of inserted DFT logic.

Responsibilities

• Build and execute chip-level DFT strategies for high-speed CPU core designs and multi-chiplet System-in-Package programs.
• Implement and verify DFT features including scan chains, memory BIST, and JTAG for manufacturing test and silicon debug.
• Collaborate with RTL, physical design, and verification teams to ensure testability across the design flow.
• Script, automate, and analyze DFT flows using industry-standard EDA tools, including ATPG and fault coverage reporting.
