NTI Failure Analysis Engineer

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!

We need someone who is passionate about detecting problems, making changes for the better, and seek out innovative ways in how predict device performance! We are an equal opportunity company who values of People, Innovation, Customer Focus, Tenacity and Collaboration.

As Yield Failure Analysis Engineer in Micron NAND Technology Integration (NTI) Singapore department, you will be responsible for providing yield analysis for next-generation Micron products. In this exciting role, you will become a domain expert on physical failure analysis methods for any given electrical failure! You will also participate in the identification and communication of yield issues, assist with the root cause analysis for process deviations, characterize, probe, parametric, and fabrication data to identify the sources of failures.

Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to, the following:

Perform Failure analysis which includes conducting electrical characterization, perform electrical verification to confirm failures, and understanding PFA techniques available for de-processing failures

Drive failure analysis initiatives for the yield enhancement team. Create and deliver new methodologies, capabilities, and innovative ways for failure analysis de-processing failures

Participate in global meetings and present results to Product Development and Process Integrations teams

Collaborate with metrology and RDA team to re-define and validate inline detection capability

Assist and support the transfer documentation of layout/architecture fundamentals of new technology from R&D to manufacturing fab.

Understand and follow all health, safety, and environmental procedures and requirements.

Successful candidates for this position will have:

• Experience in the semiconductor industry in the areas of Process Integration, Yield Enhancement, Failure Analysis, Data Science, or Unit Process.
• In-depth knowledge and direct experience with nonvolatile memories
• Good understanding of the process flow, and interaction of process and device.
• Poses theoretical and/or operational knowledge of scanning electron microscopes (SEM), focused ion beam (FIB), Transmission emission microscopes (TEM), and Elemental Analysis (EDS, EELS).
• Fluency in Python, JavaScript, C or C++ is Windows, Linux, JMP statistic software is desirable.
• Ability to be self-motivated and self-governing with confirmed ability to work in a demanding and dynamic environment.
• Solid analysis, communication and reporting abilities with demonstrated presentation abilities.

Education:

B.S., M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering with 5+ years experience in failure analysis or 10+ years experience as Failure analysis engineer.

Develops new or modified process formulations, defines processing or handling equipment requirements and specifications, and reviews processing techniques and methods applied in the manufacture, fabrication, and evaluation of products. Involvement may begin at any step from pilot plant to full-scale manufacturing. Coordinates design requirement review with appropriate engineering/scientific personnel to ensure compatibility of processing methods. Compiles and evaluates test data to determine appropriate limits and variables for process or material specifications. May conceive and plan projects involving definition and selection of new concepts, equipment automation technology, and approaches in the processing or development of new or improved processes.
