DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Job Title

DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Role Summary

Join the Graviton/Annapurna Labs DFT team to design and validate design-for-test architectures for high-performance ASIC/SoC platforms that power AWS infrastructure. The role focuses on DFT architecture, test pattern development, verification, timing analysis, and silicon bring-up support.

Experience Level

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

Responsibilities

Deliver and validate DFT solutions across the chip lifecycle; collaborate with design, verification, and bring-up teams.

• Design and implement advanced DFT architectures for complex SoCs.
• Develop robust test and debug patterns for silicon validation.
• Perform static timing analysis across multiple DFT modes and identify timing closure issues.
• Verify DFT logic, scan chains, and related components at RTL and gate level.
• Support silicon bring-up, device diagnostics, and failure analysis.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate DFT into the design flow.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience; preferred skills listed separately.

• 3+ years experience as a DFT engineer in a semiconductor company.
• Hands-on experience with DFT architecture and test pattern development.
• Experience with scan insertion tools, ATPG, and gate-level simulation for test validation.
• Proven ability to perform timing analysis and debug timing issues introduced by DFT.
• Experience supporting silicon bring-up and device-level diagnostics.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a collaborative engineering team.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog and UVM-based verification environments.
• Familiarity with FPGA/emulator platforms and deterministic in-fleet test concepts.
• Scripting experience (Perl, Tcl) and familiarity with Tessent or similar DFT toolsets.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field is stated as the baseline; equivalent practical experience is accepted.
