Senior Engineer, Edge Systems Architecture

Job Title

Senior Engineer, Edge Systems Architecture

Role Summary

Senior engineer in Micron's Mobile & Client Business Unit (MCBU) Systems Lab focused on system-level memory and storage architecture for Edge (mobile and client) platforms. The role drives architecture definition, analysis, and optimization to improve cost, performance, and power efficiency of next-generation Memory/Storage solutions.

Collaborate with cross-functional hardware, firmware, and product teams; apply profiling, simulation, and AI/ML techniques to evaluate trade-offs and deliver measurable system improvements.

Experience Level

Senior level. (Title indicates senior; preferred 5+ years of mobile platform software or hardware experience is listed as a preferred skill.)

Responsibilities

Work at system level to define, analyze, and optimize memory/storage architectures for mobile and client platforms.

• Determine architecture needs from competitive market and platform requirements.
• Design and evaluate memory/storage architectures to improve cost, performance, and power.
• Define and measure cost, performance, and power metrics; perform detailed analysis and benchmarking.
• Analyze memory/storage controller architectures and demonstrate trade-offs affecting subsystem performance.
• Collaborate with engineering and product management across software and hardware domains.
• Identify and implement AI-enabled automation for benchmark processing, profiling, root-cause analysis, and reporting.
• Integrate AI capabilities with tools, simulations, and validation processes while ensuring data security and result traceability.
• Establish validation, documentation, and standard processes for responsible AI adoption.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills, systems experience, and working behaviors.

• Proven experience in DRAM/NAND IPs, SoC/IP development, or systems architecture & analysis for Client/Server/Mobile SoCs.
• Experience with CPU, GPU, image processors, AI processors, DDR memory systems, or platform/system development.
• Expertise in benchmark (power, performance, thermal) analysis and use of profiling tools.
• Strong knowledge of computer, memory, and storage architecture.
• Practical experience evaluating AI workloads across CPU, GPU, NPU/AI accelerators, memory, and storage subsystems.
• Proficiency applying AI/ML concepts and tools to system architecture, performance analysis, and design-space exploration.
• Clear communication skills, cross-functional collaboration, self-motivation, and problem-solving ability.
• Ability to assess emerging AI models and translate workload requirements into architecture recommendations.

Nice-to-have:

• Exposure to custom hardware platform development.
• Deep familiarity with DDR/LPDDR5/5x, PCIe, NVMe, and memory/storage device details.

Education Requirements

BS, MS, or PhD (or equivalent practical experience) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
