The Senior/Principal HBM CAD Engineer is a technical leadership role within the Engineering Automation (EA) organization at Micron. We deliver DTK (Design Technology Kit) collateral, environments, tools and flows for the design, implementation, verification, & tape out of custom memory designs. These CAD tools and collateral enable DRAM, NAND, and other emerging memory designs on a range of industry-leading Micron-developed process nodes.

Responsibilities:

• Be responsible for the day-to-day support of CAD tools, flows and collateral provided by functionally organized CAD teams worldwide to HBM design teams at the Dallas or Folsom Design Center. The tools and flows enable all aspects of mixed-signal, transistor-level custom IC design including logical design, custom layout, parameterized cells, automated place and route tools, physical design verification (LVS, DRC), ERC, Layout Parasitic Extraction, pre and post layout net listing and simulation, digital and analog circuit simulation, timing and power analysis, reliability simulation and analysis (including HCI, BTI, EM/IR), tape out and mask generation.
• Drive close collaboration with HBM design, layout, & verification methodology teams to propose and co-develop capabilities outstanding or under supported by EDA vendors and deploy outstanding practices and methodologies consistently to High Bandwidth Memory designs worldwide.
• Drive research and development at the intersection of IC Design Automation and Machine Learning to envision, scope, develop and deliver solutions benefiting IC design.
• TSMC mixed-signal, custom-digital experience like ADE-XL, Spectre, synthesis tools (DC/Genus), implementation tools (ICC2, Innovus), STA (Primetime, Tempus), EMIR (Redhawk, Voltus etc), functional & timing verification of cell-based designs (dynamic simulation and static analysis).

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelors in Computer Engineering, Computer Science or Electrical Engineering
• 5+ years of direct CAD or Design experience in Digital RTL to GDS Flows.
• 5+ years of experience vetting and deploying sophisticated EDA software flows
• 5+ years of experience qualifying vendor tools and internally developed software releases

Preferred Qualifications:

• Masters or Ph.D. in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering.
• 15+ years of experience in CAD fro Digital RTL2GDS Flows.
• 1+ years of experience with Memory Design (DDR3/4/5, LPDDR3/4/5, HBM, NAND)
• 1+ years of experience running Agile sprints
• 1+ years of experience with ML algorithms and applications.
