Full Job Description
**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. **Job Summary** Micron Technology is seeking a Principal RTL Design Engineer to lead the development of high-quality DRAM digital and mixed-signal IP. In this role, you will be responsible for the full RTL design lifecycle—from architecture and implementation through signoff—while delivering designs that meet aggressive power, performance, and area (PPA) targets. This position is in Boise, Idaho, offering strong opportunities for technical leadership, innovation, and collaboration across global teams. **Responsibilities** * Own and drive RTL design for DRAM digital and mixed-signal IP from specification through silicon-ready signoff. * Architect and deliver high-performance, power- and area-efficient RTL designs aligned with product requirements. * Perform and sign off front-end quality checks, including lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis, UPF, and timing QoR. * Collaborate closely with physical design, verification, and architecture teams to achieve timing closure and PPA goals. * Improve design quality and efficiency by refining methodologies, driving automation, and enhancing RTL design flows. **Minimum Qualifications** * Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering with 8+ years of experience, or Bachelor’s degree with 10+ years of pre-silicon RTL design experience. * Proven ownership of complex RTL/IP development from micro-architecture definition through handoff to physical design. * Strong experience with ASIC low-power design methodologies, including UPF-based power intent and power-aware CDC/RDC. * In-depth knowledge of RTL design, logic synthesis, functional verification, and static timing analysis (STA). * Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog and industry-standard
