As an MCT Operations Modeling Engineer in the Manufacturing Central Team at Micron, you will be part of the IE (Industrial Engineering) team that is primarily responsible for the MOR (model of record) business process, Greenfield scenarios, Database PDM, ADCS, MiCAP review and mananagement. Runs through the yield program reqments through Contingency Lists Impact Study, Vendor model introduction analysis Models (CoO, NPV, Impact).

In this role, your responsibilities will include, but not limited to:

FAB Process Knowledge

• Proficient knowledge of wafer process and traveler flows for main products.
• Understands high-level factory limitations.

Planning systems, applications, computer and MIcrosoft office skills

• Advanced knowledge of planning systems and tools  (PDM,  LPI, MICAP, DataNav)
• Understanding of system interaction, adept at extracting data from various systems, some ability to prototype software solutions.
• Demonstrates ability to utilize Office to develop presentations, manage projects and perform all other IE tasks in an effective manner.
• Capable of performing GeRM Recipe Lookup in order to validate accuracy of the PDM model.
• Proficient use of database to validate workstation rpt and utilization data.

Operations Modeling –Model maintenance

• Advanced ability to maintain accurate model (process flow, model metrics, tool of record) across multiple functional areas.  Considered a key contact for and engages in constant communication with Fabs, TD and MCT with transparent and comprehensive documentation.

• Validates and maintains Fab T model metrics, documents and communicates differences between POR, MOR and Fab models with a high level of attention to detail.
• Utilizes RPT models to validate TD, vendor inputs and estimate production RPTs.
• Understands impacts of MOR changes to Fab capacities.

Operations Modeling –area benchmarking/optimization

• Leads Fab network benchmarking and alignment meetings.

• Detailed understanding of RPT calculating, filtering and selecting.       
• Work with Fabs to document and close gaps between actual performance and world class performance.
• Participate in tool level optimization studies for throughput enhancements.
• Coordinates area specific reuse activities between sites.
• Continually working with partners (KEG, TD, Fabs) to understand future tool and process roadmaps and integrate into Fab capacity planning.  This includes used tool reallocation.

• Ability to influence POR based on efficiencies and / or financial impact.

Operations Modeling – Capital analysis

• Complete a thorough financial analysis before new capital equipment is purchased which includes metrics optimization, process flexibility, capacity sharing and used equipment.

• Ability to utilize existing CoO and NPV tools/ templates.
• Ability to provide and evaluate modeling options that enable lowest cost of operation.
• Systematically reviews and Area Capital during the Capital Cycle
