About this role
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, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever. For more than 43 years, Micron Technology, Inc. has redefined innovation with the world’s most advanced memory and semiconductor technologies. We’re an international team of visionaries and scientists, developing groundbreaking technologies that are transforming how the world uses information to enrich life. Our Opportunity Summary : Micron Technology is seeking a NY Electrical Operations Engineer to support the design, construction, commissioning, and operational readiness of electrical systems for a high-volume semiconductor manufacturing facility in Clay, New York. This role will provide technical guidance for electrical infrastructure, collaborate with design and construction partners, and ensure systems meet applicable codes, project specifications, safety standards, and operational requirements. Following construction and commissioning, this role will transition into ongoing operational support and sustaining engineering for site electrical systems. (Disclaimer) While you may not exhibit all of the characteristics/skills listed below today, we are highly interested in a team member who is anxious to grow in both technical breadth and depth. If you are open to learning from and being a valued member of a team of top-tier engineers, we are eager to help build on your existing foundation and expand your individual and collaborative skills in this exciting and unique opportunity. What’s Encouraged Daily: Provide technical oversight for electrical system design, including medium- and low-voltage distribution, grounding, surge protection, equipment layout, backup power, VFDs, MCCs, and related infrastructure. Review and verify design deliverables, single-line diagrams, panel schedules, specifications, load calculations, fault current analysis, arc flash studies, and protective device coordination. Support construction execution by reviewing RFIs and submittals, participating in field coordination, conducting inspections, and resolving design or constructability issues. Oversee commissioning, testing, startup, and validation activities using commissioning data, load testing, SCADA, power analyzers, thermal imaging, and other diagnostic tools. Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis for electrical faults, power quality issues, equipment failures, and system performance concerns. Develop and support preventive and predictive maintenance programs using CMMS, condition-based monitoring, ETAP, SKM PowerTools, and field data. Ensure compliance with applicable safety, electrical, and testing standards, including NEC, OSHA, NFPA 70E, IEEE 1584, IEEE standards, and NETA ATS/MTS. Collaborate with internal teams, external design firms, contractors, vendors, OEMs, and operations customers to support project delivery, system reliability, and operational readiness. How To Qualify: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field. 10 + years of experience in electrical engineering, including design review, construction support, commissioning, solving, or operations support. Experience with power distribution systems, motor control centers, VFDs, backup or emergency power systems, and electrical safety practices. Familiarity with electrical codes, standards, and analysis tools, including NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, NETA, ETAP, SKM PowerTools, Revit, or Navisworks. Ability to work 100% on-site at the project location and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced construction and operations environment. Experience and/or interest in developing Agentic AI workflows into current or future processes What Sets You Apart: Experience supporting electrical systems in high-reliability environments such as semiconductor,
