New College Grad - Design Engineer, DRAM Technology and Products

About the role

This role partners closely with Design, Verification, Product Engineering, Test, Probe, Process Integration, Assembly, and Marketing teams to develop high-quality, cost-effective, and reliable solutions. As a Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the design, analysis, and optimization of digital and analog circuits used in memory products. You will contribute to semiconductor design engineering activities including circuit design, chip layout, simulation, verification, documentation, and silicon validation. The successful candidate will help develop innovative memory architectures while ensuring optimal power, performance, area, manufacturability, and product quality.

Responsibilities

• Design, layout, simulate, and optimize memory circuits and semiconductor devices to meet performance, power, area, and reliability requirements.
• Develop and support schematic blocks including memory arrays, control logic, address decoding, datapath circuitry, and internal test logic using industry-standard tools such as SPICE and Verilog.
• Perform circuit verification, parasitic extraction analysis, design rule optimization, and debug activities to improve functionality, manufacturability, and yield.
• Collaborate with multi-functional engineering teams to define test chip strategies, support silicon validation, and resolve product development challenges.
• Apply AI-Enabled tools and methodologies to improve design efficiency, enhance analysis workflows, and drive continuous improvements in the semiconductor design process.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or higher degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field.
• 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.
• Demonstrated written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present technical concepts to engineering peers and management.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing semiconductor circuits, memory products, or related integrated circuit technologies.
• Knowledge of circuit layout, parasitic extraction, and design-for-manufacturability (DFM) methodologies.
• Experience using SPICE, Verilog, or comparable circuit design and verification tools.
• Understanding of the impact of architectural decisions on power consumption, speed, area, and overall product performance.
• Demonstrated ability to use AI-Enabled solutions, data-driven approaches, or automation techniques to improve engineering productivity and design quality.

Benefits

• Choice of medical, dental and vision plans in all locations enabling team members to select the plans that best meet their family healthcare needs and budget.
• Benefit programs that help protect your income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury, and paid family leave.
• Robust paid time-off program and paid holidays.
