Staff/Principal Mask Design Development Engineer

As a Non-Volatile Engineering (NVE) Product Engineer working in the Mask Design Development team at Micron Technology, Inc., You will play a critical role in driving Design for Manufacturability (DFM) business process for new designs, ensuring high-quality mask designs are delivered earlier in the development timeline. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to develop and implement new DFM capabilities, enhancing design methodologies and tools for improved manufacturability and performance of the NAND products.

Key Responsibilities:

· Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate DFM best practices into the design process.

· Develop and enhance DFM capabilities, tools, and methodologies to improve mask design quality and efficiency.

· Engage with the NAND Design team to provide feedback on lessons learned and best-known methods (BKMs) from DFM and high-volume manufacturing experience.

· Ensure Si learning is incorporated into continuous improvement efforts for design methods and tools.

· Work closely with the Technology Development (TD) team to support test chips and early-stage development, including collaboration with CMOS and ESD teams.

· Own test chip activities, including meeting organization, reticle coordination, and layout design coordination.

· Build Relationships across the organization through participation in innovation forums and activities, identifying technical opportunities for improvement.

· Collaborate with Quality teams to engage in reliability of Reliability Sensitive Circuitry (RSC) and Design Failure Modes and Effect Analysis (DFMEA) related activities.

· Act as a Quality representative, driving corrective 8D, and preventive actions to enhance mask design robustness and reliability.
