Cpu Dft Engineer

Full-time - Multiple Levels - Austin and Santa ClaraNuvacore is building 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 ROLEAs 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 clking 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
