Mechanical Design Engineer

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.

As a Mechanical Design Engineer in the Development Engineering team at Micron Systems Integration Group (SIG), you will be responsible for designing and developing mechanical fixtures, mechanisms, and finished equipment for semiconductor testing.  You will also perform analytical studies to determine optimal design considerations while directing support personnel in the preparation of detailed design, design testing, prototype fabrication and field implementation/distribution. This position will include new design/development activities, concurrent engineering, and sustaining engineering functions for legacy equipment. 

Responsibilities and Tasks  

• Mechanical design of automated/semi-automated equipment, tooling, fixturing, and support assemblies.  The output being design documents to include requirement specifications, CAD models, fabrication prints, detailed assembly prints, end use documentation, and test/check-out specifications.  

• Mechanical design and analysis computations (stress, strain, deflection, safety factors). 

• Finite Element Analysis (FEA), thermal design via calculation, and validation of thermal models using design of experiments. 

• Perform Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to determine optimal air/fluid thermal designs. 

• Advanced development of mechanical design using novel thermal materials and thermal design approaches. 

• Work with the New Product Introduction (NPI) team to ensure proper design for manufacturability, test, assembly, and quality control systems are established. 

• Perform risk assessments and Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (DFMEA) for sub assembly/system designs. 

• Interact and maintain close communication with other engineering disciplines, including controls engineering, electrical engineering, and software engineering, to translate customer requirements into engineering design documents. 

• Ensure prototype/manufactured product performance and manage product verification/validation. 

• Interact with Micron suppliers to drive new designs or the customization of existing products to meet unique internal requirements.
