The Innovation, Technology and Products - Applied AI and Data Science organization builds AI, machine learning, and analytics systems for hard semiconductor engineering problems. We work directly with product engineering, reliability, test, manufacturing, and systems teams. Our engineers pair semiconductor domain knowledge with modern ML engineering, cloud platforms, and agentic AI. Everything we build is meant to run in production, not stop at a prototype.

We are looking for a Lead Engineer, Applied AI and Agentic Systems. You will own the architecture and drive delivery of AI systems that engineers rely on every day. Problems will reach you vague. You will turn them into designs, plans, and working software.

You bring depth in machine learning plus real strength in software engineering, cloud deployment, and agentic AI. You set direction, review designs, question assumptions, and grow the engineers around you. When a problem gets genuinely hard, you dig into the code alongside the team. If that sounds like your kind of work, we would like to meet you!, Micron Prohibits the use of child labor and complies with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, and other international and industry labor standards.
