Job Summary

Job Description

As a System on a Chip (SoC) Design for Test (DFT) Engineer at Google Cloud, you'll be responsible for defining, implementing, and deploying advanced DFT methodologies for digital or mixed-signal chips. You will define silicon test strategies, DFT architecture, create DFT specifications for next-generation SoCs, design, insert, and verify DFT logic, and prepare for post-silicon and co-work/debug with test engineers. This role involves developing DFT strategy and architecture (e.g., hierarchical DFT, MBIST, ATPG), completing TDRC, inserting DFT logic, MBIST logic, documenting DFT architecture, test sequences, and boot-up sequences associated with test pins. You'll contribute to custom silicon solutions powering Google's direct-to-consumer products, shaping the next generation of hardware experiences.
Must have:
  • Bachelor's degree in EE or related field
  • 3+ years DFT experience
  • ASIC DFT synthesis, simulation, verification
  • DFT specification, definition, architecture, insertion
Good to have:
  • Master's degree in EE
  • Experience with ATE engineers
  • IP integration experience
  • SoC cycles, silicon bring-up, debug
  • Fault modeling

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.
