Principal Digital Design Engineer - HBM Design

at  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.

OUR OPPORTUNITY SUMMARY:

For more than 43 years, Micron Technology, Inc. has redefined innovation with the world’s most advanced memory and semiconductor technologies. We’re an international team of visionaries and scientists, developing groundbreaking technologies that are transforming how the world uses information to enrich life.
We are looking for a HBM Digital Design Engineer. Are you passionate about designing circuits for the next generation of memory that will power groundbreaking AI applications?
You will work in an innovative and dynamic team and will be responsible for designing and analyzing digital circuits for DRAM and interface die. This includes simulating, optimizing, and floor planning circuits. In this position, you will collaborate with Micron’s worldwide design and verification teams and support the efforts of multi-functional teams such as Product Engineering, Test, Probe, Process Integration, Assembly, and Marketing to proactively design HBM products that optimize all manufacturing functions and ensure the best performance, power, cost, quality, reliability, time-to-market, and customer satisfaction. The seniority level offered will be based on the combination of experience and education.
In HBM DEG (High Bandwidth Memory - DRAM Engineering Group), we innovate and integrate end-to-end groundbreaking front-end and backend processes with groundbreaking design, debugging various tests, and qualification techniques to develop the lowest power per bit solutions to improve customer experience in the field of ML (Machine Learning) and AI (Artificial Intelligence). The success of a sophisticated product such as HBM relies vastly on vertical integration and the various engineering working in unison. To provide greater detail, our HBM technology pertains to stacking numbers of DRAM chips along with a logic chip within one package through an assembly technology called TSV (Through Silicon Via). This greatly increases the memory density in a package, while allowing very high-speed signal transmission. Furthermore, “high bandwidth”; is an outstanding memory design area where custom gate-level design and RTL style logic design are blended into the same product, and most of the DDR or LPDDR design is based on the gate-level design only. Lastly, verification and testing (validation) of HBM is the most challenging due to the total size of the design and complexity of the functions, and in addition to craft, many innovations are needed for verification and validation of the HBM product, thereby making it uniquely exciting.
Our team vision is a continuing desire to develop your skills working in an inclusive diverse environment of multicultural Teams across worldwide geographies! Enabling the creative career path you deserve with a collaborative environment and groundbreaking technology and growing upon your imagination and creativity.
(Disclaimer): While you may not exhibit all of the characteristics/skills listed below today, we are highly interested in a teammate who is motivated to grow in technical breadth and depth. Suppose you are open to learning while being a valued member of a team of premier engineers. In that case, we are determined to help build upon your existing foundation, while rapidly growing your individual and collaborative skills in this exciting and outstanding opportunity.

HOW TO QUALIFY:

• BSEE or Greater
• 5+ years of relevant job/skill-related experience
• Experience with implementing logic functions in RTL using Verilog/System Verilog
• Experience with creating circuit specifications.
• Good understanding of timing/area/power/complexity tradeoffs on complex designs
• Knowledge of Synthesis, Static Timing & Constraints, Lint & CDC
• Experience in formal verification tools and functional verification.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Knowledge of scripting c-shell, python or Perl, TCL
