Microns HighBandwidth Memory (HBM) Digital Design organization is seeking a Digital Physical Design Engineer to drive backend implementation of highperformance lowpower digital logic used in advanced memory products. This role owns physical implementation from netlist through GDSII with a strong focus on timing closure power integrity congestion reduction and manufacturability in advanced process technologies. You will collaborate closely with RTL DFT CAD and verification teams to deliver highquality physical designs and support aggressive performance power and area goals in complex multihierarchy HBM systems.

Responsibilities
Complete physical build implementation from synthesized netlist through GDSII including floorplanning placement CTS routing and physical signoff
Drive timing closure across multiple modes corners and scenarios using industrystandard STA methodologies
Identify and resolve congestion IR drop EM violations powerintegrity issues and timing or power failures
Develop and optimize floorplans powergrid structures and clockdistribution strategies for highperformance and lowpower designs
Integrate custom analog or hardIP macros within a digitalontop flow and achieve timing closure around these blocks
Partner with RTL and DFT teams to influence partitioning constraints and earlystage microarchitecture decisions
Implement and validate lowpower techniques including multivoltage domains power gating and UPF/CPFbased power intent
Automate and enhance physicaldesign flows and debug EDA tool issues in collaboration with CAD and vendor teams

Minimum Qualifications
Strong understanding of RTLtoGDSII physicaldesign flows including floorplanning place and route clocking and timing closure
Experience with hierarchical fullchip integration partitioning and budgeting
Knowledge of PPA tradeoffs and powerdistributionnetwork analysis including IR/EM
