Senior DFX Engineer, Volume Diagnosis - VLSI

Join NVIDIA's VLSI team in Taiwan as a Senior DFX Engineer, Volume Diagnosis. You will lead volume diagnosis and yield-learning strategies to improve manufacturability, accelerate root-cause identification, and guide corrective actions.

Responsibilities

• Implement volume diagnosis using industry-standard diagnostic solutions to process fail logs, localize defects, and generate actionable analysis results.
• Drive yield improvement through data-driven debug, systematic defect Pareto analysis, and rapid feedback loops that convert diagnosis results into corrective actions for manufacturing and product teams.
• Partner with multi-functional teams worldwide across DFX, test engineering, operations, foundry, and failure-analysis participants to accelerate root-cause isolation and production issue resolution.
• Analyze production test and diagnosis data to discover yield limiters and improve test efficiency, silicon quality, and manufacturability.

Requirements

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of experience in DFT, DFX, product engineering, silicon debug, yield engineering, or a closely related semiconductor field.
• Strong understanding of volume diagnosis, systematic defect analysis, and yield improvement in volume manufacturing.
• Hands-on experience with commercial diagnosis tools and production diagnosis flows, including fail-log processing, root-cause analysis, and using silicon data to improve yield, quality, and test efficiency.
• Collaboration and interpersonal skills for working across global engineering, operations, and manufacturing teams.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with physical failure analysis flows at chip foundries, including how software diagnosis guides direct-PFA candidate selection and defect localization.
• Knowledge of ATE, CP, FT, SLT, or board-level test flows and their impact on yield improvement.
