Introduction:
We are seeking a Senior Member of Technical Staff to serve as the technical authority for advanced RRAM (Resistive RAM) technology development. This role provides endtoend leadership across RRAM device physics, stack engineering,bitcelland macro architecture, and test methodology optimization. The SMTS will define the longterm technical roadmap for RRAM platforms and ensure successful translation from research concepts to manufacturable, highquality memory solutions for embedded and standalone applications.

This position requires deep handson expertise combined with systemlevel thinking, strong technical judgment, and the ability to influence crossfunctional teams and senior stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define and own RRAMbitcelland macro architecture, including scaling strategies, array topology, sensing schemes, redundancy, and robustness margins.

  • Lead architecture tradeoffs balancing performance, power, area, variability, endurance, and retention for productlevel requirements.

  • Partner with circuit and SoC(design)teams to ensure seamless macro integration into customer designs.

  • Set technical direction for RRAM stack layer optimization, including material selection, interface control, thickness scaling, and variability reduction.

  • Drive deep understanding of RRAM switching physics, forming mechanisms, defect engineering, and reliability failure modes.

  • Work closely with process integration teams to ensure compatibility with advanced BEOL/FEOL flows and costeffective manufacturing.

  • Own definition and optimization of electrical test conditions, including forming, set/reset algorithms,readmethodologies, and stress conditions.

  • Define the associated RRAM ET parameters target and specification.

  • Lead comprehensive DC/AC characterization, arraylevel analysis, and qualification strategies to meet product and customer reliability requirements.

  • Drive silicon learning, rootcause analysis, and yield/reliability improvement based on statistical data and failure analysis.

  • Act as the primary technical decisionmaker for RRAM programs, resolving complex crossdisciplinary tradeoffs.

  • Guide multiple project teams from early concept through silicon validation, product qualification, and technology transfer.

  • Represent RRAM technology in executive reviews, customer engagements, and technical forums.

  • Mentor and junior engineers, building longterm RRAM technical depth within the organization.

  • Establish best practices, design guidelines, and institutional knowledge for scalable RRAM development.

Required Qualifications

  • PhD or MS in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, or related field with 12+ years of RRAM or emerging NVM development experience.

  • Recognized expert in RRAM device physics, stack engineering,bitcell/macro design, and reliability characterization.

  • Proven track record of driving RRAM technologies into silicon platforms or products.

  • Strong leadership, communication, and crossfunctional influence skills.
