Senior Memory Sustaining Design Engineer, HBM

Overview

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 advanced 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.

HBM product family is growing due to high demand from industry leading semiconductor companies. As a HBM Memory Design Engineer in a 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.

• 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 floor planning, placement, and routing requirements.
• Simulate and verify designs using industry‑standard tools (HSPICE, Verilog, Fast Sim).
• Perform extensive power delivery network analysis and optimization.
• Assist in running various design checks prior to initial tapeouts and revision tapeouts.
• 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.
• Mentor new college graduate hires.

• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or a related equivalent field.
• Proven relevant experience of 5+ years with BS or 3+ years with MS.
• Extensive knowledge of CMOS circuit design and good understanding of semiconductor device physics.
• Experience with schematic entry, digital (Verilog) and analog (Fast Spice & Hspice) modeling and simulations.
• Good understanding of timing / area / power / complexity trade‑offs in DRAM or mixed‑signal design.

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