What is lithography?

A Lithography job involves working with photolithography processes used in semiconductor manufacturing to pattern and transfer circuit designs onto silicon wafers. This role includes operating lithography equipment, troubleshooting process issues, and ensuring precise alignment and resolution of patterns. Lithography engineers or technicians collaborate with other semiconductor professionals to optimize process performance and improve yield. They often work in cleanroom environments and use advanced optical or EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet) lithography technologies to create smaller, more efficient chips.

What does a lithography professional do?

Daily responsibilities for a lithography professional typically include setting up and maintaining printing presses, preparing plates and materials, monitoring print runs for quality control, and troubleshooting any process issues. You may also be responsible for routine equipment maintenance, adjusting ink levels, and ensuring adherence to safety and production standards. Collaboration often occurs with prepress technicians, quality assurance teams, and supervisors to ensure that projects meet deadlines and client specifications. This role is hands-on and detail-oriented, making strong organizational skills valuable for success.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in lithography?

To thrive in lithography, you need strong attention to detail, mechanical aptitude, and a solid understanding of printing processes, typically supported by technical training or experience in manufacturing or print production. Familiarity with lithography equipment, process control tools, and safety procedures is essential, and certifications in print technology can be advantageous. Good problem-solving, time management, and teamwork are important soft skills for this role. These strengths ensure high-quality output, efficient operation, and safe handling of sophisticated machinery in a fast-paced printing environment.

How much do lithography engineers make?

Lithography engineers typically earn a median annual salary ranging from $70,000 to $120,000, depending on experience, education, and location. Senior roles or those with specialized skills in photolithography and equipment operation can earn higher salaries, often exceeding $150,000 annually.

Job description

Position Overview

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.

As a Lithography Pathfinding Process Development Engineer in Boise, Idaho, you will evaluate advanced lithography, including Extreme Ultra Violet (EUV) and High Numerical Aperture (High NA) EUV, on next‑generation memory parts.

Responsibilities
  • Lead and participate in pathfinding activities for new patterning technology across all lithography nodes, including 193nm immersion, EUV, and high NA EUV.
  • Develop EUV modules at our Technology Development (TD) site, setting up lithography processes and collaborating with other process areas and integration teams to meet manufacturing requirements.
  • Travel up to once a month to locations such as NewYork to support early learning for high NA EUV.
  • Work closely with defect inspection teams and the mask shop to develop appropriate inspection strategies for EUV masks.
  • Collaborate with manufacturing sites to align on equipment and materials requirements, ensuring EUV processes are ready for transfer.
Minimum Requirements
  • Understanding of EUV lithography, including differences between EUV and deep ultraviolet (DUV) lithography.
  • Knowledge of 193nm immersion multiple‑patterning processes, such as litho‑etch‑litho‑etch (LELE) and self‑aligned quadruple patterning (SAQP).
  • Knowledge of optics for photolithography or experience with photolithography simulation software such as Prolith or S‑Litho.
Required Education
  • M.S. or Ph.D. in Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, or a related photolithography field with at least 3years of semiconductor industry experience.
  • Or a B.S. in Engineering, Chemistry, or Physics with 10+ years of semiconductor industry process‑related experience emphasizing photolithography.
Preferred Requirements
  • Hands‑on industry experience with High NA EUV in a pathfinding setting.
  • Coursework or proven experience demonstrating strong statistical analysis skills, including design of experiments and data analysis.
  • Experience with JMP, Python, or other statistical analysis software.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to write and present clear and concise executive summaries for Micron and supplier management teams.
Benefits
  • Medical, dental, and vision plans available at all locations, allowing members to choose plans that best suit their needs and budget.
  • Programs to protect income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury, and paid family leave.
  • A robust paid time‑off program and paid holidays.
  • Additional information about benefit programs is provided in the Benefits Guide posted on micron.com/careers/benefits.
