About the Role

As an ASIC Technical Leader, you will shape Cisco’s industry-defining Silicon One architecture by driving Design-for-Test (DFT) strategies. You will bridge the gap between architecture, physical design, and post-silicon validation to ensure best-in-class quality for high-complexity ASICs, directly fueling the next generation of routing and switching solutions.

Responsibilities

• Implement Hardware Design-for-Test (DFT) features supporting ATE, in-system test, debug, and diagnostics.
• Develop innovative DFT IP in collaboration with multi-functional teams.
• Coordinate testability features in RTL during full chip design integration.
• Enable integration and validation of Test logic in all implementation and post-silicon validation phases.
• Participate in the creation of innovative Hardware DFT & physical design aspects for new silicon device models, bare die & stacked die.
• Drive re-usable test and debug strategies.
• Craft solutions and debug with minimal mentorship.

Requirements

• Bachelors + 12 years of related experience, or Masters + 8 years of related experience, or PhD + 5 years of related experience.
• Experience with Jtag protocols, Scan and BIST architectures, including memory BIST, boundary scan and post silicon debug.
• Experience with ATPG and EDA tools like TestMax, Tetramax, Tessent tool sets, PrimeTime.
• Prior verification experience including System Verilog Logic Equivalency checking and validating the Test-timing of the design.

Skills

• Verilog design experience – developing custom DFT logic & IP integration
• Familiarity with functional verification
• DFT CAD development – Test Architecture, Methodology and Infrastructure
• Test Static Timing Analysis
• Post silicon validation using DFT patterns
