Staff Engineer, Circuit Design

Staff Engineer, Circuit Design (Micron Technology) Responsibilities Take part in multi‑functional key features evaluation and recommend a decision on architecture. Break down functions into circuits in the analog and/or digital domain, then design, simulate, optimize, and floor‑plan NAND circuits. Evaluate design feasibility and analyze circuit functionalities, including product performance. Validate design performance and functionalities by running block and chip‑level simulations using standard industry simulators. Evaluate required verification coverage from design features. Work with multi‑functional teams to evaluate and analyze NAND die performance and power consumption. Proactively design and verify products to optimize all manufacturing functions and provide the best cost, quality, root‑cause analysis, reliability, time‑to‑market, and customer satisfaction. Minimum Qualification 7+ years of transistor‑level analog and digital logic IC design experience using CMOS. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering. Experience designing several of the following blocks: bandgap, regulator, charge‑pump, ADC, DAC, temperature sensor, power detector, comparator, active filters, oscillator, and custom logic. Responsible for translating system‑level specifications onto circuit‑block level performance specifications, designing and developing circuit architecture to meet system‑level specs. Thorough understanding of analog design theory, loop stability analysis, and device physics. Proficient knowledge of memory‑cell read/write operations, including array architecture. Knowledge of CMOS device physics, including reliability performance. Standout colleague with a strong sense of urgency to meet product requirements on schedule. Preferred Qualification Master’s degree or Ph.D. in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering. Experience with digital design flow (Verilog coding, RTL synthesis, logic simulation, place and route). Proficient knowledge of memory‑cell test flow. Experience with layout floor‑planning, supervision, and post‑layout simulations. Strong lab experience with performance IC characterization and debugging. Excellent oral and written communication skills. Basic proficiency in Perl and/or Python coding. Basic proficiency in Verilog‑A simulation and modeling. Expertise in analog/digital simulators (HSPICE, Verilog‑A, XA, Finesim). Expertise in scripting languages (Perl, Python, C++). Familiarity with Cadence design tools, LVS/SRC. US Base Salary Range $145,000.00 – $246,000.00 per year. Equal Opportunity Employment Micron is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is an affirmative action employer.
