An integrated circuit system includes a first device wafer having a first semiconductor layer proximate to a first metal layer including a first conductor disposed within a first metal layer oxide. A second device wafer having a second semiconductor layer proximate to a second metal layer including a second conductor is disposed within a second metal layer oxide. A frontside of the first device wafer is bonded to a frontside of the second device wafer at a bonding interface. A conductive path couples the first conductor to the second conductor through the bonding interface. A first metal EMI shield is disposed in one of the first metal oxide layer and second metal layer oxide layer. The first EMI shield is included in a metal layer of said one of the first metal oxide layer and the second metal layer oxide layer nearest to the bonding interface.
