About the role

Simulation and Modeling Hub

Role Summary

We are seeking a Senior Plasma & Multi-Scale Simulation Scientist to strengthen and expand plasma modeling capabilities within the Simulation and Modeling Hub (S&M-Hub). This role focuses on bridging plasma physics, surface chemistry, and feature-scale behavior to enable predictive, physics-based simulation workflows supporting advanced semiconductor process development (PEALD, PECVD, ALE, RIE).

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and apply plasma simulation models (fluid and hybrid CCP/ICP)
  • Bridge multiple scales including plasma-surface interactions, molecular/first-principles insights, and feature-scale behavior
  • Integrate plasma modeling with CFD, thermal, and multi-physics simulations
  • Collaborate with experimental teams to validate models using in-situ and ex-situ diagnostics
  • Translate modeling insights into actionable process and equipment guidance
  • Contribute to S&M-Hub roadmap development, best practices, and advanced modeling workflows

Required Qualifications

  • Ph.D. in Applied Physics, Plasma Physics, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, or related field
  • Strong background in plasma-assisted semiconductor processes (PEALD, PECVD, ALE, RIE)
  • Demonstrated experience in computational plasma modeling
  • Ability to connect fundamental modeling with experimental validation and manufacturing relevance

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with first-principles, molecular dynamics, or surface reaction modeling
  • Exposure to feature-scale or device-relevant plasma simulations
  • Familiarity with multi-physics coupling and reduced-order (ROM) or hybrid modeling approaches
  • Experience in industrial R&D or advanced technology development environments

Apply today to be part of what's next.

We make the tech that enables the chips in devices which improve lives around the world. We do this with an eye to the future, pushing the boundaries of what's possible through cutting-edge innovation, and driving the next wave of technological breakthroughs that shape how we live, work, and connect.
