As a Probe Automation Technician at Micron Technology, you will work within the group passionate about probe automation. You will support software systems that maintain factory operations. The team maintains automation capabilities including autonomous material delivery, factory scheduling, and automation of on-site equipment. You will provide day-to-day operational support across shifts, monitoring system health, responding to automation alarms and failures, and performing first-level problem solving and recovery according to established procedures. You will work closely with shift manufacturing and equipment teams to restore automation availability quickly, raise issues to system owners when needed, and keep production flowing. Beyond daily support, you will take part in internal improvement projects that make automation systems more reliable and reduce manual effort for the team.

Responsibilities

• Monitor the health and performance of Probe automation systems, including automated material delivery, automated lot scheduling, and in-house equipment automation.
• Respond to automation system alarms, system errors, and lot staging or scheduling failures; perform first-level fixing and recovery in accordance with established SOPs and work instructions.
• Bring up unresolved or recurring issues to the respective system owners with clear, complete information on symptoms, timing, tools affected, and recovery steps already taken.
• Log and update tickets for all automation issues encountered, ensuring traceability and supporting downstream analysis of repeat issues.
• Support day-to-day production by partnering with shift manufacturing and shift equipment teams to minimize automation-related downtime and protect priority lot movement.
• Participate in internal operation improvement projects within the Probe Automation team, such as simplifying manual steps, improving monitoring and dashboards, improving recovery procedures, and updating SOPs based on actual shift experience.
• Maintain and improve automation SOPs, checklists, and problem-solving guides; share knowledge with other shift team members.
• Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI-enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work.
• Strictly follow all safety procedures, guidelines, and protocols.

Requirements

• Diploma in Information Technology, Computer Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Applied AI & Analytics, Mechatronics, or a related subject area; or equivalent relevant working experience.
• Able and willing to work a rotating 12-hour shift schedule, including night shift, weekends, and public holidays.
• Working knowledge of at least one scripting or programming language such as Python or Perl is required. You should be able to read existing scripts, make small modifications, and run them safely in a production environment.
• Basic SQL skills for querying databases to check system state, verify data, and support issue investigation.
• Hands-on familiarity with Linux-based systems (e.g., Ubuntu, RHEL, AlmaLinux), including basic command line navigation, log file review, and service status checks.
• Exposure to web technologies (HTML, CSS, or a framework such as Angular) is an advantage.
• Ability to prioritize effectively under production pressure and make sound judgment calls on lot and tool impact.
• Clear and concise communication skills, both written and verbal, for shift handover, ticket documentation, and raising critical issues to engineers.
• Strong learning attitude, teamwork orientation, and willingness to take ownership of improvement work beyond day‑to‑day support.
