Staff Engineer, Global Probe Modeling

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

Join an inclusive team passionate about one thing: using their expertise in the relentless pursuit of innovation for customers and partners. The solutions we build help make everything from virtual reality experiences to breakthroughs in neural networks possible. We do it all while committing to integrity, sustainability, and giving back to our communities. Because doing so can fuel the very innovation we are pursuing.

As a Global Planning Modeling Engineer, you will be a central contact for the Manufacturing network, calculating and communicating capital impacts of process changes to senior leaders in manufacturing and R&D.
 

As a part of Operations Central Team, you will be responsible for connecting many parts of the business in order to drive execution of manufacturing and cost savings processes, including Supply Chain, Finance, Engineering, Procurement, Production and planning.
 

Innovation is highly valued at Micron, and you will have the opportunity to develop new tools to expedite, optimize and refine the planning and reporting processes used across the network.
 

In line with Micron's AI transformation, this role is expected to actively apply AI tools (e.g., Copilot, agents, and analytics assistants) to reimagine planning and reporting workflows, accelerate analysis, and drive productivity in an AI-enabled way of working.

The ability to understand and effectively communicate capital impacts of manufacturing changes is essential. Everyday, our team has the opportunity to provide recommendations which will transform the future of manufacturing through data analysis and a global mindset.

Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Optimize capacity of installed equipment and lead site- and tool-level optimization studies for throughput enhancement.
• Collaborate with partners to understand future tool and process roadmaps, and calculate network capacity impacts of process changes.
• Responsible for managing, auditing, and validating Probe capacity models and systems to determine network capital requirements.
• Complete financial analysis before new capital equipment is purchased including metrics optimization, process flexibility, capacity sharing and equipment repurpose.
• Manage network tool utilization strategies to optimize the company's deployed capital.
• Communicate capacity metrics and strategies to all relevant stakeholders, driving accountability and monitoring key performance indicators plan over plan.
• Design, track and communicate capital change proposals to manufacturing senior leaders through reporting tools (e.g. Tableau) and formal presentation.
• Build and implement tools to audit manufacturing capital efficiency and identify cost reduction opportunities across the company.
• Manage and communicate improvement opportunities and implementation plans to all relevant levels and functions in manufacturing.

• Leverage AI tools (Copilot, no-code agents, and generative-AI assistants) to automate repetitive planning/reporting tasks, summarize data, and improve cycle time and decision quality.
• Identify and build AI-enabled workflow improvements within capacity and capital modeling, applying AI responsibly and in line with Micron's AI Governance Policy.

• Utilize new (eg Python) and traditional (Excel, VBA) methods to improve and automate tasks in planning systems/models
