Excited to create new ways to computationally model physical phenomena? And then code it all the way from prototype to production? If so, we have opportunities for passionate software engineers with strong backgrounds in physical modeling and simulation. As a key member of our modeling team, you will design and implement algorithms for simulating the physical phenomena that play a crucial role in the fabrication of cutting-edge nanoscale semiconductor devices. Your work will have a direct impact on how our partners and customers design and create highly complex 3D structures for today's semiconductor devices. This is a hands-on software engineering position requiring expertise in numerical methods, physical modeling, and proficiency in C .

You will be able to learn and grow as part of the open and collaborative team that builds the modelingcapabilities of the well-established software product. is now part of the newSolutions initiative to create a software ecosystem to tackle the semiconductor industry's greatest challenges.

• Explore new approaches to model phenomena in semiconductor fabrication.
• Design efficient algorithms to simulate those physical phenomena.
• Implement the algorithms using advanced data structures such as octrees forscalability.
• Optimize those algorithms for speed and robustness through profiling and parallelization.
• Produce high-quality software that is well documented, tested, and maintainable.
• Collaborate with our applications team to understand and troubleshoot customer needs

• PhD or MS in engineering, mathematics, physics, or computer science related to 3D modeling, simulation, scientific computing, or semiconductors
• Direct experience with the implementation of 3D physical simulation algorithms, such as finite element, finite volume, or particle-based methods
• Strong background in modern C programming and software engineering
• Strong fundamental math skills, including linear algebra, calculus, and geometry
• Team player who thrives in a collaborative environment
• Excellent communication skills in English, ability to clearly communicate complex technical concepts

This position is in Waltham, MA and you are expected to work at least 3 days a week from the office.

• Broad background innumerical methods and scientific computing
• Professional software engineering experience, preferably developing a 3D modeling software product
• Knowledge of object-oriented design, agile methods, and Windows/Linux cross-platform development
• Experience with C libraries such as boost, STL, or Qt; Python coding skills.
• Knowledge of semiconductor process technology, design, and manufacturing
• Familiarity with molecular dynamics or other modeling methods for atomistic phenomena

We believe it is important for every person to feel valued, included, and empowered to achieve their full potential. By bringing unique individuals and viewpoints together, we achieve extraordinary results.
