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 BEOL Engineer in DRAM Process Development Quality at Micron Technology, Inc, your primary responsibility will be establishing quality criteria and communicating quality and reliability issues to the Technology Development efforts. You will define, lead, and drive effective actions on key technology challenges that allow Micron to bring higher quality solutions to market sooner and to prevent quality and reliability related issues.

You will be driving the following:

Partner with technology development on latest products and technologies to define quality and reliability fail modes during Technology DevelopmentProactively work to evaluate, characterize, and mitigate Quality and Reliability risks and fail modes for BEOL on new processes and productsPartner with MFG Quality Assurance and Quality Engineer teams on current high-volume products to sustain and further develop the quality reliability (QR) fail mode listWork with key teams to define and validate specs and to mitigate known and potential Quality and Reliability risksFeedback critical customer quality and reliability issues that need design and development solutionsIdentify gaps and drive initiatives/programs to build margin around structural, electrical, and reliability performanceWork with key stakeholder to implement effective detections and controlsMaintain and facilitate the best possible communication between Process Integration, Product Engineering and Quality Teams for key Quality and Customer issuesLeverage critical to quality inputs to Improve critical decision points during the design and development phasePartner with Process Integration, Process and Equipment Engineering, Product Engineering, and 8D teams to find root cause and Corrective Action Preventive ActionsUnderstand BEOL reliability failure modes, the underlying physical mechanisms, and test methods for accelerating those mechanisms.Work with relevant stakeholders to ensure critical test structures and parametric tests for quality and reliability risks are implemented. Validate and define proper electrical spec limits.

Minimum Qualifications:
