The Staff Engineer will play a key role in the Device and Product Group supporting the development and introduction of state-of-the-art GaN semiconductor devices. This position requires deep expertise in discrete power electronic device design advanced TCAD simulation and layout. The role is highly cross-functional involving collaboration with R&D design epitaxy fabrication assembly test and reliability teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Device Design: Work with marketing and NPI teams to design and optimize high-voltage GaN discrete power devices to meet customer specifications considering process integration manufacturability assembly and cost targets.
- Layout: Layout of GaN discrete power electronic devices using Cadence Virtuoso or other similar layout tools.
- TCAD Simulation: Perform advanced TCAD simulations (e.g. using Sentaurus or similar tools) to guide device design simulate internal electric field profiles and intrinsic device characteristics extract chip-level parasitic resistance inductance and capacitance and simulate package level thermal and electrical parameters using multi-physics simulations.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with marketing engineering applications and manufacturing teams to develop new product designs.
- Continuous Improvement: Facilitate process improvements and fixes for reliability or yield issues and contribute to compact model development for PDK integration.
Qualifications :
- Masters degree (6 years experience) or PhD (3 years experience) in Electrical Engineering Physics Material Science or related fields required.
- Experience in semiconductor manufacturing with power electronics experience a plus.
- Strong familiarity with GaN device physics layout (eg Cadence Virtuoso) characterization and reliability.
- Proficient in TCAD simulation tools (e.g. Sentarurus) and data analysis (e.g. JMP).
- Experience with APQP design review processes FMEA NPI and SPC.
- Familiarity with JEDEC and AEC-Q101 qualification standards is a plus.
- Exceptional verbal and written communication skills.
- Self-motivated adaptable and able to work independently or in a team environment.
- Proficiency with MS Office and engineering reporting.
