Senior Applied AI Engineer; Semiconductor Manufacturing

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

Micron Technology is a leading innovator in memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence.

As a Senior Applied AI Engineer, you will apply advanced techniques from mathematics, statistics, semiconductor physics, materials science, and information technology to uncover meaningful patterns in complex data, develop predictive models, actionable insights, and scalable solutions that drive business impact.

• Develop and deploy AI/ML solutions to support semiconductor product development, validation, yield optimization, and manufacturing efficiency.
• Design, code, and maintain software programs, algorithms, and automated pipelines to cleanse, integrate, and analyze large, unstructured datasets from multiple disparate sources.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with subject matter experts across engineering, product, and service teams to understand domain challenges and translate them into data science solutions.
• Identify and communicate actionable insights from large data and metadata sources to product, service, and business stakeholders through clear analysis, visualization, and presentation.
• Drive exploratory research and innovation, staying current on the latest advancements in AI, machine learning, and data science and applying them to solve complex semiconductor problems.
• Support and improve existing tools and workflows by identifying opportunities for automation, optimization, and enhanced analytics.

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, Data Science, Physics, or a related field with 5+ years of relevant experience; OR a Master's degree with 2+ years of experience; OR a PhD with relevant academic or industry experience in data science and/or the semiconductor industry.
• Demonstrated track record of building and launching end‑to‑end data science solutions, including data engineering, machine learning algorithm development, UI/UX integration, and ML Ops.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as Python or R for data analysis, modeling, and automation.
• Strong communication skills—excellent written and verbal English‑language communication and presentation abilities, with the capacity to convey technical findings to both technical and non‑technical audiences.

• Semiconductor industry experience is strongly preferred; experience in the memory sector is highly desirable.
• Expertise with Large Language Models (LLMs), including fine‑tuning, prompt engineering, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), and evaluation of model performance.
• Familiarity with agentic AI systems—designing, deploying, or integrating autonomous agents capable of reasoning, planning, and executing tasks across complex workflows.
• Strong interpersonal skills with a collaborative mindset, a passion for teaching others about data science, and a continuous drive to learn and adopt new techniques and technologies.
