As a Senior DFT Engineer at NVIDIA, you will develop and implement advanced Design for Test (DFT) architecture for next-generation AI chips. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to apply innovative DFT methodologies, ensuring the delivery of high-quality products. This role offers the opportunity to work in a diverse and supportive environment, contributing to the revolution of AI technology. Your expertise will help drive the creation of test vectors and optimize DFT implementation.

• Bachelor's or M.S. in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering with 5+ years of industry experience in DFT for high-performance ASICs.
• Practical experience with SCAN/MBIST/Test generation tools and processes for large SoC/ASIC.
• Domain expertise in DFT techniques such as ATPG, test pattern translation, yield learning, scan compression, MBIST, IEEE 1500 standard, and LBIST.
• Familiarity with ATPG Streaming SCAN Network (SSN) implementation.
• Experience with UDFMs like Cell Aware and Small Delay Defect.
• Consistent track record in yield estimation and test optimization.
• Experience working with real silicon in the lab and debugging DFT test sequences on ATE.
• Solid understanding of RTL to GDS methodologies and formal equivalence.
• Excellent coding skills in Tcl and Python.
• Outstanding interpersonal and organizational skills.

• Define and implement SCAN, MBIST, and JTAG debug structures using sophisticated DFT techniques.
• Drive the creation of ATPG and MBIST test vectors.
• Build DFT timing constraints and collaborate with the Physical Design and STA sign-off team for timing closure.
• Work closely with the post-silicon team to bring up test patterns on silicon.
• Collaborate with the CAD methodology team to introduce AI-driven optimizations for DFT implementation.

• Employees at NVIDIA are often offered comprehensive, day-one benefits—including medical, dental, and vision coverage with HSA support, life and disability insurance, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) with auto-enrollment.
