Global Facilities and Construction Senior Architect

As the Global Facilities & Construction (South Asia)– Senior Architect, you provide high‑quality architectural leadership and technical authority for the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities systems supporting Micron’s global semiconductor manufacturing network. 

You will act as a subject matter expert throughout all project phases – from concept design and construction to installation, on-going operations, and maintenance – ensuring environmental, safety, regulatory, and code compliance.  

Key Responsibilities 

Architectural Design & Leadership 

• Lead and define architectural design strategies for semiconductor facilities, including FABs, CUPs, Probe, Admin Building, and Miscellaneous Buildings. 

• Develop conceptual designs, detailed plans, and specifications in compliance with Micron’s global standards and local/international codes.  

• Provide technical support during construction, including submittal reviews, evaluating GC-initiated changes, developing project modifications, and conducting QA/QC reviews of design documents (e.g., architectural plans, specifications, and calculations).  

• Perform technical reviews of structural design work by A&E firms, GC design teams, and sub-consultants to ensure quality and compliance.  

• Prepare architectural design, RFPs, design documentation reports, and develop architectural layout plans, specifications, and cost estimates for projects.  

• Oversee layout, interior design, and space planning for FABs, CUPs, Probe, Admin, and Miscellaneous Buildings. 

• Conduct field inspections during construction to verify compliance with scope, schedule, and budget.  

• Apply International Building Code (IBC) for exiting, fire compartmentation, LEED, Green Mark, sustainability, occupancy, and building classifications.  

• Design specialized cleanroom components, including raised floors, demountable walls, and ceiling grid systems.  

• Ensure constructability in complex environments, minimizing disruptions near operating buildings.  

• Lead alignment of facility design standards, construction project management practices, and O&M best-known methods (BKM).  

• Perform regular field inspections and monitor projects to ensure adherence to Micron specifications, codes, regulations, and agreed scope, schedule, and budget.  

• Validate cost estimates and construction schedules for architectural aspects of projects.  

• Review and approve design drawings and specifications for completeness and accuracy.  

• Evaluate architectural drawing submissions and supporting documentation to ensure design integrity.  

• Review Autodesk and BIM 3D models for functionality, egress, maintenance accessibility, constructability, and clash analyses coordination with other engineering disciplines.  

• Inspect construction and installation progress for conformance to established drawings, specifications, and schedules. 

• Support all sites, including on-site presence for construction projects and resolution of critical architectural issues 

• Collaborate with consultants, contractors, and multidisciplinary teams to ensure timely, cost-effective project execution. 

Site Master Planning (SMP) & Space Optimization 

• Develop, propose, and collaborate with global and site teams to generate preliminary site master plan (SMP) concept designs for greenfield and brownfield projects aligned with company strategic goals. 

• Collaborate with multi-functional facilities teams to identify opportunities for space planning optimization and establish standards for critical facilities, rooms and areas. 

• Standardize and continuously improve facilities space management for critical systems, leveraging industry best practices and lessons learned. 

• Assess and mitigate risks related to space constraints in brownfield projects by conducting clash checks during preliminary stages and providing support for project continuity. 

Project Leadership & Strategic Alignment 

• Lead design and construction of regional greenfield and brownfield projects in alignment with global standards. 

• Collaborate with central sustainability, cost, construction, and line planning teams to ensure strategic alignment. 

• Provide technical support for site projects, Alpha to Beta technology transfer, and sustainability initiatives. 

• Review and approve site capacity expansion and sustainability CAPEX proposals. 

• Evaluate priorities
