Principal Engineer – ASIC SoC Design

Job Title

Principal Engineer – ASIC SoC Design

Role Summary

Drive IP, subsystem, and SoC development for next-generation memory and storage products. Hands-on role covering micro-architecture, RTL design, integration, and silicon support, collaborating across architecture, verification, firmware, DFT, synthesis, and physical design teams.

Experience Level

Senior — requires 12+ years of hands-on IP and SoC RTL design experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include end-to-end IP and SoC ownership, integration, and post-silicon support.

• Own IP and subsystem design from micro-architecture through reusable RTL implementation.
• Lead SoC integration tasks: CDC, lint, synthesis, STA, and power analysis.
• Define and review module interfaces and system-level architecture.
• Collaborate with Architecture, Verification, Firmware, DFT, Synthesis, and Physical Design teams.
• Support post-silicon debug, bring-up activities, and provide silicon support.
• Provide technical mentorship and participate in design and methodology reviews.
• Apply Micron-approved AI tools and AI-enabled workflows to improve engineering productivity and design quality while complying with AI governance standards.

Requirements

Must-have skills and experience:

• 12+ years of hands-on IP & SoC RTL design experience.
• Strong micro-architecture and RTL design skills; proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Knowledge of asynchronous design concepts and CDC methodologies.
• Experience with SoC design flows: lint, CDC, synthesis/STA, and power analysis.
• Proficient with scripting languages for design automation.
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills; ability to work with global cross-functional teams.

Preferred / nice-to-have:

• Exposure to LPDDR subsystems, CPU subsystems, or SoC test controller design.
• Experience with ASIC controllers for storage or memory systems.
• Hands-on post-silicon debug and silicon bring-up experience.

Education Requirements
