Senior DFT Engineer Resume Example

Designed and implemented electrical equipment, facilities and systems for commercial and domestic purposes.

• Key player on the DFT implementation across scan insertion, structural pattern generation, hard macro DFT verification, gate-level simulation.
• Drove IP DFT verification and test coverage enhancement. Working closely with RTL designers to improve test coverage and reduce area overhead.
• Analyzed and developed more efficient IP DFTM flow methods to increase productivity and reduce DFT implementation time cycles.
• Single handedly drove test program deployment by extensively interfacing with product engineering team, physical design team and design verification team, which had directly contribute to excellent quality of design deliverables. On top of that, extended the experience and best practices to other design team.
• Gained experience in silicon debug and diagnosis
• Mentored and guided new hired DFT engineer and co-op on DFTM methodology, flow and implementation.
• Won Growth Super Star award for the outstanding performance in execution

Design and implement a VLSI diagnosis tool that can efficiently diagnose open and short defects in circuits

• Designed and implemented a fast and exact critical path algorithm which is more efficient than previous approaches
• Proposed a probabilistic ranking method to rank suspects
• Applied fault models to further refine the ranking and help localize the defects

Resolved the fault counting problem - that different ATPG vendors disagree on the fault list and fault coverage metrics

• Developed a standard method for fault counting with DPC so that different ATPG tool results can be compared
• Co-developed a faulting counting tool in C++
• Ran experiments with industry designs and compared ATPG results from Mentor Fastscan and Synopsys Tetramax
