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 Opportunity Summary:

For more than 43 years, Micron Technology, Inc. has redefined innovation with the world’s most advanced memory and semiconductor technologies. We’re an international team of visionaries and scientists, developing groundbreaking technologies that are transforming how the world uses information to enrich life.

Interested in changing the landscape of artificial intelligence workloads? Come join the team architecting very high-performance memory systems for AI! In the Systems Pathfinding organization at Micron, we drive concepts across the stack, from applications to architectures and from concept to product. Interested in making a difference in the future of computing? This is your next opportunity!

As a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff or Fellow in AI Memory Systems Architecture, you will lead and be responsible for architecture exploration and definition of novel, tightly-coupled memory systems with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and yield working at the intersection between workloads, domain-specific architectures, memory systems, and heterogeneous integration. You will be part of a growing team of domain experts across platforms, systems architecture, component architecture, design, and advanced packaging. You will apply your deep knowledge of compute architecture and memory systems to drive optimizations enabled through advanced packaging. We encourage collaboration with technical partners across multiple domains in our effort to build the best memory systems in the world.

(Disclaimer): While you may not exhibit all of the characteristics/skills listed below today, we are highly interested in a teammate who is motivated to grow in technical breadth and depth. Suppose you are open to learning while being a valued member of a team of premier engineers. In that case, we are determined to help build upon your existing foundation, while rapidly growing your individual and collaborative skills in this exciting and outstanding opportunity.

*This hybrid role will be based out of our Folsom, CA office.

*A combination of education and experience will determine the Seniority level.

Extensive technical leadership experience with high-performance memory architectures, memory subsystems, and algorithms, including reliability, yield management, security, and scheduling.

Experience driving and documenting architectures in close collaboration with peers and collaborators.

Experience evaluating systems performance and value propositions with real workloads and use cases, whether through systems simulation tools or through emulation.

A history of building and driving deep, collaborative technical engagements with partners.

Ability to influence decisions through data-driven systems analysis.

Strong communication, influence, and negotiation skills.

People leadership experience.

Experience creating architectural specifications.

Experience with high efficiency architectures and designs.

Experience with domain-specific architectures (NPUs, GPUs, or other accelerators).

Experience leading sophisticated system-on-a-chip (SoC) architecture efforts.

Experience with SoC design in a modern process node.

Solid AI inference and training systems experience.

Experience with 2.5D memory systems, like HBM.

A Masters, PhD, or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field.

15+ years of proven experience.

A track record of sustained innovation from pathfinding to product.
