Job Description

This position is associated with the sale of Intel's NAND memory and storage business to SK hynix (You can read more about the transaction in the press release - https://newsroom.intel.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2020/10/nand-memory-news-q-a.pdf). The transaction will enhance the resources and potential of the business' storage solutions, including client and enterprise SSDs, in the rapidly growing NAND Flash space amid the era of big data.

This is an exciting time to be at Intel - come join our 3D NAND component design team as a digital and mixed-signal verification engineer and work on one of the most advanced 3D NAND and SSD technology portfolios in the world. As the global leader in the semiconductor industry, Intel possesses many industry-leading SSD technologies including the most capable Quadruple Level Cell (QLC) NAND Flash products. You will be part of a world-class team that will transition to lead the SSD business at SK hynix.

This position aligns to Phase 2 of the transaction, which includes NAND technology and component development along with fab operations. Employees aligned to Phase 2 will continue to be employed by Intel and will continue to develop NAND technology and components and manufacture NAND wafers at the fab. Phase 2 of the transaction is expected to close in March 2025, at which time employees aligned to this phase of the transaction will transition employment to SK hynix.

The selected candidate will develop pre-silicon functional validation test environment, extract full-chip design to simulation models, creating behavioral models for analog blocks, and develop UVM verification components. Responsible to create test plans, develop test cases, evaluate Verilog and mixed-signal simulation results with automation tools, analyzing circuit simulation behavioral, and root cause design issues. The scope of the work requires the applicants to have solid digital and analog circuit background and can creatively apply the technical know-how (engineering fundamentals, scientific knowledge, systems thinking, analytical thinking, prototyping, and testing knowledge) against design constraints and boundary conditions (industrial design, cost, performance criteria, and other design constraints) to research, develop and mass producible solutions.

The ideal candidate should exhibit the following behavioral traits:

* Self-motivated individual willing to take and follow directions and deliver to schedule

* Strong communication and interpersonal skills

* Strong quantitative, analytical, and problem solving skills, problem/conflict resolution skills
