New College Grad - Semiconductor Design Engineer, DRAM Products Group
About The Position
Perform semiconductor design engineering assignments, including chip‑level circuit design, layout collaboration, circuit checking, and documentation. Assist with gate‑level to full‑chip build, layout, and improvement of memory circuit efficiency. Complete circuit simulations using industry‑standard tools such as SPICE and Verilog; analyze and debug results. Design and develop schematic blocks including memory arrays, control logic, address decode, datapath, and internal test logic. Evaluate design architecture tradeoffs and understand their impact on power, performance, die size, and reliability. Import and analyze layout parasitic information within circuit simulation environments. Interpret device specifications and translate them into die‑level circuit functionality across operating ranges. Support test chip definition, silicon validation strategies, and lab correlation efforts. Collaborate with Product Engineering, Test, Probe, Process Integration, Assembly, and Marketing to ensure manufacturability. Find opportunities to drive competitive advantage through innovative design concepts.
