Principal Engineer – HBM Design for Test (DFT

Principal Engineer – HBM Design For Test (DFT)

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.

The Principal Engineer – HBM Design For Test (DFT) is a senior technical contributor responsible for defining, deploying, and sustaining best-in-class DFT solutions across HBM core die and base die spanning multiple HBM families.

This role emphasizes DFT architecture, specification ownership, multi-functional alignment, and program support, supported by strong technical expertise to ensure solutions are robust, scalable, and manufacturable. The role includes a close partnership with DFT Verification to ensure feature completeness, coverage, and readiness for tape-out and silicon bring-up.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and implement DFT architecture and feature intent for assigned DFT domains across HBM core die and base die
• Ensure DFT solutions enable high-quality, low-cost, and manufacturable HBM products
• Partner with Design Engineering, Product Engineering, Test, and DFT Verification to:
• Translate manufacturing and test needs into clear DFT requirements
• Ensure spec-to-verification coverage alignment for DFT features and test modes
• Identify and resolve DFT-related issues during build execution, tape-out, and silicon bring-up
• Serve as the DFT point of contact for assigned programs or functional areas
• Drive standardization and reuse of DFT features across HBM families
• Participate in DFT governance activities, including design and verification readiness reviews
• Contribute to documentation, knowledge sharing, and training within the DFT organization

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field (Master's preferred)
• 8+ years of experience in semiconductor development with exposure to DFT, verification, test strategy, manufacturability, or silicon debug
• Working knowledge of memory architectures (HBM or DRAM preferred)
• Experience influencing DFT requirements, specifications, and verification expectations

Preferred Qualifications:

• Strong multi-functional collaboration skills, including work with verification organizations
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
