Micron Technology • Manassas, VA

56d • $135,000 - $169,000 • Onsite

About The Position

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever. This role involves monitoring and reacting to wafer quality indicators and quality events, proactively containing any deviated or non-conforming material, and creating technical product risk assessment reports. The position also coordinates Global MRB meetings, monitors Outgoing Quality Control, and assesses risk for planned deviations. Additionally, it involves creating and maintaining SBL QRA hold criteria, identifying root causes for RMAs & deviations, and driving corrective actions. The role collaborates with teams to formalize customer communication and leads projects to drive global compliance to manufacturing quality standards and support the Automotive Zero Defects program. A key aspect is designing and developing automation solutions for routine QA tasks, including developing QA dashboards and automated reports using R, Python, or Tableau, and building ML models and interactive Web API dashboards to predict wafer/die level quality.
