NVIDIA is seeking a highly motivated DFT Engineer to join our silicon engineering team. In this role, you will work closely with Design, Test, CAD, and Silicon Engineering teams to validate and debug Design-for-Test (DFT) features in some of the industry's most advanced GPUs and SoCs. This position offers an excellent opportunity to learn industry-leading DFT methodologies and contribute to cutting-edge products powering AI, accelerated computing, and next-generation platforms. What you'll be doing Verify DFT features and test infrastructures, including Scan, MBIST, JTAG, and related functionality. Collaborate with Design, Integration, CAD, and Test Engineering teams to define verification scope and test strategies. Execute verification and validation activities at the IP, subsystem, and full-chip levels. Perform RTL and gate-level debugging to identify and resolve design and test issues. Generate and validate test patterns and support silicon bring-up and debug activities. Improve engineering productivity through scripting, automation, and workflow enhancements. Support verification flow and methodology improvements. What we need to see 1+ years of experience with an M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Microelectronics, IC Design, or a closely related discipline. Strong understanding of digital circuits, computer architecture, and semiconductor design fundamentals. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and debugging skills. Familiarity with RTL simulation and debug tools such as Verdi and VCS.
