- Excellent analytical skills in verification and validation of test patterns and logic on complex and multi-million gate designs.
- Good exposure to cross functional areas including RTL & clocks design, STA, place-n-route and power, to ensure we are making the right trade-offs.
- Experience in Silicon debug and bring-up on ATEs with an understanding of pattern formats, failure processing, and test program development.
- Strong programming and scripting skills in Perl, Python or Tcl desired.
- Exceptional written, oral and interpersonal skills.
