DFX / AI Silicon / Product Systems

Aditya Morey.

I build DFX platforms for AI silicon - treating scan debug, JTAG, BIST, and silicon observability as products with users, roadmaps, and measurable impact.

Senior DFX Methodology Engineer at NVIDIA. Previously Intel. Writing on AI hardware, agentic AI, and the economics of usable intelligence.

About Me

I operate at the elite intersection of AI hardware, DFX, DFT, ATE, post-silicon validation, scan debug, and product-minded platform engineering.

At NVIDIA, I build methodology and debug infrastructure for AI/HPC platforms: IEEE 1149.1, IEEE 1500, IEEE 1687, JTAG/IJTAG, IO BIST, memory BIST, scan dump, RAM dump, DFD, and secure DFX flows that make world-class silicon easier to verify, bring up, debug, and productize.

My product angle is simple: internal hardware platforms still have users, workflows, adoption, reliability, and measurable business impact. I define users, write crisp requirements, prioritize roadmaps, ship increments, and iterate until the workflow becomes boringly reliable at scale.

I am especially interested in Product Management roles in AI hardware and AI infrastructure - platform products at the boundary of silicon, systems, and developer workflows where deep hardware context and cross-team execution are decisive.
