Person is this role should have solid prior DFT verification experience. Expected to be good team player who has excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with other engineers located in different sites/time zones. Should process strong analytical and problem-solving skills and willing to learn and ready to take on problems.
KEY RESPONSIBLITIES :
- Develop and execute pre-silicon verification test plans for DFT features of the next gen Zen architecture-based Server SoC.
- Develop directed and random verification tests to fully validate DFT functionality.
- Verify DFT design blocks and subsystems (such as JTAG, MBIST, High speed IO PHY, Scan, Security, Fuse, Clocks, Resets, etc.) using complex SV or C++ verification environments. Construct System Verilog and/or C/C++ models and test sequence libraries for simulation.
- Build test bench components including Agents, Monitors and Scoreboards for DUT. Compose tests, assertions, checkers, validation vectors and coverage bins to ensure verification completeness.
- Debug regression test failures to expose specification and implementation issues. Identify and address areas of concern to meet design quality objectives.
- Develop high coverage and cost-effective test patterns, and take part in ATE bring-up.
- Post silicon ATE and System level debug support of the test patterns delivered. Optimize the test patterns to improve the test quality and reduce test costs.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE :
- Minimum 10 years of experience in DFT feature verification (such as JTAG, MBIST, SCAN, fuse, IO-PHY loopback testing)
- Strong background in Verilog, System Verilog (SV), SVA, UVM verification methodologies and C++
- Strong debug skills and experience with debug tools such as Verdi
- Experience with EDA simulation tools like Synopsys VCS, Cadence NCSIM, Verdi
- Experience with scripting languages like Tcl/Perl/Ruby/Python
- Working knowledge of Unix/Linux OS, file version control systems
ADDITIONAL SKILLS:
- Experience working on DFT verification for complex SOCs
- Experience working on multiple SoCs from pre-silicon to post-silicon phase is a great plus
- Strong analytical/problem solving skills and pronounced attention to details required
- Excellent written and verbal communication is a must
