New College Grad - Product Yield Enhancement Engineer, HBM

Job Title

New College Grad - Product Yield Enhancement Engineer, HBM

Role Summary

Join Micron's product yield team to support bringing next-generation High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) products from design into high-volume manufacturing. The role focuses on failure analysis, fault isolation, and data-driven diagnostics to improve product reliability and accelerate production ramp.

Work cross-functionally with Product, Process, Assembly, Quality, and Management teams to identify root causes and recommend corrective actions.

Experience Level

Entry-level (New college grad). Guidance: 0–2 years of semiconductor industry experience in yield engineering, fault isolation, or failure analysis.

Responsibilities

Perform failure analysis and collaborate with teams to drive corrective actions and ramp production.

• Perform electrical failure analysis and fault isolation using emission microscopy, laser-based methods, and EOTPR.
• Analyze and model failure signatures from backend testing, qualification, and RMA data.
• Apply physical failure analysis (PFA) and de-processing techniques to isolate defects.
• Develop and maintain technical knowledge of CMOS/FinFET fabrication processes and device structures.
• Generate clear failure analysis reports with root cause and corrective action recommendations.
• Collaborate with Product, Process, Assembly, Quality, and Management to communicate findings and drive resolution.
• Use AI-assisted tools and data workflows to analyze large datasets and accelerate root-cause determination.
• Support flexible work schedules, including swing or night shifts as needed.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience; preferred items listed separately.

• 0–2 years semiconductor industry experience in yield engineering, fault isolation, or failure analysis.
• Experience with computer-aided design (CAD) tools, including layout and schematic analysis.
• Strong understanding of semiconductor device physics and VLSI design principles.
• Proficiency scripting in UNIX/Linux environments (e.g., Tcl, Bash, Shell).

Nice-to-have:

• Hands-on experience with fault isolation and failure analysis techniques.
• Knowledge of semiconductor packaging, assembly processes, and fabrication workflows.
• Experience in reliability engineering and quality analysis methodologies.
• Experience using AI-assisted analytics for anomaly detection and yield improvement.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Computer Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, or equivalent practical experience.
