Responsibilities
Design and validate circuits that meet power, performance, area, and reliability targets for DRAM products.
- Design, layout, simulate, and optimize analog and digital memory circuits and semiconductor devices.
- Develop and support schematic blocks such as memory arrays, control logic, address decoding, datapath circuitry, and internal test logic.
- Perform circuit verification, parasitic extraction analysis, design-rule optimization, and debug to improve functionality and yield.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define test chip strategies and support silicon validation.
- Apply AI-enabled tools and automation to improve design efficiency and analysis workflows.
Requirements
Must-have technical skills and abilities expected for this role.
- Basic understanding of memory array architectures, memory circuits, and semiconductor device operation.
- Experience with circuit simulation, setup, debugging, and analysis using industry-standard simulation tools.
- Ability to interpret device specifications and translate requirements into functional circuit designs.
- Clear written and verbal communication; able to present technical concepts to peers and management.
Nice-to-have:
- Experience designing semiconductor circuits or memory products.
- Knowledge of circuit layout, parasitic extraction, and design-for-manufacturability (DFM) methodologies.
- Familiarity with SPICE, Verilog, or comparable design and verification tools.
- Understanding of architecture trade-offs for power, speed, area, and product performance.
- Experience using AI-enabled solutions, data-driven approaches, or automation to improve engineering productivity.
Education Requirements
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or higher in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field. Master's or other advanced degrees in EE or related technical disciplines are acceptable where applicable.
