Job Summary

Job Description

As a System on a Chip (SoC) Design for Test (DFT) Engineer at Google Cloud, you'll define, implement, and deploy advanced DFT methodologies for digital or mixed-signal chips. Responsibilities include defining silicon test strategies, DFT architecture, and creating DFT specifications for next-generation SoCs. You'll design, insert, and verify DFT logic, preparing for post-silicon work and debugging with test engineers. You'll also develop DFT strategy and architecture (e.g., hierarchical DFT, Memory Built-In Self Test (MBIST), ATPG), complete Test Design Rule Checks (TDRC), insert DFT logic, MBIST logic, and document DFT architecture and test sequences. This role involves working on custom silicon solutions for Google's direct-to-consumer products, contributing to innovation behind products used by millions.
Must have:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent
  • 3+ years DFT experience
  • ASIC DFT synthesis, simulation, and verification
  • DFT specification, definition, architecture, and insertion
Good to have:
  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering
  • Experience with ATE engineers
  • IP integration experience
  • SoC cycles, silicon bring-up, and silicon debug
  • Fault modeling experience

Job Details


Minimum qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3 years of experience with Design For Test (DFT) methodologies, DFT verification, and industry-standard DFT tools.
  • Experience with ASIC DFT synthesis, simulation, and verification flow.
  • Experience in DFT specification, definition, architecture, and insertion.

Preferred qualifications:

  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering.
  • Experience working with ATE engineers (e.g., silicon bring-up, patterns generation, debug, validation on automatic test equipment, debug of silicon issues).
  • Experience in IP integration (e.g., memories, test controllers, Test Access Point (TAP), and Memory Built-In Self Test (MBIST)).
  • Experience in SoC cycles, silicon bringup, and silicon debug activities.
  • Experience in fault modeling.

About the job

Be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's direct-to-consumer products. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide. Your expertise will shape the next generation of hardware experiences, delivering unparalleled performance, efficiency, and integration.
