• Verification & Signoff – Conduct full-chip ESD reviews using tools like PERC and Pathfinder, ensuring compliance before tape-out.

• First Silicon Validation – Lead silicon-level ESD and latch-up testing, root cause analysis, and design improvements.

Qualifications

• Education:

  • BS in Electrical Engineering/Microelectronics with 5–8 years of experience

  • MS with 3–6 years of experience

  • PhD with relevant semiconductor design experience

• Skills:

  • Proficiency in Cadence design tools

  • Experience with PERC, Pathfinder or similar ESD verification software

  • Strong data analysis skills for high-current ESD behavior evaluation

  • Excellent technical communication skills for collaboration across R&D and design teams

Why This Role Matters

With shrinking device geometries in nanotechnology-driven semiconductor fabrication, ESD protection is becoming increasingly complex. The Senior Engineer will safeguard Micron’s DRAM, NAND, and NOR technologies against failure mechanisms at the nanoscale — directly impacting product reliability, yield, and global market competitiveness.
