Job description

You will contribute to the design and delivery of next‑generation memory products by working across circuit design, layout, and validation. You will apply simulation, modeling, and verification skills to improve design quality and manufacturability. You will collaborate with cross‑functional partners to support tape‑out readiness and future technology scaling. This role offers hands‑on impact across the full semiconductor design flow.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to new product opportunities by supporting overall circuit design, layout, and optimization for memory and logic or analog circuits.
• Perform parasitic modeling and support design validation, including reticle experiments and required tape‑out revisions.
• Oversee and manage the layout process, including floor‑planning, placement, and routing.
• Perform verification using modeling and simulation with industry‑standard simulators.
• Collaborate across teams to drive standardization and shared design success.
• Partner with Marketing, Probe, Assembly, Test, Process Integration, and Product Engineering to support accurate manufacturability.
• Proactively incorporate guidance from standards, computer‑aided design (CAD), modeling, and verification teams to improve design quality.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 4+ years of relevant experience with a Bachelor’s degree, or 2+ years with a Master’s degree.
• Extensive knowledge of CMOS circuit design and semiconductor device physics.
• Experience with schematic entry, Verilog, FastSPICE, and HSPICE simulations.
• Strong understanding of timing, area, power, and complexity trade‑offs in DRAM or mixed‑signal design.

Preferred Qualifications

• Strong verbal and written communication skills for conveying complex technical concepts.
• Self‑motivated, collaborative team player who thrives in diverse environments.
• Excellent problem‑solving and analytical skills, including scripting experience (Python, TCL, Perl).
• Prior register‑transfer level (RTL) design flow experience in DRAM or foundry processes.
• Experience with design for test (DFT) concepts or implementation at any level.

Benefits

Micron provides a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision coverage; income protection benefits; paid family leave; paid time‑off; and paid holidays.
