Senior SOC Pre-Silicon Verification Engineer - HBM | TPG

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

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.

Job Description

The High-Performance Integrated Group (HIG) is a division within the Technology and Products Group (TPG). We are developing High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) solutions for AI and ML applications. Using TSV (Through Silicon Via), we stack multiple DRAM chips on a high-speed memory controller with an integrated logic chip in one package, significantly increasing memory density and bandwidth through parallelization. Our ultimate goal is to deliver the lowest power per bit solutions in the industry. 

Micron is looking for a Senior Verification Engineer. You will be directly involved in the SoC verification of next-generation HBM DRAM products and be a part of a multi-functional team of experts in Design Engineering, Product Engineering, Process Development, Package Engineering & Business Units to implement our HBM roadmap.  

You will apply your deep understanding of SoC Verification, testbench architecture, SoC verification methodologies, and 2.5D & 3D package integration to understand and analyze bottlenecks and propose innovative solutions to target best in class scalability, quality, testbench performance and verification cycle time. Verification and Testing (validation) of an HBM product are most challenging due to the size of the design and complexity of the functions. They require significant innovation, making this position uniquely exciting.You are a self-motivated, hard-working team player who enjoys working with diverse abilities and backgrounds. You have an innovative approach that is open to improving upon any of our processes or products.
