Key Responsibilities

  • Define technical strategy and lead multi-functional projects in structural and electric film development
  • Architect solutions and promote innovative technologies across teams
  • Influence technical standards and drive process improvements
  • Lead advanced process development, fixing, and integration
  • Mentor engineers and foster technical growth
  • Participate in global collaborations aligned with Micron’s engineering expectations
  • Integrate unit processes into full module packages and validate within and cross-module interactions, device/process linkages via wafer-level electricals
  • Drive complex problem solving across process/structure/hardware/device interactions—root cause analysis, FMEA, SPC, and corrective actions that recover window with no yield trade-off
  • Utilize advanced characterization (SIMS, XPS, TEM, EDX/EELS, electrical stress testing, TDS) to correlate process parameters to device performance; derive correlation models that predict reliability and scaling behavior
  • Lead multi-functional teams and vendor engagements to push hardware/process capability, set achievements, and secure resources
  • Publish internal papers, BKMs, and present to senior leadership; uphold Micron’s TLP tenets: Innovate, Focus, Impact, Influence, Lead, Mentor

Requirements

  • Advanced proficiency in thin film processing (Plasma Enhanced CVD, Thermal CVD, ALD)
  • Hands-on experience with structural and electric film hardware and equipment optimization (dielectric and carbon based films)
  • Hardware optimization: Precursor delivery & temperature control, chamber matching/segregation, batch vs single wafer trade-offs, metrology hooks
  • Strong understanding of process-mechanical-device interactions, reliability modeling, and 3D NAND scaling
  • Skilled in advanced characterization techniques (SIMS, XPS, TEM, electrical stress testing) and correlating process parameters to structural and device performance
  • Proven ability to lead technical problem-solving and support engineers developing their skills
