Job Description:

DFT Engineer for ASIC/Chip level ATPG

Broadcom's ASIC Product Division is seeking candidates for a DFT position at our Fort Collins, Colorado, Development Center. The successful candidate will lead DFT programs from chip-level specification through implementation, verification, and product release to production.

The candidate will participate in all phases of SoC DFT activities for Broadcom APD (ASIC Products Division) designs, including DFT architecture, test insertion, verification, pattern generation, coverage improvement, post-silicon debug, and yield improvement to meet product test metrics. Responsibilities also include collaborating with physical design and STA teams for DFT-mode timing closure and directly interfacing with external customers.

Responsibilities:

  • Understand Broadcom and customer DFT feature requirements and DPPM goals to define appropriate DFT specifications for the ASIC.
  • Implement DFT architectures, including Scan, MBIST, TAP, LBIST, IO, SerDes, and IP DFT integration.
  • Perform ATPG and verification at the ASIC/chip level, as well as rapid bring-up of ATE test patterns.
  • Collaborate closely with STA and design integration engineers for timing and design closure.
  • Generate, verify, and debug test vectors prior to tapeout release.
  • Validate and debug test vectors on ATE during silicon bring-up.
  • Assist with silicon failure analysis, diagnostics, and yield improvement efforts.
  • Interface with customers, physical design teams, and global test engineering/manufacturing teams.
  • Work closely with IP DFT engineers and cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Debug customer-returned parts (RMA) on ATE.
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation (such as Python, TCL, or C++), with an emphasis on applying AI-augmented development to streamline test flows.
  • Develop innovative DFT solutions for advanced process nodes (3nm and beyond).
  • Automate DFT and test vector generation flows.

Skills/Experience:

  • Strong DFT architecture and implementation background (Scan, BIST, IO/Analog DFT, IJTAG/IEEE 1687, IEEE 1149.1/1149.6)
  • Proficiency with EDA tools for scan insertion, compression, and ATPG (e.g., DFT Compiler, TestKompress, TetraMax, FastScan)
  • Hands-on experience with memory and logic BIST strategies, verification, and debug across embedded memories (SRAM, CAM, RF, ROM)
  • Experience with In-Field testing solutions a plus
  • Extensive experience in Verilog coding, testbench development, ATPG pattern generation, simulation, and timing constraints/Test-STA
  • Solid foundation in digital/analog circuit design, device physics, silicon manufacturing, synthesis, and transistor reliability
  • Strong problem-solving, root-cause debug, statistical process control, and data analysis skills for silicon yield and quality improvement
  • Effective cross-functional communication and project management skills to collaborate across physical design, test engineering, and operations
  • Experience with ATE silicon bring-up, debug, and high-speed IP/interface testing (SerDes, DDR, PCIe, Ethernet, CXL, Tessent SSN) is a plus

Education & Experience:

  • Bachelors in Electrical/Electronic/Computer Engineering and 12+ years of relevant industry experience or Masters Degree in Electrical/Electronic/Computer Engineering and 10+ years of relevant industry experience

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
