Job Summary

As a Data Scientist at Micron, you will employ techniques drawn from mathematics, statistics, and information technology to uncover patterns in data, drive predictive models, and develop actionable solutions for advanced semiconductor manufacturing. Your primary focus will be to support Process Integration and Process Engineering teams to enhance product yield and improve process variation.

You will interact closely with multi-functional process areas to solve manufacturing line problems and conduct root cause analysis. In this position, you will help develop software programs, algorithms, and automated processes to cleanse, integrate, and evaluate large datasets from multiple disparate sources—such as inline, param, and probe data—translating them into insights that directly improve process capability and device yield.

Key Responsibilities

• Yield & Process Optimization: Collaborate with semiconductor manufacturing engineering teams to analyze inline/param/probe data to identify top yield detractors and drive continuous improvement.
• Data Pipeline & Automation: Extract, cleanse, and analyze datasets from SQL databases, sensor networks, and fabrication tool logs to support semiconductor manufacturing operations.
• Advanced Analytics & Modeling: Apply data science techniques, statistical modeling, and machine learning to solve yield issues and support defect reduction strategies.
• Experimentation Support: Assist process and integration engineers in running and analyzing Design of Experiments (DOE) to enhance process capabilities and margins.
• Visualization & Communication: Develop automated reports and dashboards using visualization tools (e.g., Dash, Plotly, Angular) to communicate technical concepts and project outcomes effectively to engineering stakeholders.
• Integrates AI-assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness, exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements.
• Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI-enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work.​

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, AI, or a related Engineering field.
• Minimum 2 years of hands-on experience in data science, analytics, or scripting applications.
• Willingness to learn semiconductor manufacturing principles and collaborate closely with equipment and integration engineers to resolve production issues.

Required Technical Experience

• Programming & Data Engineering: Strong Python programming skills and working experience with SQL for data extraction and manipulation.
• Statistical Analysis: Familiarity with statistical tools, methodologies (such as SPC, DOE, or FDC/EDA), and data-driven problem solving.
• Data Visualization: At least 2 year of working experience applying data visualization tools (e.g., Dash, Plotly, Angular) to present complex engineering data clearly.
• Ability to apply baseline digital fluency and role‑appropriate AI literacy to use AI‑enabled tools responsibly and effectively for research, analysis, content creation, problem‑solving, operational tasks, and achieving business outcomes.​

Preferred Experience

• Prior experience or internship in the semiconductor industry, electronics manufacturing, or related fields.
• Basic understanding of semiconductor fabrication processes, equipment, and device physics (e.g., CMOS basic knowledge).
• Familiarity with advanced analytics or automated analysis for manufacturing and yield applications.
• Knowledge of memory architecture (DRAM/NAND).

Required Soft Skills

Effective communicator and collaborator, capable of bridging the gap between data science and traditional semiconductor engineering teams.

Analytical and problem-solving mindset with a demonstrated commitment to quality and continuous improvement in a fast-paced environment.

Proven ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and deliver high-quality results.
