Photolithography Engineer

Overview

Support the photolithography team by tackling critical lithography scribe challenges for memory devices. Model optical simulations, recommend scribe mark designs, identify root causes of sophisticated problems, train photolithography engineers, and lead projects addressing photolithography performance gaps on current and future memory and storage nodes.

What you'll do

• Understand technology challenges related to overlay and establish project plans for the N, N+1, and N+2 nodes.
• Work with vendor applications teams to find areas for overlay scribe improvement.
• Drive technical innovation as a recognized Micron expert in your field.
• Standardize methods and procedures across areas, departments, and/or FABs.
• Define and lead sophisticated, multi-disciplinary projects essential to Micron’s photolithography roadmap.
• Help craft strategic decisions.
• Work with process development engineers on photolithography issues and projects.
• Summarize plans, progress on experimental work, and conclusions in written reports.
• Provide advice and counsel to senior management on technical issues related to overlay scribe.
• Build strong customer relationships to understand customer expectations.
• Integrate AI-assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness while exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements.
• Identify, test, and share AI-enabled enhancements within the scope of work to contribute to continuous improvement.

What you'll need

• Strong understanding of photolithography.
• Understanding of optics.
• Understanding of the principles of photolithography and optical metrology.
