Job description

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.Join an inclusive team passionate about one thing: using their expertise in the relentless pursuit of innovation for customers and partners. The solutions we build help make everything from virtual reality experiences to breakthroughs in neural networks possible. We do it all while committing to integrity, sustainability, and giving back to our communities. Because doing so can fuel the very innovation we are pursuing.As a Process Control System (PCS) Engineer you will be primarily responsible for starting up, developing and optimizing processes to improve product quality and reliability, working on process yield improvement, cost reduction, productivity improvement and risk management as well as resolving manufacturing line problems. You will also be required to identify, diagnose and resolve assembly process related problems by applying failure analysis, Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), 8D or Statistical Process Control (SPC)/Fault Detection & Classification (FDC) methodology. Additional responsibilities include coordinating and carrying out process, equipment and material evaluation/optimization to implement changes at process step, leading and participating in yield improvement and cost reduction activities, handling new process baseline qualifications and managing, auditing and liaising with material suppliers to achieve quality, cost and risk management objectives.Job Responsibilities:Integrates AI-assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness, exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements.Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI-enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work.As PCS Engineer we will be responsible to develop smart manufacturing solutions towards the Industry 4.0 standard. We will gain exposure and knowledge in many innovative areas including Machine Learning, Advanced Control Solutions, Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) and Deep Learning. As a PDE PCS Engineer, we will have the opportunity to develop a complete solution that starts with requirements gathering, data analysis and modeling with big data platform, followed by system development and integration; and then network wide implementation. The work we do directly affects the bottom line of the entire company by providing scrap/excursion control, Statistical Process Control (SPC), Advanced Process Control (APC or Run-to-Run), Fault Detection and Classification (FDC), and overall enhanced process capability. We will meet regularly and team with Process areas to understand their tools, processes, and challenges and work with them to create process control models, strategies, and other methods for ensuring quality output.We develop, implement and improve smart control solutions for optimum manufacturing performance.We provide technical advice and support for process control implementationWe conduct intensive data analysis and modeling to identify sources of variation in the process and translate it into control solutions.We support PDE Key Equipment Group (KEG) team in Classification, Characterization and Categorization and define Data Collection Requirements, Perform Integration and Setup Data Collection in Enterprise Equipment Engineering (E3) Environment.We define Analysis and setup Requirements and Setup Limits and Out of Control Action Plan (OCAP) and engage in periodic review with PCS team and network on Best Known Material (BKM) practices.We develop and deliver training on control systems and related topics.Job Requirements, Qualifications/ExperienceStrong analytical, logical, and critical thinking skillsEffective communicator, able to collaborate across all levelsGrowth mindset with a passion for continuous learningInternship or experience in the semiconductor industry is a plusDemonstrated leadership and a track record of impact are highly desirableInterest in and knowledge of the semiconductor industry and Micron is preferredAbility to apply baseline digital fluency and role‑appropriate AI literacy to use AI‑enabled tools responsibly and effectively for research, analysis, content creation, problem‑solving, operational tasks, and achieving business outcomes.Fundamental understanding and knowledge in semiconductor manufacturing and related advanced process control.PhD, Masters/Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering/Computer Science/Statistics/ Mathematics/PhysicsFamiliar and knowledgeable in various sensors applications for Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) preferredPassion for Programming and Data AnalysisFamiliar with Machine Learning and Data Science Analytical knowledge and skillsPreferred familiar and hands on experience in Python/R/SQL/Hadoop eco-system and/or in the development of web-based applicationsExcellent Project management skills.Ambitious and ability to multi-task and balance dynamic priorities.Good interpersonal and communication skills and a good teammate.Ability to participate in a multi-functional team environment.Willing and capable of international travel, as needed, to accomplish your objectives.Embody Micron’s core values:People – Respect, develop, and empower othersInnovation – Drive continuous improvement and breakthrough thinkingTenacity – Show grit and determinationCollaboration – Build trust and foster teamworkCustomer Focus – Deliver excellence and valueInclusion & Accessibility StatementMicron is committed to fair, inclusive, and merit‑based hiring.
