DFT Engineer

At Kandou, we are redefining the economics of AI infrastructure. Our mission is to democratise AI by significantly reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of hardware systems — a critical barrier to scalable adoption.

Our proprietary MIMO-over-copper technology powers a high-performance, chiplet-based AI memory fabric that is both scalable and energy-efficient. Unlike traditional interconnects, our solution reduces power consumption significantly while preserving high bandwidth and ultra-low latency — unlocking unprecedented efficiency for AI training and inference at scale.

Kandou’s architecture is not just an incremental improvement — it’s a foundational shift in how AI

hardware is built for the future.

We are actively seeking a resourceful DFT Engineer based in Hyderabad OR Bangalore

• Pattern simulations with timing
• Defining test mode timing constraints, analyzing the timing reports and converge timing
• Developing cycle accurate functional patterns using IJTAG methodology
• Closely working with the test and production engineering teams to debug and bring up devices at probe and final test
• Debugging silicon issues

Skills:

• Excellent communication skills, and strong team player with can do type of attitude
• Excellent debugging skills
• Good scripting skills to develop automation

 Qualifications:

• 5+ years of DFT experience including implementation, test pattern development, and simulation
• Proven experience in contributing to DFT solution to complex designs
