Job description

About the Role

As a Principal Analog Design Engineer, you will shape the next generation of Micron’s memory products, bringing circuit designs to life and directly influencing their performance, quality, and reliability.

Responsibilities

• Design, optimize, and verify block‑level analog and mixed‑signal circuits for DRAM.
• Propose, evaluate, and implement new or improved circuit topologies to enhance block performance, power, and cost.
• Work with internal data science team and EDA vendors to leverage agentic AI and AI‑assisted design flows for circuit optimization.
• Expand verification coverage to strengthen robustness and mass‑production yield.
• Partner with global design groups, guide layout through post‑layout simulation, support silicon‑to‑simulation correlation, and operate independently to define solutions and methods.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering with 10+ years of semiconductor design experience.
• Solid analog circuit design fundamentals, including experience designing regulators, charge pumps, oscillators, current references, band‑gaps, or comparators.
• Proficiency with SPICE and Verilog modeling and simulation.
• Ability to supervise physical layout of analog circuits.
• Experience working across technical and non‑technical teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• MSEE with 10+ years or BSEE with 12+ years of analog or mixed‑signal IC design experience in a fast‑paced environment.
• Demonstrated DRAM circuit design experience and 5+ years of circuit debugging with cross‑functional teams.
• Recent hands‑on AI usage and proficiency.
• Strong understanding of device physics and CMOS process technologies.
• Proven ability to mentor and coach junior engineers.

Benefits

Micron offers a choice of medical, dental and vision plans, benefit programs that protect income, paid family leave, robust paid time‑off, paid holidays, and a benefits guide available on micron.com/careers/benefits.
