Senior Engineer - Nand Cell Reliability

Have you ever dreamed of crafting a new technology that will become an industry standard? Micron has an outstanding opportunity for a high energy, ambitious, result driven individual with a strong work ethic and integrity to join us as a Reliability Engineer working on NAND cell reliability at Micron Technology, Inc.! You will be challenged to develop innovative NAND cell technologies to achieve the required performance within project timelines. In this role, you'll perform electrical characterization of NAND cell array and test structures to identify possible reliability issues. You will be responsible for crafting and coordinating the execution of high-volume electrical experiments to improve cell reliability with minimum impact on performance and yield. You will be part of a cross functional team to address cell deficiencies and identify failure mechanisms and risks. Your primary responsibilities will be: Risk assessment of NAND cell reliability, identification of the process/trim/test strategy to bridge the gaps for JEDEC and internal product qualification. Design experiments to identify and segment the limiting reliability mechanisms impacting NAND quality. Design high volume electrical experiments (both wafer level and component level) and perform statistical data analysis to validate process/trims solutions required to close reliability gaps. Update management and provide continuous feedback to process development and product engineers on the NAND reliability status and roadmap to bridge gaps. Contribute to develop forward looking technology path finding for next NAND generation, including reliability risk assessment and product capability projections, identify innovative design and product features required to meet quality specification. AI Responsibilities: • Integrates AI-assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness, exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements. • Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI-enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work. AI Requirements: • Ability to apply baseline digital fluency and role‑appropriate AI literacy to use AI‑enabled tools responsibly and effectively for research, analysis, content creation, problem‑solving, operational tasks, and achieving business outcomes Requirements : PhD/Masters Degree in Electrical/Electronics/Microelectronics/ Materials Sci/Engineering Degree or equivalent experience Proven experience with NAND device structures, operations and algorithms Knowledge and understanding of electrical properties of semiconductor and insulator materials, semiconductor device physics and solid-state physics In-depth understanding of physics-based modeling of non-volatile memory and semiconductor devices failure mechanisms, reliability analysis Knowledge and understanding of statistical analysis and numerical computing software (Matlab, Octave, JMP) Knowledge and ability of scripting languages (C, C++, Matlab, Perl) Familiar with Big Data and database queries Knowledge of JEDEC standards
