INTRODUCTION
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.
We're hiring a versatile AI Product Engineer to join our Business Function team — a hybrid builder-strategist who can define, design, and deliver AI-enabled solutions that move the needle on business outcomes.
This role is uniquely positioned at the intersection of business strategy, AI capability, and engineering execution. You'll own the what and the why of AI products in the business function, while being deeply fluent in the how — prototyping, scaling, and operationalizing innovative AI solutions.
You will be the connective tissue between collaborators, data, and AI — translating ambiguous business problems into shipped, adopted, and measurable AI products!
Responsibilities:
- Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for AI solutions in the business function — from vision, roadmap, and backlog to adoption and measurable outcomes.
- Lead discovery — user research, persona development, and requirements gathering — and maintain the product vision, roadmap, and prioritized backlog.
- Serve as the single voice of the customer for the agile delivery team; translate business needs into user stories with clear acceptance criteria and facilitate backlog refinement, sprint planning, demos, and release planning.
- Prototype GenAI and Agentic AI solutions, including prompt/context engineering and evaluation.
- Integrate LLMs via APIs, function/tool calling, and structured outputs; test and validate AI agents that automate or augment business workflows.
- Partner with data engineering to identify data sources, design pipelines/ETL, and ensure data quality, security, governance, and observability at scale.
- Direct UX/UI design in partnership with developers; lead training, change management, and adoption strategy; build feedback loops for continuous iteration.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
- A Master's degree or equivalent experience in Engineering, Data Science, Business Management, Information Systems, or a related area.
- 3+ years of experience across product management/ownership, business process analysis, data science, software development, and/or data engineering in semiconductor industry or related field.
- Hands-on experience building and deploying LLM/GenAI applications, with strong Python, SQL, and data manipulation skills.
- Experience deploying applications and applying software engineering fundamentals — testing, version control, and API design.
- Strong customer and collaborator communication, backlog management, and systems-thinking skills to translate ambiguous business problems into shipped AI products.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Prior experience as a Product Owner, Data Scientist, or Data Engineer.
- Proven experience partnering with business function stakeholders (Finance, Supply Chain, Sales, or Business Unit teams).
- MLOps/LLMOps tooling and production AI experience.
- Experience with Snowflake/Cortex and vector databases.
- Experience building multi-agent systems.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as an AI Engineer
Verify your role meets specialty occupation criteria
AI Engineer positions must require a specific bachelor's degree to qualify for H-1B sponsorship. Check your target job description against the O*NET profile for your SOC code to confirm the degree requirement is explicit, not just preferred.
Target employers with cap-exempt filing options
Universities, nonprofit research organizations, and government research labs are cap-exempt H-1B sponsors. AI roles at these institutions let you file outside the annual lottery, giving you a year-round path that bypasses the 85,000-slot cap entirely.
Search H-1B sponsors using LCA filing history
Use Migrate Mate to filter AI Engineer roles by employers with verified LCA filing history, so you're applying only to companies that have already demonstrated willingness and infrastructure to sponsor H-1B petitions for this occupation.
Negotiate premium processing into your offer
Standard H-1B adjudication can run several months. Ask your recruiter during offer negotiation whether the employer will elect premium processing through USCIS, which guarantees a decision within 15 business days and protects your start-date timeline.
Document project work that proves specialty-level expertise
USCIS RFEs on AI Engineer petitions frequently challenge whether the role requires a theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge. Compile technical documentation, model architecture write-ups, and peer-reviewed contributions before your employer files.
Confirm your wage level against OFLC Wage Search data
Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above the DOL prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location. Cross-check the offered salary against OFLC Wage Search before signing your offer letter to flag any compliance gap early.
H-1B Visa AI Engineer: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an AI Engineer role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
AI Engineer positions qualify as H-1B specialty occupations when the job description explicitly requires at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as computer science, machine learning, or electrical engineering. Roles where any technical degree is acceptable, or where the requirement is listed as preferred rather than required, can trigger an RFE from USCIS. Make sure your offer letter and the employer's LCA language both reflect a specific degree requirement tied to the job duties.
Which employers sponsor H-1B visas for AI Engineers?
Technology companies, financial institutions, healthcare systems, and federal contractors all file H-1B petitions for AI Engineer roles. The most reliable way to identify active sponsors is to search employers by their LCA filing history for computer occupations. Migrate Mate filters AI Engineer jobs specifically by verified H-1B sponsorship history, so you're not applying blind to companies without a clear sponsorship track record.
How does the H-1B lottery affect AI Engineer job seekers?
USCIS opens H-1B registration each March for a lottery capped at 85,000 slots annually, with 65,000 in the regular cap and 20,000 reserved for U.S. master's degree holders. If you aren't selected, cap-exempt employers including universities and qualifying nonprofit research organizations can file outside the lottery. Some AI Engineers also pursue O-1A visas as an alternative if their work demonstrates extraordinary ability.
What documents does an employer need to file your H-1B petition as an AI Engineer?
Your employer needs a certified Labor Condition Application from DOL before filing Form I-129 with USCIS. You'll need to provide academic transcripts and a credential evaluation if your degree is from outside the U.S., your CV listing AI-specific projects and tools, and any publications or patents that support the specialty occupation argument. Employers often request a detailed job duty description matching your degree field to reduce the risk of an RFE.
Can AI Engineers on OPT work for an employer while awaiting H-1B approval?
If your H-1B petition is filed before your OPT expires and you're selected in the lottery, the cap-gap rule automatically extends your OPT employment authorization through September 30 of that fiscal year. Your employer must file before the cap-gap window opens, so confirm that your OPT end date and the H-1B filing timeline align. USCIS requires that the cap-gap extension is based on a timely filed, non-frivolous petition.
