JR57810 SSD Firmware Validation (Evergreen)

As a Non-Volatile Memory Quality and Reliability Assurance (NVMQRA) SSD (eMMC/UFS) Engineer at Micron Technology, Inc., you will provide support for qualification programs, failure analysis, and data analysis toward qualification of next-generation SSD memory devices, which will involve the analysis of both internal and customer requirements, development of qualification plans, analysis of qualification data, performing electrical and mechanical analysis of failing devices and working with other engineering teams to identify root cause and/or new testing methodologies. You will perform risk assessments and provide support for manufacturing teams dealing with SSD quality and reliability issues. You will also be asked to gain new product knowledge, as well as develop and mentor talent.

**_ Key Responsibilities and Tasks:_**
- Manage New Product Qualification
- Define qualification plan
- Facilitate and manage qualification
- Comprehend failures and failure rates within the scope of the qualification
- Analyze Reliability data for product validation within specific internal and customer requirements
- Perform risk assessment at all decision points within the qualification cycle
- Perform Electrical Failure Analysis (EFA) and coordinate root cause and corrective action with other internal engineering groups
- Provide technical expertise to internal/external customer
- Communicate directly with customers as needed
- Review Customer qualification specifications
- Provide risk assessment to customer
- Assess customer feedback and communicate them internally
- Develop Product Quality and Reliability Testing Methodology
- Coordinate with research and development teams
- Comprehend new processes/technologies for product quality and reliability issues involving SSD products
- Comprehend new HW/FW technologies for product quality and reliability issues involving SSD products
- Inject SSD quality and reliability requirements into silicon component qualifications and development
- Develop product reliability test methods to assess new failure mechanisms
- Define test methodology and flows for product qualification
- Support Deviant Material Disposition
- Assess deviation for product quality and reliability risk based on component deviation
- Define evaluation(s) necessary to mitigate risk
- Facilitate and manage evaluations
- Disposition of deviant material at the appropriate level
- Internal Technical Support for RMA Material, Package, and Monitor activities
