Full description
We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior Manager to lead global quality deviation management programs across Front-End manufacturing sites and central organizations. This leader will drive strategy, governance, execution discipline, digital transformation, and stakeholder alignment to reduce quality events, improve deviation management effectiveness, and support Micron’s quality transformation roadmap.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead Global Deviation Management Governance
- Define, govern, and align worldwide FE Process Quality Engineering deviation management strategy, operating mechanisms, metrics, and business processes.
- Drive adoption of best-known methods across global manufacturing sites to strengthen deviation detection, containment, disposition, closure quality, and recurrence prevention.
- Lead global stakeholders in benchmarking performance, identifying gaps, setting improvement targets, and tracking progress against quality and business objectives.
- Govern deviation-related identifier tagging, reporting discipline, and business process alignment to improve data consistency, transparency, and decision quality.
- Facilitate workshops, quality forums, and knowledge-sharing mechanisms to promote collaboration, learning, and continuous improvement across sites.
- Drive Global Quality Event Reduction Programs
- Lead global programs to reduce non-conformance die and wafers, including excursion, inline deviation, scrap, and other quality event categories across Front-End manufacturing.
- Partner with site teams and central organizations to establish targets, leading indicators, execution plans, and governance routines that deliver measurable improvement.
- Build strong partnerships with Process Integration, Process Engineering, Product Engineering, Manufacturing, Equipment Engineering, and Quality teams to identify risks and accelerate resolution.
- Communicate program priorities, expectations, progress, risks, and decisions clearly to team members, stakeholders, and leadership.
- Oversee Yield Deviation and Quality Risk Management
- Lead global efforts to reduce process variation, yield deviation, and quality risk across Micron fabs while balancing wafer output, customer requirements, and cost of non-conformance.
- Develop and deploy strategies, systems, and governance models that improve quality event prevention, problem solving effectiveness, and sustainable corrective action.
- Drive alignment of best-known methods for problem solving in scrap management, deviation closure, and quality risk reduction across manufacturing sites.
