MTS Memory Design Engineer, HBM en Micron

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.

Micron’s Heterogeneous Integration Group (HIG) is shaping the future of AI and accelerated computing by developing sophisticated memory solutions! The team focuses on designing and optimizing High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) products for AI/ML, high-performance computing (HPC), and data-centric systems, collaborating across global engineering and product teams to deliver industry-leading performance, power efficiency, and reliability. The HBM product family is growing due to high demand from industry leading semiconductor companies!

As an HBM Memory Design Engineer in sustaining role you will be working with teams like Design Engineering (DE), Product Engineering (PE), Process Integration, Packaging and Technology Development (TD) on evaluating silicon issues seen on all the current HBM designs.  You will interact with the architecture team to understand new or modified specification requests, and you will work with the team on implementing and verifying the design, supporting the design release to silicon and all future needs arising for the design. You will have an opportunity to rotate to a Design Engineer role and work on the next generation HBM products.

Responsibilities include but not limited to:

• Contribute to the design, layout, and optimization of Memory, Logic, and Analog circuits for HBM products.

• Parasitic modeling and assisting in design validation, reticle experiments, and required tape-out revisions.

• Collaborate with layout teams to meet floorplanning, placement, and routing requirements.

• Simulate and verify designs using industry-standard tools (e.g., FINESIM, HSPICE, Verilog).

• Perform extensive power delivery network analysis and optimization.

• Assist in running various design checks prior to initial tapeout and revision tapeout.

• Maintain technical expertise through continuous training and cross-group communication.

• Drive innovation for future memory generations in a dynamic, collaborative environment.

• Be proactive in identifying and flagging design issues, performance problems, and opportunities to improve design performance and reduce power consumption.

• Debug and identify root causes and solutions for pre-silicon and post-silicon issues encountered in current HBM products.

• Engage with Standards, CAD, modeling, and verification groups to ensure the design quality.

• Provide mentorship and support to recent graduates joining the team.

• Review and check design specifications to ensure high quality.

• Engage with various teams like Product Engineering, Test, Probe, Process Integration, Packaging, Technology Development and Marketing to ensure performance & manufacturability, to support issues with current HBM designs and find opportunities to innovate on future HBM solutions.

• Mentor new experienced hires.

Minimum Qualifications:

• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or a related equivalent field.

• Proven relevant experience of 12+ years with BS or 10+ years with MS.

• Extensive knowledge of CMOS circuit design and good understanding of semiconductor device physics.

• Experience with schematic entry, digital (Verilog) and analog (FastSpice & Hspice) modeling and simulations.

• Good understanding of timing/area/power/complexity trade-offs in DRAM or mixed-signal design.

• Extensive knowledge with DRAM operation and JEDEC specifications, preferably with the HBM product family.

• Experience in power delivery network analysis and optimization.

• Experience delivering highly technical solutions.

• In depth technical expertise in one or more areas - memory array design, high-speed clocking and interface development, logic and custom circuit design, power delivery optimization, CMOS & semiconductor device physics, 2.5D and 3D packaging technologies

Preferred Qualifications:

• Good verbal and written communication skills with the ability to efficiently synthesize and convey sophisticated technical concepts to other team members and leadership.

• A self-motivated, hard-working team player who enjoys working with diverse abilities and backgrounds.

• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.

• Experience with scripting languages (Python, TCL, Perl, etc.)

• Proven track record of innovation and problem-solving in high-performance memory development.

• Prior experience with RTL Design flow, in DRAM process or Foundry process.

• Good understanding of Memory subsystem operation in high-performance computing applications.

• Prior experience with DRAM product bring-up and debug.

• Prior experience with package technologies (TSV, hybrid bonding, interposers, etc).

• Strong process technology development experience and understanding of both IDM, as well as Foundry operating models
