JobsStaff DFT ATPG Engineer, AI Hardware
Job description
Tesla's AI Hardware team is seeking a highly motivated ASIC RTL Design Engineer specializing in custom AI accelerators. The role focuses on designing high-performance, power-efficient RTL for math-intensive components that support AI training and inference systems, emphasizing expertise in tensor operations and optimized data paths.
Requirements
- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience
- 10+ years across ATPG, ATE test development, and DFT timing
- Expert-level Tessent proficiency — TestKompress and MemoryBIST
- Deep knowledge of fault models: stuck-at, transition, path delay, cell-aware, and SDD
- ATE test program development and OSAT deployment experience
- SDC constraint development for DFT test modes; timing closure using Tempus
- Ability to use agentic AI flows to automate ATPG and ATE test workflows
Responsibilities
- Generate production-quality ATPG patterns using Tessent for various fault models
- Achieve and exceed coverage targets while minimizing pattern count for ATE test time
- Debug low coverage areas and ATPG abort conditions
- Perform gate-level pattern simulation to validate pattern integrity
- Support hierarchical and flat ATPG methodologies for multi-million gate SoC designs
- Architect and develop comprehensive ATE test programs
- Own NPI silicon bring-up for structural tests and debug failures
- Deploy and optimize test programs at OSATs for yield, quality, reliability, and cost
- Develop custom test methods for product-specific requirements
Benefits
- Employees at Tesla are often offered day-one coverage with multiple medical options (some at $0 paycheck cost), dental/vision, company HSA contributions, a 401(k) match, and equity programs. Most roles also include paid time off and holidays, family-building support, employee assistance, commuter and childcare benefits, and access to discounts and wellness programs.
