DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Job Title

DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Role Summary

Design and verify Design-for-Test (DFT) architectures and test infrastructure for complex ASIC platforms used in AWS Graviton processors. Work with SoC design, verification, and bring-up teams to ensure silicon testability, debug, and production readiness.

Experience Level

Mid-level — typically requires 3+ years of professional DFT experience in a semiconductor company.

Responsibilities

Primary duties for this role include hands-on DFT architecture, verification, and support for silicon validation.

• Design and implement DFT architectures and scan networks for complex SoCs.
• Create high-quality test and debug patterns for silicon validation and manufacturing test.
• Perform static timing analysis across multiple DFT modes and ensure timing closure where applicable.
• Verify DFT logic and components using gate-level simulation, emulation, and verification platforms.
• Support silicon bring-up, debug device failures, and develop diagnostic flows.
• Collaborate with RTL designers, verification engineers, and test/ATE teams to integrate DFT solutions.

Requirements

Must-have skills and experience followed by concise nice-to-have items.

• Must-have: 3+ years of DFT engineering experience in a semiconductor company.
• Must-have: Practical experience designing and implementing scan architectures and test patterns.
• Must-have: Experience supporting silicon bring-up and device diagnostics.
• Nice-to-have: Familiarity with Verilog/SystemVerilog and gate-level simulation.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with scan insertion tools, ATPG tools, and streaming scan network concepts.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with verification platforms (UVM), FPGA/emulator environments, and ATE flows.
• Nice-to-have: Advanced scripting skills (Perl, Tcl) for automation and test infrastructure.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related technical field is listed; equivalent practical experience is accepted.
