What are the responsibilities and job description for the Silicon Validation Engineer position at Mogi I/O : OTT/Podcast/Short Video Apps for you?
Location: Austin, Texas (Onsite, 5 days/week)
Industry: Semiconductor, AI Infrastructure, Cloud Hardware
Salary: $170,000–$200,000 USD Equity (4-year vesting)
Experience: 5–8 years (DFT specialization required)
Visa: H1-B sponsorship available
Skills – DFT Specification & Architecture, ATPG, MBIST, JTAG, Silicon Bring-up & Test (ATE), Scan Chains, DFT Compression, Logic BIST, EDA Test Tools (DFT Max, Tessent, Modus, SpyGlass, Design/Fusion Compiler, TestKompress), IP Integration, ASIC Synthesis & Verification, Problem-Solving, Communication
Summary
Well-funded hardware startup (with $180MM in recent funding, backed by leading VCs) seeks an experienced DFT Engineer to innovate and own design-for-test (DFT) methodologies for advanced digital and mixed-signal SoCs. This hands-on role collaborates cross-functionally to define, implement, and deploy robust DFT strategies for next-generation programmable DSP chips powering the world’s fastest AI and cloud infrastructure.
