Role overview

Principle DFT Engineer at NXP Semiconductors

We are seeking an experienced DFT Engineer (7–12 years) with strong hands-on expertise in Scan Insertion, ATPG, and Gate-Level Simulation (GLS) for complex SoC designs.

Employment details

  • Location: Bangalore, Noida

Additional role details

  • The candidate will be responsible for implementing and verifying scan architectures, performing scan insertion, generating and analyzing ATPG patterns for stuck-at and transition faults, and executing GLS with and without SDF for DFT validation.
  • The role requires close collaboration with RTL, physical design, and test teams to ensure high fault coverage, clean DFT signoff, and timely tape-out support.
  • Proficiency with industry-standard DFT tools (Mentor/Siemens Tessent, Synopsys, or Cadence), solid Verilog/SystemVerilog skills, and the ability to debug DFT and GLS issues independently are essential.
  • Prior experience supporting pre- and post-silicon activities is a plus.
