Responsibilities include, but not limited to:

• →Define, implement, and optimize DFT architectures and test strategies for NAND designs, covering both digital and custom circuit blocks.
• →Analyze testability and coverage, ensuring compliance with quality, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.
• →Develop and validate test sequences, NAND test algorithms, and verification methodologies at block and chip level.
• →Work alongside multi-functional teams and Product Engineering to support DFT integration, silicon bring-up, debug, and production ramp.
• →Document DFT architectures, methodologies, and results, contributing to continuous improvement of test quality and efficiency.

The candidate is expected to leverage AI-powered tools and data-driven methodologies to improve engineering productivity, accelerate problem solving, support design analysis, and enhance technical decision making. Responsibilities may include:

• Applying AI-assisted engineering tools for code generation, review, debug, and documentation.
• Applying AI-enabled analysis techniques to large design, verification, characterization, or silicon datasets.
• Finding opportunities to automate repetitive engineering tasks through AI technologies.
• Evaluating and adopting emerging AI capabilities to improve efficiency, quality, and innovation within the design process.
• Collaborating with multi functional teams to integrate AI-driven workflows into engineering activities.

• M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field.
• Strong understanding of digital design, verification, and test/DFT principles.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as C/C++ and Python.
• Hands-on experience with simulation and validation methodologies for digital or mixed-signal designs.
• Strong problem-solving and communication skills, with ability to work effectively in multi-functional teams.

• Experience in NAND Flash or other non-volatile memory technologies.
• Familiarity with design automation, scripting, or AI-assisted design and test approaches.
• Experience with silicon validation, debug, and yield analysis.
• Laboratory experience with silicon testing (wafer and package level) and test equipment.
