Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.
Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.
As a Data Scientist (Smart Manufacturing & AI) at Micron, you will develop data-driven solutions that improve semiconductor manufacturing yield, quality, and productivity. Working alongside senior data scientists and product owners, you will build predictive models, develop AI-powered solutions, and contribute to analytical pipelines that solve real-world manufacturing challenges involving die-level, wafer-level, and test data.
Responsibilities and Tasks
Test Solutions Engineering (TSE) Predictive Solutions: Build and productionize machine learning models (classification and regression) to support predictive and prescriptive analytics across semiconductor test and manufacturing processes.
Agentic AI and LLM Development:
- Contribute to the design and implementation of multi-agent systems for TSE workflows, including code generation, automated troubleshooting, and process optimization.
- Work with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines: identify data sources, develop retrieval strategies, and improve context quality for LLM-based applications.
- Assist in implementing tool-using capabilities, function calling, and agent memory systems.
Software Engineering and Productionalization:
- Develop maintainable code and analytical pipelines suitable for high-volume manufacturing environments.
- Optimize for performance, latency, and token efficiency.
- Collaborate with senior team members on testing, deployment, and monitoring.
- Communicate analytical insights, model behavior, and results clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Integrates AI-assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness,exercising sound judgment andcomplying withorganizational standards and legal requirements.
- Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement byidentifying, testing, and sharing AI-enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work.
