Principal Engineer, HBM Design Quality Management
Job Description
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 Principal Engineer within the HBM Quality Management Systems (QMS) team, you will help establish, scale, and govern quality execution for next-generation High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) products, with a strong emphasis on precision in HBM design engineering and lifecycle governance. This foundational technical leadership position is centered on enabling disciplined, audit-ready execution across the HBM design engineering lifecycle—from architecture and design requirements through implementation, signoff, bring-up, and productization.
You will serve as the HBM design engineering authority for QMS, ensuring alignment to international quality and cybersecurity standards while driving modernization of quality practices tailored to HBM's system-level challenges. You will represent HBM Engineering in internal and external audits and work closely with HBM design engineering, validation, product engineering, and program teams to embed quality earlier in the development lifecycle ("shift left"), improving scalability, predictability, and tape-out/release confidence.
You bring the technical depth, operational accuracy, and leadership presence required to run elite QMS operations within HBM Design Engineering — and the influence to socialize future-ready quality solutions across Micron engineering organizations.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
Maintaining continuous audit readiness; represent HBM Design & Develop DRAM in external/internal audits (you will be the speaker for “HBM Design & Develop DRAM” at audits/assessments).
Leading and improving Design QMS reviews, templates, and governance within the DataTrail system. Providing DataTrail project setup, signoff workflow management, and ongoing administration.
Supporting SharePoint and EDC document repository setup aligned to audit and training compliance needs.
Collaborating with TPG Workforce Development to report training compliance in support of audit readiness.
Supporting JAMA requirements and datasheet traceability integration efforts.
Through a comprehensive understanding of the Micron QMS, driving improvements both upstream and downstream of the HBM Design process (“shift left” approach).
Maintaining the HBM Design & Develop QMS process maps and metrics in alignment with Design practices. Driving modernization of validation QMS processes, metrics, and reporting.
Minimum Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related engineering field.
10+ years of relevant experience in memory products, advanced semiconductor development, or system-level silicon programs.
Strong experience with Quality Management Systems and audit execution.
Demonstrated ability to prioritize effectively in a fast-paced, technically complex environment.
Strong project management, planning, and organizational skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with HBM, advanced memory products, or large-scale, multi-discipline engineering programs.
Experience with requirements management, traceability systems, and QMS tooling.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to influence across engineering organizations.
