About the role
As a Staff Design Engineer, you will design and optimize critical Flash memory circuits such as row/column drivers and sense amplifiers, focusing on performance, power, area, timing, and reliability.
What you'll do
- Own block and subsystem-level circuit design, optimization, verification, and layout supervision.
- Optimize designs from base-cell to full-chip level using HSPICE, FastSPICE, NC-Verilog, and related tools.
- Collaborate with Logic/RTL teams to define array functionality and develop efficient Analog/Mixed-Signal (AMS) architectures.
- Work with Technology and project teams on array waveforms, circuit integration, and full-chip floorplanning.
- Develop and maintain Micro-Architecture Specifications (MAS) and required design documentation, including ISO 26262 compliance where applicable.
What you'll need
- MS/PhD with 2–6 years or BS with 6–10 years of relevant semiconductor experience.
- Strong knowledge of analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuit design, CMOS device physics, Flash/NAND architecture, and reliability.
- Experience with custom circuit design and simulation tools such as HSPICE, FastSPICE, and NC-Verilog.
- Understanding of computer architecture, storage devices, and NAND memory systems.
- Experience with Linux/UNIX and scripting/automation.
- Ability to develop solutions spanning custom circuit and RTL/AMS design.
- Exposure to AI-enabled and Agentic AI technologies for engineering/design applications.
