Description

The team that built the innovative Silicon IP AZ1 Neural Edge that is powering the latest generation of Echo devices is looking for a Senior DFT Engineer to continue to innovate on behalf of our customers. We are a part of Amazon Lab126 that revolutionized reading with our Kindle family of products and reimagined user experience through Echo and Alexa. We want you to help us build on the success of our first generation of ML accelerator at edge.

Work hard. Have Fun. Make history.

At Amazon, DFT (Design-for-Testability) is a multi-faceted job that involves architecture definition, logic design, verification, test patterns generation, chip bring-up and more. As a DFT Engineer, you will impact and see the device through its entire lifecycle, from definition stage to high volume production. You will be working in close collaboration with multiple VLSI engineering groups including design, verification, backend, test, reliability and more.

As part of the SOC DFT team, you will:

• Develop and implement DFT architecture

• Design and verify DFT logic and components

• Drive the sign-off on a generation of high-quality test and debug patterns for high coverage on silicon

• Review sign-off level timing closure using static timing analysis of various DFT modes

• Contribute to wafer probe testing, ATE testing, silicon bring-up, diagnosis and support for physical failure analysis

• Take high volume chips to production with high coverage ATE test program

We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:

Sunnyvale, CA, USA

Basic Qualifications

• BS degree in Computer Engineering/Electrical Engineering.

• 7+ years in semiconductor companies as a Sr. DFT Engineer.
