Design for Test Engineers

Company Overview

Tessolve offers a unique combination of pre-silicon and post-silicon expertise to provide end-to-end solutions in VLSI Design, Test & Product Engineering, and Embedded Systems. We work with leading semiconductor companies worldwide, enabling innovation through deep domain knowledge and engineering excellence.

Summary of the Role

We are looking for skilled and motivated Design for Test (DFT) Engineers with 4–10 years of experience in developing and implementing advanced DFT methodologies for complex SoCs and ASICs.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and implement DFT architectures for SoC/ASIC designs.
• Utilize expertise in Scan Insertion, ATPG, MBIST, LBIST, JTAG, and Boundary Scan.
• Work on tool flows for Synopsys/Mentor/Cadence DFT tools.
• Collaborate with RTL, physical design, verification, and test teams to integrate and validate DFT features.
• Debug and resolve issues during synthesis, simulation, and silicon bring-up.
• Deliver high-quality test coverage while optimizing for area, power, and performance impact.
• Support ATE patterns generation and silicon validation.

Required Qualifications

• Must-Have:
• Strong knowledge of DFT methodologies (Scan, ATPG, BIST, Boundary Scan, JTAG, compression techniques).
• Hands-on experience with industry-standard DFT EDA tools (Synopsys DFTMAX/TetraMAX, Cadence Modus, Mentor Tessent).
• Good understanding of RTL design, logic synthesis, timing, and verification.
• Solid debugging and problem-solving skills across pre-silicon and post-silicon phases.
• Experience in handling complex SoC/ASIC designs with multi-million gates.
• Scripting skills (Perl, Python, Tcl, Shell) for automation.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
• Nice-to-Have:
• Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Electronics/Electrical/Computer Engineering or related field.
• Exposure to low-power DFT techniques and advanced nodes (7nm/5nm/3nm).
• Experience in ATE test bring-up and production test support.

Compensation and Benefits

• Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Retirement plan with employer matching.
• Paid time off and holiday leave.
• Ongoing training and professional development opportunities.

Additional Information

• This position is part of the engineering department, and the successful candidate will report to the DFT Engineering Manager.
• Openings available for this role: 1.
