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 Data Science Engineer at Micron, you will employ techniques and theories drawn from areas of mathematics, statistics, semiconductor physics, materials science, and information technology to uncover patterns in data from which predictive models, actionable insights, and solutions can be developed. 

You will work well with Data Scientists, Data Engineers, Business Areas Engineers, and UX teams to identify questions and issues for data analysis projects and improvement of existing tools. In this position, you will help develop software programs, algorithms and/or automated processes to cleanse, integrate, and evaluate large datasets from multiple disparate sources. There will be significant opportunities to perform exploratory and new solution development activities.

Responsibilities include, but not limited to:

• Strong desire to grow a career as a Data Scientist in highly automated industrial manufacturing doing analysis and machine learning on terabytes and petabytes of diverse datasets.
• Experience in the areas: statistical modeling, feature extraction and analysis, supervised/unsupervised/semi-supervised learning. Exposure to the semiconductor industry would be advantages.
• Ability to extract data from different databases via SQL and other query languages and applying data cleansing, outlier identification, and missing data techniques.
• Strong software development skills.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Experience with or desire to learn:
• Machine learning and other sophisticated analytical methods
• Proficiency in Python and/or R
• pySpark and/or SparkR and/or SparklyR
• Hadoop (Hive, Spark, HBase)
• Teradata and/or another SQL databases
• Tensorflow, and/or other statistical software including scripting capability for automating analyses
• SSIS, ETL
• Javascript, AngularJS 2.0, Tableau
• Experience with time-series data, images, semi-supervised learning, and data with frequently changing distributions would be advantages.
• Experience working with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) is a plus
• Existing papers from CVPR, NIPS, ICML, KDD, and other key conferences are plus, but this is not a research position

Education:

• B.S. or equivalent experience in Mathematics, Computer Science, Data Science and Physics.
• M.S. or Ph.D. with specialization in Data analytics, mathematics, Physics, Statistics, computer science.
