Top Insider Advice

To a future team member at Micron, the most important career advice I would give, is to constantly keep learning and to never be afraid of failures. If you can learn from the past failures and always keep improving, then there will be no obstacles tor you to achieve a glowing career. Micron encourages employees to experiment and fail, but fail fast and learn quick!! In a technical and engineering organization like Micron, it is of utmost importance that you keep in touch with your core area of specialization. You do this by making maximal use of the company sponsored resources to advance your learning, and by reading about new technology and innovation in your field. Areas like Data Science are rapidly evolving everyday, and its in our and the company's best interests to always keep upskilling. This becomes more relevant keeping in mind that the semi-conductor business that Micron is in, is highly competitive. If we dont catch up with the market, then someone else already has!! Another advise will be to recognize opportunities to showcase your strengths. Sometimes, these opportunities will come in the form of obstacles. Grab these moments and make them work for you. Take initiative to build your career from strength to strength, do not depend on someone else to walk your career.

What do you live about your job and the company?

My current role enables me to directly hit the bottom line with respect to enabling smart manufacturing. From studying data to deriving deep insights and predictions and discussing and brainstorming with global teams, I am becoming a part of the process where Micron's process and design capabilities are taken a notch further. There is no further motivation than knowing that your skills as a data science engineer is being put to the best use by the organization to make its products more capable and future ready. When your accountability is fixed, then you know that you have become a key cog in the wheel of the organization's motion towards success. Another dimension to the work culture at Micron is the tremendous focus on developing a people-centric culture. Be it giving extra ordinary support for the employees during covid, or taking some time off due to personal emergencies, or recognizing and promoting talent, or celebrating small events, Micron does not leave a stone unturned in making employees feel at home. I always felt that I am part of a very big global family, with very strong support systems to ensure "People - First"

Greatest achievements

Within a span of 7 months into Micron, I was able to successfully build and deploy successful AI systems that increased manufacturing efficiency manifold. The AI systems enabled engineers at Micron to automate defect identification in images of the manufactured products. These defects would have been otherwise very difficult to detect and analyze manually. The AI systems are highly accurate and resulted in saving hundreds of manhours for key measurements and analysis. What I am most proud about is the fact that I fully utilized the opportunities that was provided to me to make an impact on Micron's core businesses, within a short span of time. The realization that I am a part of solutions that drive further AI, smart computing and intelligent transport systems is one of the most motivating factors for me at Micron.
