DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Job Title

DFT Engineer, Graviton Team

Role Summary

Work as a Design-for-Test (DFT) engineer on the Graviton processor team within Annapurna Labs at AWS. The role focuses on architecting and implementing DFT solutions, developing test patterns, and supporting silicon bring-up and diagnostics for high-performance semiconductor platforms that power AWS compute infrastructure.

Experience Level

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

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include:

• Design and implement DFT architectures for complex SoCs.
• Develop robust test and debug patterns for silicon validation.
• Perform static timing analysis across multiple DFT modes.
• Verify DFT logic and components at gate level and in verification environments.
• Support silicon bring-up, device diagnostics, and failure analysis.
• Collaborate with design, verification, and validation teams to integrate DFT solutions.

Requirements

Core requirements and preferred skills.

• 3+ years of experience as a DFT engineer in a semiconductor company.
• Proven ability to design and implement DFT architectures and test patterns.
• Experience performing static timing analysis and verifying DFT logic on gate-level netlists.
• Experience supporting silicon bring-up and device diagnostics.
• Strong debugging, problem-solving skills, and ability to work in cross-functional teams.

Preferred / Nice-to-have:

• Experience with Verilog and SystemVerilog.
• Familiarity with scan insertion tools, ATPG, and gate-level simulations.
• Experience with verification platforms (UVM), FPGA/emulator environments.
• Scripting experience (Perl, Tcl).

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience; the posting explicitly allows equivalent experience in lieu of a degree.
