As a Metrology/ Real-Time Defect Analysis (RDA) Engineer in MSB, you have the opportunity to work with a multi-functional team from different areas of the plant/ process areas to understand their tools and processes so as to create measurement recipes that can provide quick and accurate feedback on the product integrity, thus ensuring quality output. As technology advances, you will be constantly challenged with the need to innovate for newer, faster and better modes of monitoring. You will collaborate closely with vendors to explore best known methods to maintain high tool performance and embark on possible ways of cost reduction to ensure our product retains its competitiveness in the market. Additionally, you are required to work in both clean/non-clean room environment

- Set daily priorities and enable efficient communication.
- Schedule and perform preventive maintenance on assigned tool sets
- Ensure all Special Work Requests (SWRs) are processed correctly and in a timely manner
- Optimize tool maintenance schedules and utilization
- Resolve sampling strategy to meet business requirement
Ensure all Metro/RDA tool meet measurement and inspection standards.
- Set up tool qualification criteria, implement, supervising through SPC.
- Make decisions on how to address tools and products that are out of control for established SPC rules for both process and defect related issues
- Develop and handle projects designed to reduce cost, reduce tool measurement variability, improve availability, and find solutions to ongoing problems
- Partner with Process, Equipment Owners and vendors for equipment upgrades/enhancements to improve tool performance
- Perform periodic assessment, tool-to-tool matching and GR&R, etc. to ensure tool measurement accuracy.
- Evaluation and enable next generation tool to close metrology gaps.
- Partner with the metrology/inspection tool vendors to develop new hardware, software, and technologies.
- Perform tool evaluation and buy-off
Seek and drive methodology breakthrough to improve efficiency in metro/RDA function.
- Drive process improvement through new recipe creation that helps to provide accurate and faster feedback to the line, thereby improving the confidence level of the product.
- Participate in world-wide discussions for continuous improvement on the toolset(s) assigned across Micron sites.
- Set up processes, design and implement process monitoring, control methodologies.
- Establish business process standards, specifications and documents.
- Work with peer groups to test and vet new or continuously improve the Reaction Mechanisms and Procedures based on feedback from the end users.
- Write and publish reports that summarize projects, detection capability improvements, manufacturing productivity and cost reduction work.
Requirements:
- Bachelors in engineering/science/Statistics
- More than 2 years’ experience in Metrology/RDA in Semiconductor industry
- Knowledge of semiconductor Metrology/RDA equipment and understanding of Statistical Process Control (SPC), process control and its reaction mechanism
