About The Position

Micron Technology's Heterogeneous Integration Group (HIG) is shaping the future of AI and accelerated computing by developing advanced memory solutions, specifically High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) products. These products are designed for AI/ML, high-performance computing (HPC), and data-centric systems, aiming to deliver industry-leading performance, power efficiency, and reliability. The HBM product family is experiencing significant growth due to high demand from leading semiconductor companies. As an HBM Memory Design Engineer – Sustaining (Staff), you will play a crucial role in analyzing and resolving silicon issues across HBM products by collaborating closely with cross-functional teams including Design Engineering (DE), Product Engineering (PE), Process Integration, Packaging, and Technology Development (TD). You will also work with architecture teams to understand and implement design updates, supporting both silicon release and ongoing product lifecycle needs. This role requires strong AI-driven technical execution and the ability to independently drive complex issues to closure.

Requirements

• 6+ years (BS) or 4+ years (MS) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
• Strong understanding of DRAM/HBM architecture and high-speed memory interfaces
• Experience in digital and/or custom design and verification
• Hands-on experience in silicon debug or post-silicon validation
• Ability to independently drive complex technical issues to closure
• Proficiency in Artificial Intelligence (Claude Code or similar) in improving design quality and efficiency

Nice To Haves

• Experience with HBM/DDR/LPDDR or high-speed IO systems
• Background in system-level debug and silicon-to-system correlation
• Knowledge of timing and margin analysis, signal and power integrity
• Experience with DFT / mBIST / test-mode debug
• Programming/scripting skills (Python preferred) for debug automation
• Strong communication skills with ability to work across cross-functional teams

Responsibilities

• Work on HBM product design and support sustaining design maintenance (ECOs/spec changes).
• Own end-to-end debug of silicon, system, and customer issues, driving root-cause analysis and resolution.
• Work closely with DE, PE, TD, and system teams to execute issue resolution and ensure alignment on priorities.
• Identify and debug yield, reliability, and performance issues to improve product quality.
• Support customer bring-up, qualification, and system-level debug activities as needed.
• Contribute sustaining learnings to improve design quality, debug efficiency, and verification methodologies.

Benefits

• Choice of medical, dental and vision plans
• Benefit programs that help protect your income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury
• Paid family leave
• Robust paid time-off program
• Paid holidays
