HBM RMA Quality Engineer

About our Team: 

The DRAM and Emerging Memory Quality and Reliability Assurance (DEMORA) team is dedicated to ensuring the quality and reliability of Micron's high-performance memory products, focusing on memory technologies like High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) and GDDR. We collaborate closely with engineering, manufacturing, and customer teams to address failure analysis and drive continuous improvements in product performance.

Position Overview:  

As a DRAM and Emerging Memory Quality and Reliability Assurance (DEMORA) Return Material Authorization (RMA) Engineer, you will lead the Failure Analysis (FA) process for customer-returned products, with a focus on electrical and physical characterization. This role requires you to drive testing strategies, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and provide actionable insights to improve product quality and reliability.
 

Responsibilities:  

• Perform and manage electrical characterization testing activities on HBM products returned to Micron to identify root causes.  

• Provide ad hoc support for GDDR parts as needed.  

• Collaborate with HBM fabrication, assembly, product, and test engineering teams to optimize testing strategies and processes for customer defects.  

• Develop and provide technical analysis reports to customers, identifying analysis observations, test coverage, and process improvements.  

• Optimize HBM RMA testing strategies to enhance the timeliness and effectiveness of the characterization process.  

Minimum Qualifications:  

• Strong background in CMOS circuits, circuit analysis, and electrical characterization techniques.  

• Good understanding of solid-state device physics, semiconductor processing, and characterization techniques.  

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to interact effectively with cross-functional teams.  

• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a multi-discipline team environment.  

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with bench EFA (Electrical Failure Analysis) or ATE testing.  

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a proven ability to address complex technical challenges.  

• Programming skills in Python, Perl, or other languages on Unix/Linux, particularly for data analysis and production data handling.  

• Industry experience in characterizing memory or CMOS products using electrical characterization techniques.  

• BS/MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering, or 3+ years of hands-on test engineering experience.
