Micron TechnologyAs a Sr. Design Engineer / Staff Design Engineer in the NVE Design Engineering Analog Design Group at Micron Technology, Inc., 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 include designing, simulating, optimizing, and floor-planning NAND circuit blocks; evaluating design feasibility and analyzing circuit functionality across use cases; implementing analog and mixed-signal circuit designs that meet performance and reliability specifications; and validating design performance at block- and chip-level using industry-standard simulation tools. You will continuously improve NAND die size, performance, power consumption, reliability, quality, cost, and time-to-market, including collaborating in a multi-functional, multi-time zone working environment. You will build and maintain Python-based AI utilities that collaborate with EDA tools to accelerate development workflows, such as environment setup, corner execution, regressions, automated documentation, and predictive build/layout. You will review existing user documentation and generate new build collateral. You will collaborate with groups such as Product Engineering, Test, Probe, Process Integration, Assembly, and Marketing to ensure optimized manufacturability, cost, reliability, and time-to-market. The ideal candidate is first and foremost a strong analog and mixed-signal designer who can independently solve complex circuit problems. In addition, the candidate is curious about AI, comfortable writing code, and motivated to convert engineering pain points into practical agent-based flows. The candidate should balance experimentation with disciplined validation, ensuring that AI augments engineering judgment rather than replacing technical review.
- BS in electrical engineering required; 2+ years of NAND design relevant industry experience required for Sr. level or 4+ years required for Staff level. - A high level of self-motivation. - Proficiency in analog/mixed signal circuit design (charge pumps, op amps, DACs, ADCs, linear regulators, oscillators, bandgaps). - Good fundamentals in semiconductor and device physics and analog/mixed-signal circuit design. An understanding of semiconductor reliability issues including CHC, NBTI, stress, and snapback, as well as Electromigration (EM) and IR analysis. - Strong circuit debugging and problem-solving skills. - Experience of circuit verification and optimization, layout planning, parasitic extractions of the circuits, experience guiding layout. - Familiarity with tool-calling, retrieval, evaluation frameworks, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop review for reliable engineering AI applications. - Excellent teamwork attitude. Good verbal communication skills (English) and ability to convey complex technical concepts in verbal and written form.
- MS/PhD or equivalent experience preferred. - Knowledge of analog and digital simulators such as HSPICE, Fast SPICE, and Verilog. - Familiarity with Cadence design, LVS/DRC tools (a plus). - Experience with a scripting language. - Familiarity with Linux/UNIX.
- Employees get paid time off and are encouraged to use it. - We provide world-class education opportunities, linking learners and educators from around the world. - A variety of wellbeing programs to meet you where you are. - Purchase Micron stock through our employee stock purchase program at a discount. - A choice of medical, dental and vision plans are offered to team members. - We promote and reward peer-to-peer recognition.
