Role Summary: We build enterprise SSD hardware that powers critical data center workloads, and we take pride in delivering high‑quality AI‑Enabled products to customers. Our team plays a key role in ensuring every drive performs as expected before it ships. We work hands‑on with cutting‑edge hardware and use deep technical insight to uncover issues early and improve designs. If you enjoy solving complex problems and working across the full hardware stack, you'll find meaningful impact here!In this role, you will serve as a critical checkpoint between design and customer delivery. You will validate and characterize SSD hardware across electrical, protocol, and system levels, ensuring performance, reliability, and functionality. You will work across NAND, DRAM, PCIe, and board‑level systems, using Linux‑based validation environments to test, debug, and automate processes. Your work will directly influence final hardware quality and customer outcomes.ResponsibilitiesValidate SSD hardware from bring‑up through full electrical and protocol characterizationCharacterize power, performance, NAND, DRAM, PCIe, and chip‑to‑chip interfacesIdentify hardware and component issues, drive root cause, and partner with design teams to implement fixesBuild and maintain Linux‑based validation environments and debug system‑level failuresDevelop Python automation and data analysis tools to scale validation and improve repeatabilityMinimum QualificationsBachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related fieldProficiency in Linux administration, scripting, and debugging of test systemsHands‑on experience with lab instrumentation such as oscilloscopes, analyzers, and power suppliesExperience validating or bringing up complex digital hardware systemsPython scripting for automation and data analysisPreferred QualificationsExperience with enterprise or data center SSDsValidation experience across power, performance, NAND, DRAM, or PCIePCIe Gen4 or Gen5 validation and calibration experienceExperience debugging chip‑to‑chip protocols such as I2C, I3C, SMBus, or UARTFamiliarity with CI frameworks and version control tools such as Jenkins and GitWhat We're Looking ForThe engineers who do well in this role tend to be self‑directed – they come to debug sessions with hypotheses and next steps rather than waiting for direction, and they follow a problem all the way through root cause and into the corrected hardware instead of handing it off. They build the automation, write the runbook, and raise the reporting standard on their own initiative, and they stay with ambiguous, multi‑layer failures that others walk away from, often reproducing issues another bench couldn't. They document their work so the next person doesn't start from scratch, manage several programs at once, and keep moving when one path is blocked.The US base salary range that Micron Technology estimates it could pay for this full‑time position is:$91,000.00 - $194,000.00 a yearAdditional compensation may include benefits, bonuses and equity.
