About The Position

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions. We are part of Micron’s Technology Development organization, where advanced ideas become manufacturable technologies. Our team works at the leading edge of memory innovation, partnering across design, integration, manufacturing, and equipment suppliers to enable the next generation of semiconductor devices. This is where curiosity, experimentation, and impact come together. As a Photolithography Engineer you will play a key role in developing and integrating Low and High NA EUV lithography processes that directly shape future memory technologies. You will work hands-on with tools, materials, layouts, and data, while collaborating with global partners to move innovations from R&D into high-volume manufacturing. This role offers broad technical exposure and the opportunity to influence device performance, yield, and cost at scale. This role is full time at the NYCreates site in Albany, New York. You will collaborate with our Technology Development (TD) teams in Boise and Hiroshima to benchmark Low and High NA EUV lithography and enable Micron’s technical roadmap. NYCreates is a diverse consortium, and you will have many opportunities to work closely with suppliers and other companies while protecting Micron’s intellectual property (IP). This role supports the design and deployment of AI-enabled solutions that improve efficiency and decision-making.
