About HPE Networking

At HPE Networking, we are redefining the future of high-performance networking. Our silicon team is at the forefront of innovation, developing cutting-edge ASICs for next-generation networking platforms. We are looking for a seasoned Design-for-Test (DFT) Engineer to join our team and contribute to the development of advanced 3nm and beyond networking silicon.

Job Summary

As a DFT Engineer at HPE Networking, you will play a critical role in ensuring the testability and reliability of our high-speed, high-complexity ASICs. You will work closely with front-end design, physical design, and verification teams to architect and implement robust DFT solutions that meet stringent performance and quality requirements.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define and implement DFT architecture for high-performance networking ASICs at 3nm and beyond.
  • Collaborate with RTL and physical design teams to integrate scan, compression, boundary scan, and MBIST features.
  • Develop and validate ATPG patterns for stuck-at, transition, and path-delay fault models.
  • Analyze and resolve DFT-related issues including ATPG DRC violations, simulation mismatches, and timing violations.
  • Apply test constraints and perform STA analysis to ensure timing closure in test modes.
  • Support silicon bring-up and ATE pattern validation using industry-standard formats (STIL, WGL, SVF).
  • Conduct silicon failure analysis and contribute to system-level debug and yield improvement.
  • Automate DFT flows and analysis using scripting languages such as Perl and Tcl.

Required Skills & Experience

  • 10+ years of hands-on DFT experience in ASIC design, preferably in networking or high-speed digital domains.
  • Deep understanding of fault models : stuck-at, transition, path-delay.
  • Expertise in scan compression, ATPG, and MBIST architecture.
  • Experience with Siemens Tessent tools : SSN, JTAG, IJTAG, MBIST, and memory repair.
  • Proficiency with Synopsys tools : DFT Compiler, DFTMAX, Tetramax, Design Compiler.
  • Simulation experience with Synopsys VCS and Cadence NC-Verilog.
  • Timing analysis using PrimeTime and Cadence Tempus.
  • Able to define test constraints and review STA reports to ensure timing closure in test modes.
  • Debugging with waveform tools such as Novas and SimVision.
  • Familiarity with ATE pattern formats (STIL, WGL) and JTAG SVF.
  • Strong scripting skills in Perl and Tcl for automation and analysis.

    • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in silicon bring-up and system-level failure analysis for advanced process nodes (3nm and below).
  • Familiarity with high-speed networking protocols and system-level test strategies.
  • Exposure to yield analysis and production test optimization.
