A TD Modeling Engineer is part of the Industrial Engineering (IE) team within the Technology Development (TD) organization. The IE Modeling Engineer is responsible for establishment and maintenance of a base manufacturing flow for a given technology node. This role will specifically focus on establishing and maintaining a business process for the TD Development POR (dPOR,) interacting with each TD co-located site to establish a flow that represents the TD wafer corridor and can be used for capacity reservation. In addition to dPOR responsibilities, the modeling engineer will collaborate with the rest of the TPG Modeling team to manage cost and contingency list (CL) planning, ensuring that each Technode reaches its manufacturing cost target. The TD IE Modeling engineer's work product will influence the direction of the TD organization, and the planning for global manufacturing sites preparing for new technology introduction and ramp.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to the following:

Safety

  • Finishes the required safety training and conducts all work in accordance with Micron and Technology Development (TD) safety policies
  • Follows all safety and environmental procedures to ensure compliance with applicable regulations
  • Reports all safety-related concerns or problems immediately to the appropriate individual (Emergency Response Team, Supervision, etc.)
  • Performs audits and submits good catches on safety issues

Communication/Collaboration

  • Collaborates with TD partners to plan for future product introduction
  • Works closely with the Process Engineering, Process Integration Engineering, site TD teams and Site Industrial Engineers to establish and manage development POR flows that accurately represent TD development requirements.
  • Partners closely with the Process Development Engineering, Process Integration Engineering and Operations Central Team to keep updated CL and Cost of Transition (CoT) forecasts for new nodes to be introduced to manufacturing sites
  • Maintains Model of Record (MOR) process flows and communicates updates to stakeholders across the company
  • Coordinates justification and highlights impacts of TD MOR changes to worldwide manufacturing
  • Highlights impacts of dPOR process flows and collaborates with site IE to understand need for TD-driven capital pull-in and cross-charge.
  • Establishes and coordinates maintenance of XORBP process and delivers contingency list for a given technode.
  • Works closely with TD IE team to discuss changes that impact the business plan
  • Writes proposals and documents for reports/projects and to help explain significant impacts
  • Presents information optimally on complex ideas to peers, area leadership or other levels of management

Technical/Data Analysis

  • Scrutinizes impacts of dPOR and MOR process flow changes throughout the Technode lifecycle
  • Leads Contingency List business process in collaboration with PDE and PI
  • Evaluates potential capital and/or materials cost impacts of proposed changes in MOR
  • Calculates CoT scenarios and partners with TD, OCT, and Finance to understand the impact of the changes to the worldwide manufacturing network
  • Provides ongoing CoT analysis to track cost goals for ongoing TD part types and helps to identify cost reduction opportunities
  • Supports and builds scenarios for new technologies and to support the long-range planning for Micron

Project Management

  • Designs and coordinates projects that support key global partners
  • Plans for complex projects involving multiple areas, scope of work, and cost implications
  • Initiates successful implementation of new innovations into business processes
  • Uses a preventive problem analysis during planning phase and provides detailed contingency plans for likely issues
  • Accurately predicts resources required and maintains schedule
  • Assist in the development of business processes, systems, or procedures as needed
  • Establish and maintain documentation for existing and/or new business processes regularly

Successful Candidates should have the following Qualifications:

  • At least 2-3 years of semiconductor experience

  • Intermediate understanding of all Semiconductor Fab area planning modeling requirements and peculiarities
  • Available to travel internationally to other countries like Singapore, Taiwan, or Japan as required (up to 10%) to support business objectives
  • Familiarity of planning and reporting systems (PDM, MES, production scheduling logic, Data Navigator, GeRM)
  • Basic understanding of financial planning concepts
  • Excellent multi-tasking, time-management, organization and prioritization skills
  • Intermediate skills in SQL, JMP, Python and Tableau or PowerBi
  • Confirmed ability to establish and maintain effective relationships and work with team members from different skills disciplines
  • Shown ability to communicate sophisticated analysis in a succinct and actionable manner
  • Confirmed ability to plan, drive and complete projects effectively
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
