Job description

Department Introduction

The Non-Volatile NAND Design Engineering group is responsible for the design and optimization of analog, digital and mixed-signal circuits enabling advanced NAND Flash memory products. Close collaboration with cross-functional teams ensures scalable, manufacturable, and reliable solutions across technology nodes.

Position Overview

As a Design Engineer in the NVE Design Engineering Core group at Micron Semiconductor Italia, you will contribute to the development of memory products that are best-in-class, using your specialized knowledge and Micron proprietary methods of designing and analyzing core and mixed circuits used in the development of memory products.

Responsibilities

• Design, simulate, and optimize NAND core circuit blocks, balancing performance, power, area, and reliability trade-offs.
• Translate product and system requirements into circuit implementations, evaluating feasibility and functionality across use cases.
• Perform comprehensive circuit verification (DC, AC, transient, noise, Monte Carlo, PVT corners) at block and chip level.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve power efficiency, manufacturability, and overall product performance.
• Develop and maintain automation solutions (e.g., Python-based workflows, AI-assisted tools) and technical documentation.

Minimum Qualifications

• M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field.
• Proven experience in analog and/or mixed-signal CMOS circuit design.
• Solid understanding of device physics, variability, reliability, and power integrity.
• Hands‑on experience with SPICE-based simulation tools and circuit verification methodologies.
• Strong problem‑solving and communication skills, with ability to work in global cross‑functional teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in NAND Flash or other non‑volatile memory technologies.
• Familiarity with design automation, scripting (e.g., Python), or AI‑assisted design approaches.
• Understanding of layout constraints and interaction with physical design flows.

Salary and Benefits

The base salary range for this full‑time position is 34.000,00 € – 57.000,00 € per year, with B2 CCNL Level. Additional compensation may include a variable plan based on personal objectives and company performance. Benefits include meal vouchers, corporate welfare, yearly allowance of remote working days, supplementary health insurance, life coverage, and an Employee Assistance Program.

Equal Employment Opportunity

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
