About The Position

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all. Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever. Our DRAM Engineering Group drives the physical implementation behind Micron’s most advanced memory products. We work across global sites and thrive on collaboration, problem‑solving, and pushing technical boundaries. We’re looking for a Layout Engineer who will play a key role in building high‑quality physical designs for our DRAM technologies. You’ll partner closely with logic, STA, and verification teams while shaping layout strategies that balance performance, power, and area. Your work will directly influence product success and team workflows across Micron’s global engineering community.

Requirements

• Experience performing physical layout using industry EDA tools (ICC2 or equivalent)
• Knowledge of timing‑driven layout and STA collaboration workflows
• Familiarity with DRC, LVS, physical verification, and reliability checks
• Ability to plan, document, and review layout goals with cross‑site teams

Nice To Haves

• Experience with DRAM, memory circuits, or large‑scale hierarchical designs
• Background in parasitic extraction flows and post‑layout optimization
• Hands‑on experience with partial custom layout (devices, small analog blocks)
• Strong communication skills supporting global engineering collaboration

Responsibilities

• Develop block‑level physical layouts using Synopsys ICC2, including floorplanning, placement, routing, and optimization
• Apply timing‑driven methods and physical constraints such as PDN, pin placement, routing blockages, and hierarchy rules
• Ensure compliance with DRC, LVS, density, and reliability requirements
• Support parasitic extraction, post‑layout verification, and ECO activities
• Create partial custom layouts for selected transistor‑level or small analog blocks
