ASIC Architect

Req. ID: 140012 

Seeking an ASIC Architect for Micron’s ASIC architecture team. You should have strong knowledge and experience with all aspects of the SOC design and implementation flow – including coverage driven verification, synthesis, P&R, STA, DFT, power-islands, floor-planning, CTS, IR-drop – and an understanding of how architecture decisions impact these flows. You will be responsible for developing, contributing, and leading ASIC macro and micro-architecture activities in our storage-based controllers. You should be highly motivated with strong communication skills, attention to detail, and quality oriented. Candidates with a take-ownership attitude will succeed in this role.

Responsibilities include, but not limited to:

• Reviewing product and FW requirements
• Working with other ASIC architects and with system architects to define and document the feature sets and data/control flows implemented by the controller and each of its component IPs
• Defining requirements for ASIC design, verification, and physical implementation teams
• Evaluating area, performance, power, and ease-of-implementation trade-offs between different implementation solutions
• Reviewing and configuring 3rd party IPs
• Supporting other teams in the ASIC organization and reviewing their work
• Supporting product teams with documentation, code-reviews, and silicon debug
• Continuously finding opportunities for improving design quality and design practices

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor degree in Engineering but Master degree preferred
• 10+ years of ASIC architecture experience with strong knowledge of PCIe + NVMe and/or UFS in a storage application
• RTL design experience in Verilog/SystemVerilog
• Knowledge and experience in various aspects of SOC design, verification, and implementation flows
• Experience with low-power design techniques
• Scripting and Unix shell language experience: e.g. Perl, Python, Unix shell scripts
• Ability to read and understand SW code
• Understanding of CPU and memory architectures, datapath pipelining mechanisms, distributed system design, ASIC low-power implementations, clock and reset methodologies

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with HW modeling languages
• ASIC architecture experience in NAND based storage products (e.g. SSD, eMMC, UFS, USB)
• Design/architecture experience with high-speed serial and parallel interfaces (e.g. PCIe, MIPI, DDR, LPDDR, ONFI)
• Design/architecture experience with NVMe and/or UFS host protocols
• Familiarity with automotive design and qualification processes are a bonus

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
