Sr Metrology Process Engineer, Technology Development

Metrology Engineer

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.

We are part of Micron's Technology Development organization, where advanced ideas become manufacturable technologies. Our team works at the top tier edge of memory innovation, partnering across design, integration, manufacturing, and equipment suppliers to enable the next generation of semiconductor devices. This is where curiosity, experimentation, and impact come together.

As a Metrology Engineer you will be collaborating with process and integration guides to qualify Low and High NA EUV lithography processes and other technology development projects that directly shape future memory technologies. You will work hands-on with equipment, materials, layouts, and data, while collaborating with global partners to move innovations from R&D into high-volume manufacturing. This role offers broad technical exposure and the opportunity to influence device performance, yield, and cost at scale.

This role is full time at the NYCreates site in Albany, New York. You will collaborate with our Technology Development (TD) teams in Boise and Hiroshima to enable Micron's technical roadmap. NYCreates is a diverse consortium, and you will have many opportunities to work closely with suppliers and other companies while protecting Micron's intellectual property (IP).

Responsibilities:

• Develop and integrate metrology processes for advanced memory technologies
• Perform material evaluations, reticle and layout development, OPC, overlay optimization, and process window analysis
• Drive yield improvement, failure analysis, and device performance optimization
• Partner with equipment vendors to evaluate tools and improve process capability
• Document processes, communicate results, and support technology transfer to manufacturing

Minimum Qualifications:

• M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical or Electronics Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or other Engineering or Technical Degree relevant to Metrology.
• B.S. with 2+ years semiconductor processing experience with emphasis on metrology will also be considered.
• Experience or working knowledge in metrology or semiconductor process development
• Working knowledge of process characterization, data analysis, and statistical methods
• Ability to collaborate within multi-functional technical teams

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with metrology techniques that include methods of critical dimension measurement, registration measurement and films characterization.
• Experience working with semiconductor equipment vendors or R&D environments
• Experience providing and/or analyzing metrology solutions specific to EUV photolithography challenges.
• Proficiency in scripting (Python/JMP/SQL) for data analysis and automation.
