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.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop, integrate, and optimizecustom 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 optimizeschematics, device sizing, bias structures, sensing and monitoring paths, multiplexers relevant totest 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 requiredto control, observe, characterize, and validatecustom test circuits at wafer and package levels.
Work with Product Engineering during first-siliconbring-up, debug and characterization, failure isolation, simulation-to-silicon correlation, and ramp to high-volume production.
Use laboratory measurements and silicon data to identifyroot causeand 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 maintainingengineering 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.
Required Qualifications and Skills:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field with 2+ years of experience
Relevant hands-on experience in custom/analog circuit design, mixed-signal design, memory peripheral circuit design, or Product Engineering with strong transistor-level circuit and silicon-debug exposure.
Strong understanding of CMOS device operation, transistor-level circuit design, leakage mechanisms, parasitics, PVT sensitivity, timing, loading, noise margin, power, and reliability principles.
Hands-on proficiency with circuit build entry, waveform debug and post-layout verification.
Proficiencyin XA or equivalent fast transistor-level simulation, Verilog, and mixed-signal validation methodologies.
Preferred (not must) solid understanding of NAND flash memory architecture, test modes, peripheral circuits, internal signal access, and wafer/package test considerations.
Proficiencyin Python and scripting for simulation automation, regression analysis, result extraction, waveform processing, and engineering efficiency.
Ability to identifyworkflows that can be improved through AI, develop or adaptAI-enabled engineering solutions, and apply appropriate technicalreview, data protection, and engineering judgment.
Excellent problem-solving skills, strong attention to detail, and effective interpersonal skills for multi-functional, global collaboration.
Nice to have: Laboratory skills using oscilloscope, logic or signal analyzer, source-measure equipment, function generator, and hands-on testing of silicon at wafer and package levels.
