DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Job Title

DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Role Summary

Design-for-Test (DFT) engineer on the Graviton semiconductor team responsible for architecting and verifying DFT infrastructure for complex SoCs that power AWS cloud services. The role collaborates with silicon design, verification, and bring-up teams to deliver robust testability, debug, and diagnostic capabilities for production silicon.

Experience Level

Mid-level — typically requires 3+ years of semiconductor DFT engineering experience.

Responsibilities

The primary responsibilities focus on DFT architecture, verification, and silicon diagnostics:

• Design and implement DFT architectures for complex semiconductor platforms.
• Develop test and debug patterns to ensure manufacturable, high-quality silicon.
• Perform static timing analysis across multiple DFT modes.
• Verify DFT logic and components, including scan and related test structures.
• Support silicon bring-up, device diagnostics, and failure analysis.
• Collaborate with RTL, verification, and hardware teams to integrate DFT features.

Requirements

Must-have skills and experience followed by useful but non-mandatory skills.

• Must-have: 3+ years of experience in a semiconductor company as a DFT engineer.
• Must-have: Practical experience designing and implementing DFT architectures and test/debug patterns.
• Must-have: Experience supporting silicon bring-up and device diagnostics.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog and gate-level simulations.
• Nice-to-have: Familiarity with scan insertion tools and ATPG flows.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with verification platforms (UVM), FPGA, and emulator environments.
• Nice-to-have: Scripting skills (Perl, Tcl) for automation and flow development.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent practical experience. (The posting allows equivalent experience in place of a degree.)
