NVM/RRAM Device-PI Engineer (R&D)

Job Title

NVM/RRAM Device-PI Engineer (R&D)

Role Summary

Join a small Advanced Technology Development team within the Technology and Manufacturing Group to perform device path-finding and development for high-density non-volatile memory (NVM), with emphasis on RRAM. The role covers component definition through device fabrication, characterization, and transfer to production.

The position requires cross-disciplinary collaboration with process, design, failure analysis, and fabrication teams to deliver reliable, production‑worthy NVM technologies on tight schedules.

Experience Level

Mid-level — expects 3+ years of relevant experience.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include:

• Design and evaluate bitcells for NVM devices.
• Integrate devices with process and CMOS flows; support device integration activities.
• Define and execute SWR/DOE experiments and test-structure designs.
• Perform electrical device characterization and analyze data to guide design and process decisions.
• Generate design rules and run device-level simulations.
• Collaborate with process, design, failure analysis, and fabrication teams to advance technology development.
• Make strategic recommendations for future NVM technologies and support transfer toward production.

Requirements

Must-have and preferred technical skills (degrees summarized separately below):

• Must-have: 3+ years of relevant experience in NVM device development; experience with emerging NVM technologies, especially RRAM.
• Must-have: Experience with NVM device operation and electrical testing; knowledge of semiconductor and memory device physics.
• Must-have: Experience in device characterization, DOE definition, and data analysis.
• Nice-to-have: Understanding of CMOS and memory process flows and device integration.
• Nice-to-have: Circuit design engineering experience and familiarity with Spectre and Cadence design/layout tools.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with data analysis and visualization tools (JMP, Spotfire, Dataware) and scripting (Perl, Python).
• Nice-to-have: Strong communication and documentation skills; ability to work in a fast-paced, multi-priority environment.

Education Requirements

Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field is required. A Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or related degree is preferred. Fields cited include Electrical Engineering and related technical disciplines. No explicit equivalent-experience language was provided in the posting.
