Full Job Description
As a Principal Design Verification Engineer at Micron Technology, you will lead the transformation of digital verification for next-generation DRAM products. You will drive the development of advanced verification methodologies, scalable testbench architectures, intelligent automation, and AI-powered verification solutions that improve quality, coverage, and engineering efficiency.
As a Technical Leader, you will mentor engineers, champion innovation, and collaborate across design, architecture, and product teams to accelerate verification closure and deliver high-quality silicon with greater speed and predictability.
Responsibilities:
• Lead digital verification methodology and infrastructure development for next-generation DRAM products.
• Architect scalable UVM-based verification environments, reusable verification IP, and automation solutions.
• Drive verification planning, coverage closure, and silicon quality across multiple projects.
• Innovate with AI-driven verification, intelligent automation, and data-centric verification workflows.
• Partner with cross-functional teams to accelerate product development and ensure first-pass silicon success.
• Mentor engineers and influence verification best practices across the organization.
• Champion continuous improvements in verification efficiency, quality, and productivity.
Minimum Qualifications:
• Bachelor's or Master's degree (preferred) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related engineering field.
• 10+ years of relevant experience in digital design verification.
• Strong expertise in System Verilog, UVM, constrained-random verification, functional coverage, and assertion-based verification.
• Experience developing scalable digital verification testbenches, reusable verification IP, and verification automation solutions.
• Hands-on experience with gate-level simulation and debug environments (e.g., circuit simulation and waveform analysis).
• Solid foundation in VLSI circuit design fundamentals.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with demonstrated technical leadership and mentoring experience.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience with memory products (DRAM, LPDDR, GDDR, HBM) or other high-performance semiconductor designs.
• Expertise with analog or mixed-signal verification.
• Experience leading verification methodology development across multiple projects or product generations.
• Advanced proficiency in Python programming, including object-oriented design and use of advanced libraries.
• Experience applying AI/ML technologies to verification workflows, including intelligent testbench generation, debug acceleration, coverage analysis, or root-cause analysis.
• Experience driving organization-wide adoption of new verification technologies, methodologies, or automation frameworks.
