Senior Soc Dft Engineer, Google Cloud

Google Google · Big Tech · Tel Aviv, Israel +1

This role is for a Senior SOC DFT Engineer focused on designing and implementing Design for Testing (DFT) solutions for large-scale ASICs. The responsibilities include leading DFT architecture, developing flows and automation, managing team workload, and ensuring DFT quality throughout the ASIC development lifecycle. The role requires extensive experience in ATPG, DFT design and verification, and leading DFT activities.

What you'd actually do

  1. Lead and execute activities in the design, implementation, and verification of DFT solutions for large-scale ASICs.
  2. Develop DFT strategy and architecture, including hierarchical DFT, Memory Built-In Self Test (MBIST), and Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG).
  3. Work with other Engineering teams (e.g., Design, Verification, Physical Design) to ensure that DFT requirements are met and mutual dependencies are managed.
  4. Manage the DFT team's workload and deliverables, provide technical leadership and guidance to the team.
  5. Lead DFT execution of a silicon project (e.g., planning, execution, tracking, quality, and signoff).
