Key Responsibilities
- Assist engineers with basic RTL review, organization, and simple modifications (Verilog/SystemVerilog).
- Support Design-for-Test (DFT) activities such as scan chain checks, test structure integration, and report analysis.
- Help run synthesis and timing analysis flows using established scripts and tools.
- Review synthesis and static timing analysis (STA) reports to identify simple issues (e.g., setup/hold violations).
- Assist in debugging design and timing issues under guidance from senior engineers.
- Help maintain scripts, documentation, and design checklists.
- Collaborate with team members across design, verification, and physical design.
Required Qualifications
- Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- Basic understanding of digital logic (gates, flip-flops, timing concepts).
- Familiarity with Verilog or SystemVerilog from coursework (no advanced design experience required).
- Willingness to learn ASIC design flows, tools, and methodologies.
- Strong attention to detail and ability to follow structured workflows.
Preferred Qualifications
- Introductory exposure to DFT concepts (scan, basic test ideas) through coursework or projects.
- Basic understanding of timing concepts (setup/hold, clock signals).
- Familiarity with Linux/Unix environments.
- Exposure to scripting (Python, Tcl, or Shell) is a plus but not required.
What You’ll Gain
- Foundational understanding of ASIC design and test methodologies.
- Hands-on experience running synthesis and timing flows.
- Exposure to DFT concepts used in production silicon.
- Mentorship and guidance from experienced engineers.
- Practical experience working in a collaborative hardware development environment.

SK hynix Compensation & Benefits Highlights
The following summarizes recurring compensation and benefits themes identified from responses generated by popular LLMs to common candidate questions about SK hynix and has not been reviewed or approved by SK hynix.
-
Strong & Reliable Incentives — Profit-sharing linked to operating results and the removal of a bonus cap in Korea have produced very large payouts and materially boosted total compensation there. Reporting indicates these incentives have been especially favorable during the AI/HBM upcycle.
-
Healthcare Strength — Company materials highlight medical expense support and robust health coverage, and U.S. packages commonly include comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans. This strengthens the appeal of core benefits alongside cash compensation.
-
Parental & Family Support — Programs in Korea include fertility support, extended childcare leave, and education grants for children through university. These family-forward policies expand benefits value beyond salary and bonuses.
