DFT Engineer - Hardware

About this role

NVIDIA's Design-for-Test team in Bengaluru works on DFT architecture, verification and post-silicon validation for complex semiconductor chips. The DFT Engineer handles DFT end to end, from RTL design and gate-level scan insertion through verification to silicon bring-up. The role includes developing and deploying DFT methodologies for upcoming products and working with multi-functional teams to add DFT features into the chip. Occasional travel and some late-hour online meetings occur during critical milestones. It suits electrical engineering graduates with about 2+ years of experience; the position is full-time and hybrid.
