About The Position

Micron Technology, Inc. is seeking a Firmware Engineer to develop high-performance controller firmware for innovative memory systems. This role involves evaluating, designing, building, testing, debugging, and analyzing firmware for new memory controllers and Solid State Drives to enhance performance while reducing power, latency, and SoC complexity. The engineer will collaborate with various cross-functional teams, validate customer requirements, perform failure analysis, develop structured source code for embedded environments, and conduct design verification. A focus on firmware quality, participation in SCRUM/Agile processes, and development of new test tools and documentation are key aspects of this position. The role also involves working on the front-end interfaces of Micron Solid State Drives and collaborating on NVMe protocol firmware for Enterprise SSD products.

Requirements

• Develop high-performance controller firmware for innovative volatile and non-volatile memory systems.
• Assist in evaluating, designing, building, bench testing, debugging, and failure analyzing firmware for new high-performance memory controllers and Solid State Drives that will increase performance, while reducing power, latency and SoC (System on Chip) complexity for the target markets.
• Work closely with system test engineers, system failure analysis engineers, firmware engineers, firmware test engineers, system hardware design engineers, product engineers, memory design engineers, firmware tools developers, and production engineers to solve cross-functional product development issues.
• Validate customer requirements and perform failure analysis on FW related issues.
• Develop structured source code targeting the embedded environment associated with state-of-the-art memory.
• Perform design verification using a variety of verification methods, including simulation and product testing.
• Focus on firmware quality in the system and the target application.
• Participate in SCRUM/Agile processes and distributed code reviews.
• Develop new test tools and methods.
• Review, supply to, and craft clear documentation for deliverables that meet both internal specifications/standards and SSD industry standards and specifications.
• Work alongside other firmware engineers on the front-end interfaces of Micron Solid State Drives.
• Work closely with the NVMe protocol firmware focused on Enterprise SSD products to perform code development tasks.
