Job description
NVIDIA is seeking a highly motivated DFT Engineer to join its innovative hardware team. The Design-for-Test Engineering team focuses on creating solutions for DFT architecture, verification, and post-silicon validation for advanced semiconductor chips. This role involves working on end-to-end DFT processes and collaborating with top EDA tool vendors. The engineer will also mentor junior engineers and ensure efficient delivery of scan features across product segments.
Requirements
- Pursuing a BSEE or MSEE or equivalent experience.
- Knowledge in defining scan test plans, BIST including memories and IOs, fault modeling, ATPG and fault simulation.
- Excellent analytical skills in verification and validation of test patterns and logic on multi-million gate designs using vendor tools.
- Good exposure to multiple domains including RTL & clocks design, STA, place-n-route and power.
- Experience in Silicon debug and bring-up on the ATE with an understanding of pattern formats, failure processing, and test program development.
Responsibilities
- Work on end-to-end DFT for sophisticated chips from methodology to post-silicon lifecycle support.
- Partner with EDA tool vendors to develop new capabilities for NVIDIA requirements.
- Collaborate with internal CAD teams to drive efficiency through automation.
- Work with NVIDIA VLSI and Operations teams to deliver scan features in all product segments.
- Help mentor junior engineers on test designs and trade-offs including cost and quality.
Benefits
- 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. Many roles also have generous time off and holidays, donation matching (up to $10,000), and a wide menu of extras like FSAs, commuter benefits, legal and identity-theft protection, pet insurance, and wellness discounts. Optional programs can include student-loan and home-purchase support, plus family care resources and expert medical services.
