Staff Design Engineer, DRAM

About the role

As a Staff Design Engineer on our DRAM team, you'll shape the circuits at the heart of our next memory generations. You'll own design decisions that directly affect cost, quality, reliability, and time-to-market, and you'll partner with talented engineers across design, verification, product, and manufacturing. This is a role for someone who enjoys working close to silicon and wants real ownership over the products they help create.

Responsibilities

• Design, lay out, and optimize Memory, Logic, and Analog circuits for new memory products
• Handle parasitic modeling and support design validation, reticle experiments, and tape-out revisions
• Oversee the layout process, including floor-planning, placement, and routing
• Run verification through modeling and simulation using industry-standard simulators
• Partner with Marketing, Probe, Assembly, Test, Process Integration, and Product Engineering to ensure manufacturability
• Use Generative AI tools to speed up design, analysis, and documentation while owning correctness and signoff

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
• 5 years of experience in CMOS and VLSI circuit design across digital and analog domains
• Hands-on mixed-signal design experience, including schematic design, layout, and circuit simulation using industry-standard tools
• Experience with power distribution design, parasitic modeling, and tape-out flows

Preferred Qualifications

• Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field
• DRAM or memory circuit design experience, including arrays, periphery, or datapath
• Familiarity with PEX and PVT corner analysis
• Experience using Generative AI tools (Copilot, Claude, or internal flows) for design, documentation, or debug
