Attracting semiconductor talent requires a fresh approach. As our industry faces a potential shortfall of skilled technicians, computer scientists, and engineers by the end of this decade, it is critical for companies to adopt bold new strategies to attract, engage, and retain talent. I recently shared the innovative strategies we’re implementing in 2024 to EETimes, read to learn more: Attracting Chip Talent in 2024 Requires New Strategies - EE Times

Micron Technology, Inc. has been a trailblazer in championing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) since 2020. Their commitment has not gone unnoticed, with the company being recognized as one of Newsweek's America's Greatest Workplaces for Diversity in 2023. In line with their DEI efforts, Micron has undertaken various initiatives to promote diversity in the semiconductor industry: - Workforce development plans in Idaho and New York focus on enhancing access for underrepresented groups, including investments in rural communities, veteran organizations, and tailored training programs for women, people of color, and veterans. - Investing in STEM education, Micron supports K-12 students and provides avenues, both traditional and non-traditional, into the engineering field. - Micron's approach includes developing customized DEI initiatives on a country-by-country basis, reflecting their commitment to fostering inclusivity globally. #MicronTechnology #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #STEM #WorkforceDevelopment #DEIinitiatives https://lnkd.in/gBe4inzf

Micron’s Expansion: A Leap Forward for Global Talent We’re thrilled to share that Micron’s commitment to innovation and growth has taken a significant leap forward with the recent announcement of a $6.1B investment under the #CHIPS and Science Act. This historic investment in domestic leading-edge memory manufacturing in #Idaho and #NewYork marks a new era for #Micron and the semiconductor industry at large.   https://lnkd.in/gY4PBnpE   This expansion is not just about building state-of-the-art facilities; it’s about the people who will bring these projects to life. As we gear up for this monumental growth, we’re on the lookout for global facilities and construction professionals who are ready to shape the future of technology. We’re actively hiring across different sites, with a special focus on the US, where the new facilities in #Idaho and #NewYork will be located. If you’re a talent in the engineering, facilities, or construction sectors, we invite you to join us on this exciting journey.   Explore career opportunities with us: US (Idaho and New York):  [https://lnkd.in/gkg6KnwJ) Taiwan:  [https://lnkd.in/gCJqtDPS) Singapore:  [https://lnkd.in/gQznF69x) Japan:  [https://lnkd.in/gTQfr7Wx) #semiconductor #Facilities #Construction #wearehiring

Big moment for the ecosystem! 🎉 We’re celebrating another leap forward in client AI with 500+ pre-trained AI models running optimized on Intel Core Ultra processors. This milestone is a direct result of our investment in client AI, the AI PC transformation, framework optimizations, and AI tools. Why does this matter? Because “models form the backbone of AI-enhanced software features like object removal, image super resolution or text summarization. There is a direct link between the number of enabled/optimized models and the breadth of user-facing AI features that can be brought to market. Without a model, the feature cannot be designed. Without runtime optimization, the feature cannot reach its best performance.” All of us here at Intel Corporation are committed to building a robust toolchain for developers and solid foundation that AI software users trust – and this milestone just goes to show that.
