Overview Morse Micro is a leading manufacturer of next‑generation Wi‑Fi technology, focused on building 802.11ah chips for the Internet of Things.

Responsibilities - Own end‑to‑end DFT for wireless SoCs, including architecture, implementation, verification, tape‑out sign‑off, silicon bring‑up, and production support.

- Define DFT architecture and coverage goals, optimizing test quality, pattern count, power, area, and tester time/constraints.
- Architect and implement SCAN solutions, including chains, sub‑chains, masking, compressors, decompressors, SDCs, and ensure post‑synthesis SCAN DRC cleanliness.
- Develop and integrate at‑speed test methodologies using OPCG for intra‑ and inter‑clock domain testing.
- Implement low‑power DFT techniques such as power‑aware scan, clock staggering, and test‑point insertion to meet ATE/package limits.
- Own MBIST integration and diagnostics for all on‑chip memories, including JTAG‑based debug diagnostic flows.
- Implement and maintain IEEE 1149.1 JTAG/TAP, BSDL, IEEE 1500 wrappers, and DFT test‑mode/pin‑mux control.
- Integrate DFT for third‑party hardened IPs (e.g., PLL, USB PHY, RRAM, FUSE), including wrapper design and vendor pattern integration.
- Generate and validate ATPG (stuck‑at, transition, path‑delay) and MBIST patterns, perform GLS with SDF, deliver WGL/STIL, and support first silicon ATE bring‑up/debug.




- Drive silicon debug, yield analysis, DFT scripting/automation, and cross‑functional collaboration with frontend, verification, PnR, and ATE in quick‑paced tape‑out programs.
