THE ROLE:

This role is a unique opportunity to join a Centralized Team that oversees all of the DFT Implementation and Methodology across all of AMD. The team focus is to implement cutting edge technology regarding DFT tools, methodologies so that AMD stays at the forefront of the Semiconductor Industry.

THE PERSON:

You are an experienced individual in DFT Implementation and Verification. You are interested in performing in all aspects of DFT Design:  RTL Integration, synthesis, equivalency checking, timing analysis and closure; Writing and maintaining Documentation. You are also someone who loves to Mentor, Coach, and provide technical guidance to others. You are looking to bring your high performing skills to a high performing, high impact team within AMD.

THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE WILL BE: 

• Performing design-for-test (DFT) RTL design using architectural specifications and design generation flows
• Performing DFT RTL integration, synthesis, equivalency checking, timing analysis and closure including defining constraints
• Writing and maintain DFT documentation and specifications
• Developing CAD software, scripts and other support technology to enable successful construction of DFT logics in complex SoC design
• Performing scan insertion, ATPG verification and test pattern generation
• Providing DFT feature bring-up and pattern debug support to production engineering team during first silicon bring-up, qualification and failure analysis

KEY QUALIFICATIONS:

• Experience in complex ASIC design (multi-million gates) in DFT/DFD techniques such as JTAG/IEEE standards, scan and ATPG, on-chip test pattern compression and at-speed testing using PLL, memory BIST and repair, logic BIST, power-gating, on-chip debug logic, testing of high speed SerDes IO and analog design
• Understanding various technologies that must work with DFT/DFD technology such as CPU's, Graphics engines, memory and I/O controllers, etc.
