About the role

Micron Semiconductor Operation Pte Ltd in Singapore is looking for a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff in its NAND Module Process Integration team. You will design, develop, integrate and implement process solutions that improve the yield and quality of next-generation 3D NAND products, with competitive cost and performance within the required timeline.

Key responsibilities

• Lead one or more process modules for the development and operation of a 3D NAND semiconductor integrated circuit
• Define structural specifications and process requirements for assigned modules, and set a clear direction and continual improvement plan
• Identify potential structure, electrical and reliability issues early and solve them proactively with process control, using a model-based approach
• Optimize structural development, electrical performance, parametric verification and process control and manufacturability
• Analyze materials and work with process groups to select new materials, driving changes from research into production
• Design and run device and process experiments, analyze the results and report on them
• Lead the module development team, including process engineers, and set goals and metrics
• Generate innovations and patent disclosures regularly
• Coordinate activities such as reticle tapeouts, flow changes and lot management across multi-functional teams, and support technology transfer to high-volume manufacturing
• Communicate key information through presentations and group discussions, and integrate AI-assisted tools into daily work

Required profile

• PhD with at least 15 years, or Master's degree with at least 17 years, in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Physics or a related field, with semiconductor industry experience
• Experience in R&D and technology transfer within the semiconductor industry
• In-depth knowledge of non-volatile memories (NAND) and the NAND process flow, and understanding of common yield and reliability issues (desirable)
• End-to-end understanding of PI modules on new NAND technologies and their structural and electrical fail mechanisms (desirable)
• Self-motivated, able to work in a demanding and dynamic environment

Required skills

• Data analysis, problem solving and process integration optimization
• Scripting, programming, engineering, business intelligence or analytics software such as Python, SolidWorks, Tableau or Power BI (desirable)
