I folks, recently received the offer for the dft engineer role at IBM Currently I have experience in silicon validation and firmware development. Should I go ahead with DFT as it adds any value to my resume or not. Also received an offer for silicon validation role. What should I choose considering the current experience of 9 years around. Dft 44+ 8(jb) Post si- 50lac +10 lac(jb)
Changing from Post Si to DFT with lesser TC doesn't make sense. Also you can leverage other offers to match if you are really interested in DFT
The company offering for post silicon validation role is Alphawave semi i.e. kind of new company not sure much about IBM has better work life balance.
Do you have option of staying in your current role and keep looking for new opportunities? You can leverage the current offer but just making a move because you don't have a better option currently is not a good idea
The point here is, Does DFT really add any value of that sort.
Not much as per my observation
Becoz usually I see lot of opening for specific DFT role, so thinking of exploring that.
If you can adapt you can still think of Front end DV or RTL/Architecture role that would be upgraded in profile
Numbers?
