Job description

Systems Ownership Scope

As the designated System Owner, the incumbent holds end-to-end technical accountability for the following mechanical utility systems across their full lifecycle — build, construction, commissioning, and operation:

  • Cleanroom environment: airflow, differential pressurization, temperature and humidity control, and particle cleanliness to ISO 14644 classification.
  • Tool utility hook-up: mechanical utility connections to production tools - CDA, PVAC, exhaust (GEX/WEX/Scrubber), PCW, and ethylene glycol.
  • Tool-install execution: build, utility connection, LPOC tracking, leak-check, and facilities readiness in coordination with tool owners.
  • Associated monitoring: facility monitoring and control system (FMCS), particle counters, pressure/temperature/humidity sensors, and BMS integration.
  • Shows readiness and skill to incorporate AI-powered tools into everyday engineering tasks such as predictive maintenance, energy management, and optimizing mechanical utility systems with data. This supports Micron's AI transformation and smart manufacturing objectives.

Construction Phase — Build, Delivery & Commissioning

The Facilities Mechanical Engineer (Cleanroom) will develop and assess cleanroom design basis — airflow, air-change rates, pressurization cascade, and cleanliness classification — following ISO 14644 and Micron global standards. You will analyze tool utility matrices (TUM), hook-up diagrams, and point-of-connection plans. You will validate utility demand (flow, pressure, exhaust) against tool facility requirements. You are responsible for tracking site progress, workmanship quality, and cleanliness protocol adherence during build-out, aligned with Micron global and engineering standards.

Operational Phase — Operations, Maintenance & Budget

In the operational phase, you will serve as the accountable O&M owner for assigned systems throughout their operational service life, guaranteeing safe, reliable 24/7 availability. You will coordinate preventive, predictive, and condition-based maintenance strategies using RCM/FMEA methodology, planning and scheduling all maintenance activities via SAP PM. Manage OEM service contracts, specialist vendors, and in-house technicians, and lead breakdown response, root-cause analysis, and corrective/preventive actions to eliminate repeat failures. Additionally, you will drive optimization and reliability-improvement projects with quantified return on investment, energy savings, and carbon-reduction benefits.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent experience in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a closely related engineering field from a recognized university.
  • Experience in relevant mechanical/facilities engineering, with strong exposure to cleanroom environments and/or tool-install/utility hook-up programs.
  • Direct experience in a semiconductor, wafer-fab, data-centre, pharmaceutical, or other high-purity/critical cleanroom environment.
  • Project Management Professional (PMP®) or equivalent certification is an advantage for capital-project delivery and budget management.
  • Experienced in capital project delivery from concept building through commissioning and hand-over to operations, followed by long-term O&M ownership.
  • Hands-on experience owning an annual maintenance budget (OPEX) planning, forecasting, and cost control against target.
  • Working knowledge of BMS platforms, SAP PM, AI tools, and AI-enabled ways of working to improve efficiency, productivity, and decision-making.
