As a Package Design Engineer within the Package Development and Engineering (PDE) organization in Micron Technology, you will provide package definition and designs for advanced semiconductor devices. You will be working with a multi-functional team across several geographies to create package design databases such as package stack-up, simulation, route-study, substrate/lead frame layout, wire bond diagrams, and other design documentation. You will be ensure the completion of design activities within the project schedule and ensure that design outputs are within Assembly and vendor capability.
Responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:
- Conduct feasibility studies for various package options and assess designs for manufacturability and reliability.
- Work closely with multi-functional team to address packaging design challenge in the area of layout, electrical, thermal, mechanical, assembly and reliability.
- Interact with PDE assembly team and external assembly subcontractor partners to recommend package solutions to meet customer and/or market requirements
- Generate and update assembly documents in database. Provide drafting and drawing support for package drawings, interposer drawings, and manufacturing drawings.
- Support package and DFMEA reviews with assembly engineering and subcon teams.
- Support package technology development, including material selection, process development, DOEs, and related activities
- Support package technology development, including material selection, process development, DOEs (Design of Experiments), and related activities.
- Track and drive program milestones to ensure timely development execution.
- Provide design support for thermal/mechanical/electrical simulation analysis.
- Support and contribute to the Global Design, Simulation and Substrate (GDSS) team on continuous improvement efforts such as:Global design alignment activities
