SR ENGINEER - PHOTO DRAM

Req ID: JR91030 – Sr. Engineer, Photo DRAM 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 Photolithography Engineer in Micron's R&D/Technology Development group, you will be responsible for process module development for memory devices and other photolithography and process integration related activities. In this position, you will work with Micron engineers, technology partners and vendors to develop unit processes that meet device requirements for next‑generation semiconductors, integrate processes as part of multi‑functional teams and ultimately provide technology transfers to Micron’s worldwide manufacturing network. Additionally, you will address process issues with manufacturing and work on continuous improvements for manufacturability including cycle time, redundancy and cost. Advanced process development tasks will include performing material evaluations; reticle, layout and OPC development; process window analysis; overlay optimization. Responsibilities Align with all safety protocols and finish the required safety items. Document procedures, transfer developed processes, and communicate results with the senior management team and manufacturing partners. Work jointly with equipment vendors to improve equipment design, test new equipment, and drive process improvements. Optimize cell yield improvement, failure analysis, and device performance through process techniques. Improve cycle time, resolve capacity‑related issues, and reduce costs. Document and communicate plans, status, and results of R&D projects in written reports and presentations, including the analysis and interpretation of data. Collaborate across multiple groups including process integration, process areas, design team, manufacturing, and equipment development teams. Review all types of literature to identify potential intellectual property opportunities and file disclosures. Minimum Qualifications Understanding of optics, including the principles and application of immersion lithography, polarized illumination, and low‑k1 imaging. Experience with chemical processes specific to lithography, including materials for 365, 248, and 193‑nm lithography. Experience with lithography simulation software and its application to low‑k1 imaging. Experience with material properties and characterization techniques of lithography. Required education: MS/PhD in Electrical or Electronics Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or another engineering or technical degree relevant to photolithography and process development. A B.S. with six years of semiconductor processing experience with emphasis on lithography will also be considered. Preferred Qualifications Strong skills for research and development and ability to create production‑worthy technologies. Ability to balance multiple tasks simultaneously and react to shifting priorities to meet business needs. Ability to develop and maintain relations with multi‑functional teams and vendors. Understanding or familiarity with the architectural structure of Micron’s memory products, semiconductor process flows and steps. Experience with project management tools and techniques. Strong interpersonal skills (written, verbal and presentation). Proficiency in statistics, data analysis, Design of Experiments (DOE), and Statistical Process Control (SPC). Micron is proud to be an equal‑opportunity workplace and is an affirmative action employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, national origin, citizenship status, disability, protected veteran status, gender identity or any other factor protected by applicable federal, state, or local laws. #J-18808-Ljbffr Micron Technology, Inc
