Job Description

As a Silicon AI/ML DFT Engineer at Google, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration. You will drive cutting-edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) technology powering Google's most demanding AI/ML applications. You'll be part of a diverse team pushing boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's TPU. You will define, implement, and deploy advanced Design for Testing (DFT) methodologies for digital, mixed-signal chips, or IPs. You will define silicon test strategies, Implement, and create DFT specifications for next-generation SoCs while working with the DFT Organization. You will design, insert, and verify the DFT logic and prepare for post-silicon and co-work/debug with test engineers. You will be responsible for reducing test cost, increasing production quality, and enhancing yield.

Must have:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
3 years of experience in DFT specification definition, architecture, and insertion
Experience using EDA test tools (e.g., Spyglass, Tessent)
Experience with ASIC DFT synthesis, STA, simulation, and verification flow
Develop DFT strategy and architecture
Insert DFT logic
Insert and hook up MBIST logic
Document DFT architecture and test sequences
Complete all Test Design Rule Checks (TDRC)

Good to have:

Master's degree in Electrical Engineering
Experience in IP integration (e.g., memories, test controllers, TAP, and MBIST)
Experience in SoC cycles, including silicon bring-up and silicon debug activities
Experience in fault modeling
Experience working with ATE engineers
