Job Summary: Introduction

As a Package Materials Engineer in Micron’s Advanced Packaging Technology Development (APTD) organization, you will be expected to develop or select materials, integrate them into packaging solutions, characterize wafer and die level packages. As a Materials Engineer in APTD, your primary responsibility will be materials and process development to meet the packaging requirements of next generation semiconductor products. You will be expected to work with cross-functional teams to define and develop new 3D Integrated (3DI) packaging solutions including integrated Through Silicon Vias that enable next generation 3DI packaging technology to be transferred to high volume manufacturing. You will also be responsible for sustaining and making the improvement efforts to yield and equipment performance to achieve high device yield, reliability, and cost efficiency. Exert significant latitude in defining objectives of assignment and take accountability for delivering solutions that meet program objectives. You will be expected to work independently without considerable direction and yet demonstrate ability to guide individuals towards project objectives. You will be recognized as a material expert in broader areas by peers in the Manufacturing  and Technology Development organizations. Project scope not limited to specific process but a number of integrated processes or materials.
