DRAM ASIC Architecture
Role Overview
Micron is seeking an experienced architect to drive the definition of next-generation DRAM products incorporating advanced CMOS-based logic die technologies.
This role will help define how future DRAM products leverage advanced CMOS logic die technologies to enable higher levels of integration observability reliability power efficiency security and system differentiation beyond what is achievable in conventional DRAM-only implementations. The architect will define architectures that leverage advanced logic die capabilities to complement and enhance DRAM functionality across LPDDR DDR HBM and future heterogeneous memory solutions.
The successful candidate will architect I/O reliability manageability interface test and system-enhancement functions. The role requires strong collaboration across DRAM design ASIC architecture packaging process technology product engineering validation firmware and system architecture teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Define next-generation DRAM logic-die architectures including functional partitioning between DRAM arrays peripheral circuitry and advanced CMOS logic die platforms to optimize performance power cost reliability and product differentiation.
- Identify and evaluate system interface reliability test management and control functions that may benefit from advanced logic-die implementations; perform architectural tradeoff analysis covering area power latency yield testability reliability and product scalability.
- Define scalable CMOS logic-die architectures and subsystem solutions using a combination of custom semi-custom and standard IP solutions.
- Architect high-performance interfaces between DRAM die and logic die including command data clocking synchronization test monitoring and management paths.
- Identify emerging opportunities & influence roadmaps for advanced memory system capabilities.
Minimum Qualifications
- BS MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science or related discipline with 5 years of experience in semiconductor architecture design or system engineering.
