Sr. Manager, Package Design/Development Quality Assurance

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

Join an inclusive team passionate about one thing: using their expertise in the relentless pursuit of innovation for customers and partners. The solutions we build help make everything from virtual reality experiences to breakthroughs in neural networks possible. We do it all while committing to integrity, sustainability, and giving back to our communities. Because doing so can fuel the very innovation we are pursuing.

As a Package Design/Development Quality Assurance (DDQA) Senior Manager in Micron’s Global Quality (GQ) organization, you will lead a highly specialized engineering team responsible for enabling the successful introduction of Micron’s most advanced package technologies.

This role is central to ensuring that chip‑package interaction risks, reliability concerns, and customer integration challenges are identified and mitigated early—before they impact product qualification, customer deployment, or field performance. You will work closely with Technology Development, Design, Assembly, and customer‑facing teams to drive deep technical understanding of package‑level failure mechanisms, define robust characterization and reliability strategies, and guide critical engineering trade‑offs.

Beyond execution, this role offers the opportunity to shape next‑generation package technology by driving lessons learned into future designs, influencing industry practices, and publishing technical work that advances Micron’s leadership position. Success requires a leader who can combine technical authority, people leadership, and cross‑functional influence to deliver both near‑term results and long‑term technology impact.
