DFT Lead

Eridu AI is a Silicon Valley-based hardware startup pioneering infrastructure solutions that accelerate training and inference for large-scale AI models. Today’s AI performance is frequently limited by system-level bottlenecks. Eridu AI delivers multiple industry-first innovations across semiconductors, software, and systems to unlock greater GPU utilization, reduce capital and power costs, and maximize data center efficiency. The company’s solutions and value proposition have been validated by several leading hyperscalers.

The company is led by a veteran team of Silicon Valley executives and engineers with decades of experience in state-of-the‑art semiconductors, optics, software, and systems, including serial entrepreneur Drew Perkins, co‑founder of Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN), Lightera (acq. by Ciena), Gainspeed (acq. by Nokia) and Mojo Vision (World’s leading micro‑LED company and developer of the first augmented reality contact lens).

• Define the DFT architecture of a multi‑chip system SOC involving all aspects of test design functions such as Scan, BIST, Memory Repair, BSD ( ACJTAG/DCJTAG).
• Proficiency in Synthesis design constraints (e.g., SDC).
• Prior experience with Serialize rs/Deserializers.
• Sound proficiency in either Mentor/Synopsys Test Tools (required). Proficiency is synthesis,
• Define and implement OCC. Exposure to advanced DFT techniques like LBIST and streaming preferred.
• Fluent in RTL level and Gate level simulation.
• Supervise ATPG generation and achieve high coverage goals for scan and @speed scan.

• Knowledge using synthesis, DFT & Simulation CAD tools.
• Familiarity with logic & physical design principles to drive low‑power & higher‑performance designs.
• Fluency in scripting in some of these languages:
  Unix, Perl, Python, and TCL.
• Good understanding of device physics and experience in deep sub‑micron technologies 7nm or below.
• Prior exposure to EMIB architectures and bridge is a plus.
