Job description

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.

The high-volume manufacturing engineering team plays a key role in keeping Micron's wafer fabs running safely, efficiently, and at scale. We work at the center of manufacturing execution, balancing capacity, risk, and performance to support both development and high-volume production goals. If you enjoy solving complex operational challenges in a fast-paced environment, this is the place to make an impact!

As a senior engineer, you will focus on strengthening physical and chemical vapor deposition (PVD and CVD) area manufacturing performance by reducing operational risk and building stable, predictable capacity. Working closely with Manufacturing, Process Development, Industrial Engineering, and Operations, you will lead improving cycle time, throughput, and redundancy while supporting ambitious program timelines. This focus directly influences fab performance and development success.

Responsibilities

• Identify and resolve systemic physical and chemical vapor deposition (CVD and PVD) area issues affecting throughput, cycle time, and operational risk and model capacity planning


• Drive area performance using clear metrics, risk assessments, and data-informed capital decisions


• Effectively partner with Industrial Engineering, Process Development, Manufacturing, and Operations cross-functional teams to evaluate and influence capacity scenarios and mitigation plans


• Analyze operational data to communicate trends, risks, and improvement opportunities


• Through strong leadership, optimally collaborate with stakeholders to drive projects, lead strategic meetings and drive capacity management


• Lead safety and quality efforts including audits, good catches, and human QDR follow-up

Minimum Qualifications

• Master's degree in Industrial Engineering or a semiconductor Engineering equivalent degree required


• Minimum 3+ years of deep industrial engineering experience driving semiconductor equipment capacity planning or semiconductor area process engineering required


• Proficiency using SQL, Python and Tableau planning and visualization tools


• Experience supporting Physical and/or Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD or PVD) processes including fab capacity planning, floor scheduling, line management systems and fab operation


• Strong ability to manage multiple priorities while leading and influencing in a dynamic environment

Preferred Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Industrial Engineering or a semiconductor Engineering equivalent degree requiredExperience developing or deploying area-level operational management tools or techniques


• Background validating planning assumptions or supporting area-level strategic planning
