Engineer – PDE Process Control Systems

Job Title

Engineer – PDE Process Control Systems

Role Summary

Member of the Process Control/Defense Line 4 (DL4) engineering team responsible for defining global DL4 matrices, standardizing detection and disposition workflows, and driving automation and AI enhancements across Micron packaging and test sites. The role focuses on electrical test data analysis, failure-mode analysis, and improving DL4 signal consistency and automation.

Experience Level

Mid-level (years of experience not specified).

Responsibilities

Core accountabilities include defining global DL4 standards, improving detection and disposition automation, and collaborating across product, test, and quality teams.

• Define global DL4 matrices (turnaround time, overdue metrics, detection compliance, Statistical Bin Limits reactions, etc.).
• Ensure consistent DL4 workflows and signal behavior across sites.
• Drive automation and AI enhancements for detection and disposition (YIT, auto-contain, auto-disposition, SMAI-assisted detection).
• Monitor and maintain assembly and test specifications; review and release test programs.
• Improve existing DL4 systems through automation and optimization.
• Define and manage spec limits (analog values/limits, SBL bins, product-level ESD) and test coverage improvements.
• Perform failure-mode reviews, failure analysis modeling, and defense-line correlations.
• Standardize network dispositions and problem handling across sites.
• Collaborate with Product Engineering, Media Health, Global Quality, Advanced Packaging Technology Development, and Test Systems Engineering to drive DL4 projects.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and abilities to perform the responsibilities listed.

• Strong understanding of semiconductor device physics.
• Experience with device modelling and simulation using TCAD tools (Silvaco, Sentaurus, etc.) and compact modelling.
• Proficiency in circuit-level analog analysis and validation using tools such as HSPICE.
• Demonstrated ability to analyze electrical test data and perform rigorous root-cause analysis for device and package failures.
• Experience with failure analysis, failure analysis modelling, and correlating failure modes to DL4 signals.
• Hands-on experience with data analytics, scripting, and statistical modeling (Python, MATLAB, JMP, SQL).
• Strong communication and collaboration skills for multidisciplinary, cross-functional teams.

Education Requirements

M.Tech in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Physics, Materials, or a related field; project experience in the semiconductor industry. Preferably experience related to packaging, test, and reliability.
