STAFF ENGINEER, TDT PD WET

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all .
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.

As a Staff Wet Process Development Engineer in Technology Development Taiwan (TDT), you will develop the wet clean, wet etch, surface preparation and plating processes for Micron's next-generation DRAM and carry them from development into high-volume manufacturing across Boise and the Taiwan fabs. You will own critical wet steps end to end — recipe and chemistry development, process control, technology transfer and yield improvement — working with Process Integration, Yield/FA, the fabs, and equipment and chemical suppliers.

What you will do
· Develop and optimize critical wet steps (e.g. single wafer clean, batch clean, vapor etch, dry strip, bevel/backside removal, Cu plating, drying) to meet etch rate, selectivity, uniformity, defect and electrical targets.
· Lead technology transfer and ramp: qualify new processes, tools and chemicals, set the POR baseline, and enable it at the receiving fab on schedule.
· Reduce variation: drive within-wafer uniformity, tool/chamber matching and inline variation reduction using SPC, FDC and R2R/APC.
· Lead root cause on yield and defect issues such as particles, residue, watermarks, pattern collapse and surface contamination, with PI and Yield using Model-Based Problem Solving (MBPS): characterize first, then prove the mechanism with DOE, SEM/TEM, SIMS/XPS and probe correlation.
· Drive process maturity (PMI) for your steps: raise capability (Cpk), close POR/MOR gaps and build tool redundancy to reach each PMI level on schedule.
· Manage chemical, consumable and equipment suppliers (SCREEN, TEL, Lam, Applied Materials) on quality, cost and productivity.
· Use data and AI tools (JMP/Python, MicA/Snowflake, Copilot, Claude Code) to automate analysis and speed up problem solving.

Required
· BS, MS or PhD in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics or a related field.
· 5+ years of semiconductor wet process experience (process development, HVM or advanced technology process improvement).
· Hands-on experience with wet process tools (SCREEN, TEL, Lam or Applied Materials) and a solid understanding of wet chemistry (e.g. SC1/SC2, DHF, SPM, hot phosphoric acid, TMAH).
· Strong DOE, data analysis and troubleshooting skills; working knowledge of SPC/FDC.
· Fluent Mandarin and English, able to present clearly to local and global teams.
· Willing to take short-term (1–2 months) and long-term (3–11 months) assignments, including Boise and Hiroshima.

Preferred
· Experience on DRAM critical wet steps (single wafer clean, vapor etch, dry strip, bevel/backside removal or Cu plating).
· New process introduction or TD-to-fab technology transfer experience.
· Surface analysis experience (SIMS, XPS, SEM, TEM).
· Knowledge of device physics and process integration; exposure to Photo, CMP, CVD, PVD or Dry Etch.
· Python/SQL or experience building AI-assisted workflows.
