Work is very important for sure! But in the end we should not forget we are humans, and too much work will burn you out. Actually, an excess of anything is not healthy in our lives (think about too much sport, too much eating, too much sleep etc.), and we need balance in our lives. I firmly believe that working SMART will bring way more benefits than just work HARD, especially in our industry. In fact engineers do not chose the semiconductor industry for the ease, but at Micron I am able to achieve what I could not in my previous company: work effectively AND a balanced life.

What do you like about your job and the company?
In Micron we have a GREAT teamwork in every department, especially when we are facing problems. I think my team is especially good when it comes to teamwork, and I love collaborating with my team members! Another awesome thing we do is going on team bonding activities, to get closer to each other, which is not something you get for granted in every company.
Greatest achievements
The project I am in charge of is an x-ray inspection tool with automation, and my team and I were able to achieve the successful criterias to implement this tool in only 1,5 years. If you work in this industry you know how long this kind of things take. For me this was definitely the greatest achievement!

For new graduates many fields of engineering are new concepts. For example Design for test can never be conceived in a graduates mind. Before joining design for test my thinking was restricted to only traditional design. This is in all accounts great to be a designer that you concentrate on the deeper circuit concepts. However unlike design limited to only a few circuits where one becomes a professional, in Design for test you get to experience how the whole design comes together. This gives a design for test engineer an edge in understanding design implications to things like yield, testability cost. Especially the cost of testing is the back-bone of production in pursuit of quality and affordability. But DFT sits at the sweet spot that enables an engineer to enjoy the best of both worlds of actual design and production. As an entrant, one would be looking for those positions where they can learn the most from to build their career. And DFT can be one of those positions.

Do not be afraid to speak out, that's where we start to know what you really want and support your growth in a smarter way; and do not be afraid to be wrong, that's where you learn and growth.
