The construct chain al kitpōt {עַל כִּתְפֹת | ʿal kitpōt} “upon shoulder pieces” with hāʾēpōd {הָאֵפֹד | hāʾēpōd} “the ephod” precisely locates the placement.
In context — Exodus 39:7
And He placed them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the sons of Israel, as the LORD had commanded Moses .
