Internship in Compression Algorithms for Memory Controller

Job Description

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.

At Micron, we tackle challenging tactical and technical problems to meet the demands of our fast-paced and dynamic development environment!

As an intern in the Controller Architecture team, you will gain hands-on experience in developing and optimizing features that may be included in future controller.

This internship is designed to provide an immersive experience into memory system. You will be working under the mentorship of one of our senior engineers and memory of technical staff, in a highly collaborative atmosphere, to find innovative solutions to meet requirements for our customers.

Job Responsibilities may include:

• Identifying compression algorithms applicable to system memory (e.g. LZ4).
• Creating workloads and benchmarks to compare compression algorithms.
• Comparing upside and downside of the identified algorithms and selecting the more promising options.
• Estimating latency and performance when accessing compressed data in system memory.
• Defining hardware and firmware architecture of the selected solution and writing a technical document that describes its implementation.
• Describing defragmentation operations, address indirection, and all other operations included in compression algorithms.
• Collaborating with hardware and firmware architects to optimize the solution considering the architecture of a full controller.
• Identifying software implications at OS level or system level related to the adoption of compression in system memory, including host-device interactions.
