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.

We are part of Micron’s Technology Development (R&D) organization, where we invent and enable the next generation of memory technology. We work at the leading edge of DRAM innovation, solving hard problems through deep technical expertise and global collaboration. Our work directly shapes products used at massive scale, and the impact is real and visible.
In this role, you will be a key contributor to advanced DRAM thin‑film process development. You will own critical process solutions, partner closely with integration, equipment, and manufacturing teams, and help move new technologies from early concepts into qualified, high‑volume production!

Responsibilities:
  • Translate DRAM product requirements into scalable, cost‑effective thin‑film process solutions
  • Develop, optimize, and characterize thin‑film deposition processes for advanced DRAM technologies
  • Identify and resolve process defects, yield issues, and reliability risks using data‑driven methods
  • Design and execute DOE, analyze results, and communicate technical recommendations
  • Partner with equipment and materials suppliers to evaluate new tools and chemistries
  •  Develop, implement, and monitor quality control plans, including effective use of statistical process control (SPC) techniques.

Minimum Qualifications:
  • PhD or MS with 3+ years of semiconductor industry experience in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Chemistry, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field
  • Strong foundation in process science, including reaction engineering, thermodynamics, transport phenomena, or plasma science
  • Demonstrated experience designing and analyzing experiments, including DOE
  • Proven ability to work independently and collaborate across cross‑functional teams

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Deep expertise in thin‑film deposition processes and tool parameter optimization
  • Experience supporting DRAM, HPCMOS, and/or EUV‑enabled technologies
  • Hands‑on experience with materials and surface characterization techniques such as XPS, AFM, XRD, AES, EBSD, or SIMS
