Description
We are a leading Design for Test (DFT) group at Cisco, delivering end-to-end solutions for flagship products, including Cisco Silicon One.
Our team operates in a hybrid model, with three days a week in the office in Midtown Tel Aviv or Caesarea, fostering collaboration and technical excellence in a startup-like atmosphere within a stable, global corporation.
As a Design Verification engineer, you will lead and drive DFT verification activities within the Cisco SiliconOne DFT team.
Key responsibilities:
- Develop verification plans, environments, checkers, assertions, and coverage models for DFT features.
- Verify DFT architecture and implementation in close collaboration with DFT, design, architecture, and verification teams.
- Work on verification of scan, MBIST, IJTAG/JTAG, test access mechanisms, DFT controllers, and related SoC-level test features.
- Debug complex pre-silicon issues across RTL, verification environments, and DFT logic.
- Contribute to scalable methodologies, reusable verification components, and best practices for DFT DV.
Minimum qualifications:
- B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- 5+ years of experience in design verification roles.
- Strong experience with SystemVerilog and UVM-based verification environments.
- Experience developing verification plans, coverage models, assertions, and debug flows.
- Strong communication skills and ability to work closely with cross-functional teams.
- Motivation to learn DFT concepts and become a key contributor in the DFT DV domain.
Preferred qualifications:
- Familiarity with DFT concepts such as scan insertion, memory BIST, ATPG, boundary scan, and silicon test flows.
- Experience with complex SoC verification, networking silicon, or high-performance AI-driven silicon.
- System-level understanding of large-scale chip architecture and integration.
- Ability to build new methodologies and establish verification activity from the ground up.
- High attention to detail, ownership mindset, and willingness to grow into new technical domains.
