Develop, integrate, and optimize custom test circuit architectures for NAND flash memory designs, including transistor-level digital, analog, mixed-signal, monitoring, control, and memory-array interface circuits. Interpret product specifications and test requirements; define circuit functionality, interfaces, operating limits, controllability, observability, and validation criteria. Create, review, and optimize schematics, device sizing, bias structures, sensing and monitoring paths, and multiplexers relevant to test circuits. Analyze circuit testability and robustness to ensure compliance with quality, coverage, manufacturability, power, area, and reliability requirements. Validate custom test circuits using XA simulations, Verilog simulations, and mixed-signal validation environments. Collaborate closely with layout teams on matching, parasitic sensitivity, shielding, routing, guard rings, device placement, and layout-dependent effects; review post-layout results and drive closure. Evaluate circuit risks including leakage, contention, floating nodes, device overstress, power sequencing, current density, EM/IR, and long-duration stress conditions. Create and debug test sequences and test modes required to control, observe, characterize, and validate custom test circuits at wafer and package levels. Work with Product Engineering during first-silicon bring-up, debug and characterization, failure isolation, simulation-to-silicon correlation, and ramp to high-volume production. Use laboratory measurements and silicon data to identify root cause and recommend circuit, test-mode, characterization, or screening improvements. Apply a Design + AI approach as a core responsibility by using AI-assisted and agentic engineering workflows to accelerate circuit review, simulation triage, waveform analysis, root-cause investigation, automation, documentation, and knowledge retrieval while maintaining engineering rigor and sign-off discipline. Develop Python or scripting-based automation and AI-enabled solutions that improve design quality, reduce turnaround time, and increase engineering productivity. Document test-circuit methodologies, specifications, design decisions, validation results, silicon correlation, and clear technical recommendations.
