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.

1\. OPEX Budgeting (Annual & Quarterly)

• Lead preparation of the annual OPEX budget for Construction & Facilities, covering utilities, O&M contracts, AMCs, repairs and maintenance, consumables, services, manpower contracts and other operating cost elements.

• Prepare quarterly budget refreshes and rolling forecasts; incorporate operational changes, ramp-up plans, contract renewals, escalations and inflation assumptions.

• Build cost models and bottom-up estimates with cost owners; maintain clear basis-of-estimate documentation and assumptions.

• Align budgets to cost centers, GL accounts and WBS elements as per Micron Finance structure; support budget reviews and approvals with the Program Lead and Finance.

• Identify cost-saving and cost-avoidance opportunities and incorporate them into budget plans.

2\. OPEX QVS Performance Tracking

• Track and report OPEX performance against QVS targets on a monthly and quarterly basis, including actuals, commitments, accruals and forecast-to-complete.

• Perform variance analysis (budget vs. actual vs. forecast), identify root causes and drive corrective actions with cost owners.

• Prepare dashboards and management reports for the Program Lead and site leadership; highlight risks, opportunities and spend trends.

• Support month-end and quarter-end close, and respond to Finance and corporate queries on OPEX performance.

3\. SAP Transactions – PR Issuance, GRN Adjustments & Accruals

• Create, modify and track Purchase Requisitions (PRs) in SAP with correct account assignment (cost center, GL, WBS), and follow up through approval workflow to PO conversion.

• Coordinate Goods/Service Receipts (GRN/SES) with requestors and perform GRN adjustments, reversals and corrections as required.

• Estimate and post monthly accruals for services rendered but not invoiced; reverse and true-up accruals in line with corporate accounting policies and close calendars.

• Monitor open POs, aged commitments and unutilized balances; drive PO closure and de-obligation of residual values.

• Ensure all SAP transactions are accurate, timely, auditable and compliant with internal controls (SOX / delegation of authority).

4\. OPEX P2P Tracking (PR to Payment)

• Own end-to-end tracking of the Procure-to-Pay cycle: PR → PO → GRN/SES → Invoice → Payment for all Construction & Facilities OPEX spend.

• Validate vendor invoices against PO terms, contract rates, GRN/SES quantities and service evidence (3-way match); resolve price/quantity mismatches and blocked invoices.

• Verify statutory requirements on invoices, including GST compliance, TDS applicability and e-invoicing details, in coordination with Accounts Payable and Tax teams.

• Maintain a P2P tracker with status, ageing and bottlenecks; follow up with Procurement, AP and vendors to ensure on-time payment and minimize vendor escalations.

• Reconcile vendor statements and support vendor ledger clean-up and resolution of disputes.

5\. Governance, Compliance & Continuous Improvement

• Ensure adherence to Micron procurement, finance and audit policies; support internal and external audits with complete documentation.

• Standardize OPEX processes, templates and reporting; drive automation of trackers and dashboards (e.g., Power BI, Excel/VBA, SAP reports).

• Partner with Procurement on contract scope, rate validation, escalation clauses and renewals to ensure commercial accuracy.

6\. AI-Enabled Ways of Working

• Use approved AI tools (e.g., Microsoft 365 Copilot, enterprise GenAI assistants) to speed up budget preparation, draft variance commentary, summarize contracts and SOWs, and prepare management reports, while checking all AI outputs for accuracy.

• Use AI and advanced analytics for OPEX forecasting and spend trend analysis, such as predicting utility, maintenance and contract costs from historical consumption and operating data.

• Apply AI and automation to P2P processes, including invoice data extraction, automated 3-way match exception flagging, duplicate or anomalous invoice detection, and accrual estimation support.

• Find repetitive OPEX and SAP tasks that can be automated (AI agents, RPA, Power Automate, Power BI) and work with Finance, IT and digital teams to build and scale these solutions.

• Keep financial data clean, structured and well governed so it can be used reliably by AI and analytics tools.

• Follow Micron’s Responsible AI, data privacy, information security and confidentiality policies; never put confidential vendor, pricing or financial data into unapproved tools.

• Share AI use cases and good practices with the Construction & Facilities team and support colleagues in adopting AI-enabled ways of working.
