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. We are
seeking a Principal/Member of Technical Staff (MTS) IO/Clock Design Engeer to
join our DRAM IP Design team and contribute to the development of critical
high-speed IP circuits used across Micron’s DRAM memory products. In this role,
you will be responsible for the design, development, optimization, verification,
and technical support of these high-speed IPs. You will focus on equalization
and bandwidth extension to push the limits of circuit and process performance,
analyze IO impairments as well as clock jitter and duty cycle distortion, and
assess their impact on DRAM system timing. You will also develop and implement
effective engineering solutions to address these challenges. Relocation to
Micron headquarter in Boise, Idaho is required for this position.
Responsibilities: Innovate, design, optimize and verify high-speed IO and
clocking circuits used in new DRAM products. Apply robust high-speed circuit
design techniques and enhance critical performance evaluation, including timing
and jitter sensitivity, of the IO data path and clock path at circuit and
full-chip level. Develop accurate modeling, analysis and simulation methodology
to capture key circuit performance metrics and their impact to product
specifications at full-chip and system level. Work with Product Engineering and
SI team to compare silicon performance with simulation results and support
correlation activities. Collaborate with process integration and transistor
modeling teams on Micron's next groundbreaking process node. Work with the
internal data science team and EDA vendors to leverage and improve AI-assisted
design flow and circuits optimization. Minimum Qualifications: Minimum MSEE + 10
years or BSEE + 12 years of industry experience with strong background in
designing high-speed IO interface, timing and clocking circuits with proven
silicon successes. Ability to supervise layout work and understand good layout
practices for high-speed circuits to minimize parasitic impacts. Strong
interpersonal skills with the ability to convey sophisticated technical concepts
to other design peers both verbally and written. Mental agility and ability to
multi-task is a must for this position as we work with all product types
(commodity, mobile, graphics) and product teams in parallel with silicon
validation efforts. Preferred Qualifications: Prior experience in DRAM circuit
design experience. Prior experience in channel modeling and characterization,
transceiver noise and timing budget analysis, equalization techniques, SI
knowledge, etc. Understanding of device physics and basic CMOS processing
techniques. Demonstrated ability in mentoring and coaching engineers early in
their careers. Demonstrated ability with AI/ML usage and fluency in scripting
languages such as PERL/Python. Use of Agentic AI As a world leader in the
