As an intern, you will work with an experienced mentor and project stakeholders to deliver a focused technical project. Depending on your background and business needs, your project may include work in one or more of the following areas:
Project Scope
- Reliability data analysis & variation learning: analyze reliability datasets to understand sources of variation (e.g., die/block/wordline effects), and communicate insights with clear visuals and summaries.
- Qualification learning support (intrinsic cell reliability): help track and interpret reliability indicators and error behaviors relevant to NAND reliability learning and qualification readiness.
- Automation / efficiency improvement: develop or enhance scripts to improve repeatability, reduce manual effort, and speed up analysis/learning cycles (Python preferred).
Expected Deliverables
- A well‑scoped project plan (problem statement, approach, timeline, risks)
- A final technical readout (slides + short write‑up) summarizing method, results, and recommendations
- Reproducible analysis artifacts (scripts/notebooks) and clear documentation for handoff
What You Will Learn
- How NAND memory reliability is evaluated, including key concepts like bit errors, error behavior, and reliability mechanisms under use conditions.
- How engineering teams use data to accelerate technology learning (including initiatives related to test time reduction, die‑level predictors, and efficiency improvements).
- How cross‑functional teams collaborate across TD, characterization, and (where applicable) system/validation partners.
Skillset Required
- Currently pursuing a PhD in Electrical/Electronics/Materials Engineering, Applied Physics, or a related discipline.
- Basic understanding of semiconductor device physics and materials characterization.
- Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills; demonstrated innovation is highly valued.
- Effective communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
