DFT Engineer

About This Role

• About the Role Intel's CPU Cores Engineering organization is looking for a motivated Junior Design-for-Test (DFT) Engineer to join the ATPG team developing next-generation CPU technologies.
• In this role, you will work alongside experienced engineers on the development, integration, and validation of DFT solutions for complex CPU core designs.
• The position provides an opportunity to gain hands-on experience with advanced semiconductor technologies, ATPG methodologies, silicon bring-up, and production test flows.
• You will collaborate with teams across design, verification, validation, and manufacturing while building deep technical expertise in DFT and test methodologies.
• Key Responsibilities: Support ATPG generation, fault coverage analysis, and pattern debug activities.
• Participate in DFT integration and verification for features such as Scan, MBIST, and TAP/JTAG.
• Work with senior engineers to develop and debug manufacturing test content.
• Assist in analyzing stuck-at and transition fault coverage results.
• Contribute to RTL-level DFT implementation and validation activities.
• Develop scripts and automation tools to improve DFT workflows and debug efficiency.
• Collaborate with design, validation, and physical design teams to support project execution.
• Support silicon bring-up and post-silicon debug activities.
