Shift Engineer, TD Manufacturing Development

About the role

The TD MDE Shift Engineer supports robust shift-level operations at Fab 10N/X, acting as the bridge between real-time shift execution and the strategic objectives of the Technology Development (TD) team. The role translates priorities into actionable plans that ensure process stability, yield protection and operational excellence, working closely with the TD 1st Shift team, the HVM Shift Ops Team and multi-functional teams.

Key responsibilities

• Safety and quality: complete required safety training, adhere to safety and regulatory policies, proactively identify and resolve safety and quality issues, and reduce injuries, hazards and environmental incidents.
• Shift operations: act as second line of defense for shift-critical issues such as lot holds, dispositions, excursions and line-downs, interface with HVM Ops and TD 1st Shift teams, and ensure reaction plans and timely updates.
• Resolve on-shift process and tool issues, partner with PDE, EDE and suppliers to maintain process and tool performance, and manage projects within scope, schedule and deliverables.
• Process development support: FA/VPD submissions, wafer shipments, SWR execution and data collection, critical lot health checks and redundancy execution.
• Use data-driven analysis to troubleshoot yield and quality issues, support business processes (SPC, alarms, inventory) and partner with the 1st shift MDE team on training plans and strategic projects.

Required profile

• Masters or Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical or Materials Engineering, or 3-4 years of wafer fabrication experience.
• Flexibility to work permanent 12-hour day shifts and night shifts depending on business needs.
• Demonstrates Micron leadership behaviors and values.

Required skills

• Problem-solving, data analysis and knowledge of SPC, process control, yield and defect mechanisms, and process flow interactions.
• Proficiency in relevant Micron systems and tools such as SPC, GerM, MES Central and SWR.
• Understanding of yield, defect mechanisms, process interactions and GeRM risks.
