IDMFull-timeFront End

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the development, standardization, benchmarking, and continuous improvement of FE ME operation/equipment metrics, capacity readiness processes, business processes, and BKMs across all sites.
  • Govern Fab Manufacturing Engineering operational ground rules and ensure consistent alignment of methodologies, metrics, and best practices globally.
  • Act as a global/area technical SME to optimize area operations, systems integration, and digital ecosystem adoption, driving global standardization and systemization of BKMs into long‑term ME blueprints.
  • Facilitate WW ME forums, area network meetings, and sustain/audit existing global BKMs and business processes.
  • Analyze line performance, equipment utilization, OEE, workstation/block WPD, and capacity readiness using Theory of Constraints and Lean Manufacturing.
  • Proactively drive area efficiency improvement by deep‑diving into root causes of equipment availability losses, operating losses, and baseline capability gaps—partnering with Site Manufacturing, Process, Equipment, and SIC teams.
  • Forecast potential roadblocks in constraint workstation management and work with Site Manufacturing Managers to create mitigation plans.
  • Lead proof‑of‑concepts and deployment of automation solutions, scheduling enhancements, BKM dashboards, and digital reporting to improve fab productivity.
  • Govern global change processes and drive scheduling system improvements that enhance predictability, agility, and performance.
  • Drive BKM knowledge sharing and effective implementation across FE sites, fostering a strong culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.
  • Build a motivating environment that strengthens team engagement and enables members to reach their fullest potential.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional and multicultural teams globally, demonstrating strong cultural agility and the ability to build rapport remotely and in person.

  • Minimum 3 years of experience in Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or relevant semiconductor engineering roles.
  • Intermediate knowledge of the 300mm fully-automated semiconductor manufacturing process preferred.
  • Strong understanding of Lean Manufacturing, Theory of Constraints, Fab Capacity Management, Equipment Utilization, and Line Management.
  • In-depth knowledge of MES, Scheduling Systems, Line Management systems, and related production/planning reporting tools.
  • Proficiency in data analytics and visualization tools (e.g., SQL, Python, Tableau) to enable automation and data-driven decision making.
  • Experience in cycle time management, inventory optimization, constraint management, and fab operations analytics.
  • Lean Six Sigma certification (Green/Black Belt) or Project Management Professional (PMP) or equivalent certification is preferred.
  • Demonstrated initiative, tenacity, and ability to identify the right collaborators to drive impactful results across global teams.
  • Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with proven success applying engineering knowledge to develop scalable solutions deployable across all Micron sites.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence and engage stakeholders at all levels.
  • Strong organizational skills with the flexibility to assume new responsibilities based on dynamic business needs.
  • Ability to travel to Micron sites as needed for collaboration and alignment.
  • Proven track record of effective teamwork in a global environment.
  • Strong cultural awareness and agility to drive alignment and build rapport across sites using both in‑person and digital collaboration tools.
