  • Simulate and analyze designs, providing recommendations to improve performance and reliability
  • Collaborate across firmware, system, and validation teams to meet product requirements
  • Mentor engineers and contribute technical guidance across the hardware team

Requirements

Seeking a self-motivated, team-oriented Hardware Architect to develop Micron’s next generation Solid State Drive (SSD) products.

We build the hardware that powers next-generation storage using AI agents. Our team brings together deep technical expertise and hands-on problem solving to create SSD solutions that are fast, efficient, and built for scale. We work closely across disciplines, move quickly, and take pride in delivering designs that make a real impact.

This role is central to shaping how our SSD platforms are architected and delivered. You will drive key hardware decisions, influence system-level performance, and collaborate with experienced engineers to bring complex designs from concept to production. If you enjoy solving challenging problems and owning critical pieces of the design, this is a great fit.

This position requires experience in hardware architecture, design, power integrity; including modeling and implementations. A successful candidate will have a good working knowledge of commercially available PMICs and voltage regulators for low voltage designs. Experience with PCB design tools (simulation and analysis) and a thorough understanding of hardware development methodologies is a plus., * Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or computer engineering

  • 10+ years of experience in hardware design and system architecture
  • Strong foundation in circuit design, transmission line fundamentals, and power & signal integrity
  • Experience with PCB design, high-speed routing, and power subsystem implementation
  • Proficiency with simulation tools such as SPICE, IBIS, or Hspice, * Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or computer engineering
  • Experience designing hardware for large-scale manufacturing including DFx considerations
  • Hands-on experience with power integrity analysis in lab environments
  • Familiarity with PCB stack-up design, via technologies, and design constraint definition

Strong communication skills and experience guiding or mentoring engineers
