Wet Mechanical Operations & Design Engineer

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.

Micron is seeking an experienced Wet System Mechanical Engineer to oversee the third-party design of wet mechanical systems including plumbing HVAC hydronic systems and process piping for water-based systems for high-tech large-scale construction projects. The Wet Mechanical Engineer will manage external design firms ensuring that wet mechanical systems meet stringent project specifications performance standards and regulatory requirements. This role requires deep technical expertise in wet mechanical systems strong project management skills and effective collaboration with multidisciplinary teams to deliver efficient code compliant and high-performance systems for semiconductor manufacturing.

The engineer hired for this position will be temporarily assigned to the construction engineering team for a period of at least two years or longer depending on project needs and construction progress. Upon completion of the construction scope the engineer will be transitioned to the Operations Engineering Group where they will assume responsibilities associated with operational support and sustaining engineering activities.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with external firms to build wet mechanical systems including plumbing and HVAC water-based systems.
• Review and validate third-party development work such as piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs) equipment specifications and system layouts ensuring compliance with project requirements and standards (e.g. ASME B31.1 UPC IPC).
• Conduct technical evaluations of third-party compositions verifying performance metrics such as flow rates pressure thermal efficiency and system reliability.
• Work together with external design teams contractors vendors and internal collaborators to align wet mechanical system compositions with facility needs and project timelines.
• Perform quality assurance and risk assessments on third-party constructions identifying and resolving issues related to constructability efficiency or compliance with building codes and laws.
• Ensure third-party builds integrate seamlessly with other facility systems such as Ultra-Pure Water (UPW) chemical systems or gas systems using Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools for coordination.
• Coordinate the execution of safety and regulatory protocols for wet mechanical systems ensuring alignment to OSHA EPA and local laws (e.g. Idaho State Plumbing Code International Mechanical Code).
• Support commissioning and testing phases by reviewing third-party development performance and coordinating with vendors for equipment validation and system startup.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelors degree or equivalent experience in mechanical engineering environmental engineering or a related field. Advanced certifications (e.g. PE LEED AP CPD) are a plus.
• 3-5 years experience in wet mechanical engineering including 2 years coordinating third-party design or managing design for plumbing HVAC hydronic or process piping systems.
• Proficient understanding of wet mechanical system development encompassing plumbing HVAC hydronic systems (chilled/hot water) and process piping for water-based applications in industrial or high-tech facilities.
• Understanding of industry norms and guidelines including ASME B31.1 Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) International Mechanical Code (IPC) and ASHRAE standards.
• Proficiency in reviewing engineering work including P&IDs 3D models and specifications using tools like AutoCAD Revit or Navisworks.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience coordinating third-party designs for semiconductor pharmaceutical or data center facilities with strict wet mechanical system requirements.
• Knowledge of balanced development practices such as water conservation energy-efficient hydronic systems or greywater recycling.
• Familiarity with clash detection and build integration processes using BIM tools.
• Experience in facilities system modeling and analysis to include PSA (Pipe Stress Analysis) and system hydraulics using PipeFlo.
• Ability to mentor internal teams or collaborate effectively with external collaborators to ensure build alignment.
