Engineer - CE PYE

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all .

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.

As a Product Yield Enhancement (PYE) Engineer, you will work with a team responsible for taking next generation devices from design to mass production. You will focus on driving component test yield and product reliability at new product introduction to enable rapid production ramp and early time to market. Your responsibilities will require using electrical and physical characterization techniques combined with statistical analysis to identify defects introduced by the fabrication process. Additionally, you will be responsible for communicating and coordinating back-end yield improvement activities with Management, Product, Process, and Test Engineering teams.

• Identify causes of low yield through systematic analysis

• Work closely with various engineering groups to resolve fabrication process and defect related issues

• Perform electrical and physical failure analysis to understand failure mechanisms

• Use statistical tools for detailed data analysis on product to drive yield improvement projects

Required Education:

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering.

• Coursework in VLSI, device physics, semiconductor process, Python, and statistics are desirable

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Perform Electrical Failure Analysis and Fault Isolation

• Operate uMate bench test platform

• Characterize or model backend test, internal qualification, and RMA fail signatures

• Extensive understanding of physical and logical semi-conductor design

• Use layout/schematic to aid in fault isolation and fail signature modeling

• Understand various PFA and de-processing techniques for failures

• Understanding Fabrication Process and Package Assembly

• In depth understanding of CMOS process fabrication levels, steps, and methodologies

• Knowledge of the steps and details involved in the package assembly flow

• Understand reliability concerns that can cause delayed breakdown fail signatures

• Extensive expertise with process and assembly related defects as well as their causes and effects

• Provide clear and comprehensive fail signature information

• Understand probe, backend test, and qualification flows

• Generate organized and timely failure analysis reports with clearly communicated causes and effects

• Perform fab, probe, and backend data extractions to provide supplemental data

Successful candidates for this position will have:

• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills

• Strong grasp of concepts regarding thorough investigative procedure

• Computer aided layout and schematic experience

• Semiconductor process coursework and/or experience

• UNIX and Programming experience

• Experience working in teams and ability to work well with others

• Solid GPA

• Course work in VLSI design and semiconductor device physics (Preferred)

• Good communication skills

• Self-motivation and enthusiasm
