Job Description

Key Responsibilities
  • Design and development of analog and mixed-signal circuits for 3D NAND Flash memory, supporting array operation, peripheral circuitry, and power delivery.
  • Drive top-level integration and verification of analog IP within the NAND chip architecture, including interaction with array-level and peripheral power domains.
  • Collaborate closely with layout engineers to address dense routing, coupling noise, IR drop, and electromigration challenges specific to 3D NAND layouts.
  • Perform circuit simulations, silicon debug, and post-silicon characterization, with focus on array-induced noise, supply droop, and PVT sensitivity.
  • Conduct power integrity and noise analysis for NAND-specific stress conditions, including simultaneous wordline/bitline switching, charge pump loading, and peak current events.
  • Leverage post-layout RC extraction to evaluate parasitic impacts on wordline, bitline, and power networks, and correlate with silicon behavior.
  • Support chip-level power analysis across NAND operating states, including current profiling, peak power characterization, and margin analysis.
  • Interface with process, test, reliability, and product engineering teams to support NAND qualification, yield improvement, and high-volume manufacturing.


Qualifications
  • At least 7 years of relevant experience with a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent; advanced degree is a plus.
  • Strong understanding of analog circuit design fundamentals, including matching, noise, stability, power consumption, and layout-dependent effects.
  • Proficiency with industry-standard design and simulation tools (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, HSPICE, PrimeSim).
  • Experience analyzing post-layout simulation results and resolving power- or noise-related issues.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently and across disciplines.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with proven experience in a collaborative engineering environment.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with chip- or block-level power analysis, including IR drop, power integrity, and noise analysis tools.
  • Familiarity with RC extraction tools and methodologies (e.g., StarRC, Quantus, or equivalent).
  • Experience correlating simulation results with silicon measurements for power and noise behavior.


Additional Information

The compensation range for this role is $121,280 - $194,100. Actual compensation is influenced by a variety of factors including but not limited to skills, experience, qualifications, and geographic location.
