Your Job:

GlobalFoundries (GF) is seeking a Senior Member Technical Staff (SMTS) Compact Modeling Manager to lead a team delivering best-in-class transistor compact models into Process Design Kits (PDKs) across multiple technology platforms. This role requires a hands-on technical leader with deep device-physics intuition and proven people skillssomeone who can set modeling strategy mentor engineers and partner effectively across worldwide teams and stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and grow a high-performing compact modeling team (MTS/Principal Sr.EngineersandStudents): hiring onboarding coaching performance management and career development; foster an inclusive collaborative culture withstrong communicationand ownership.

• Own end-to-end model delivery for digital/analog/RF device portfolios: define scope plan milestones prioritize work and ensure high-quality releases that enable customer design success.

• Provide technical vision and guidance in extraction and validation of industry-standard model families (e.g. BSIM/PSP and SOI variants) including behaviors across DC/low frequency RF/high frequency noise and mismatch.

• Drive model QA/validation and circuit benchmarking best practices: data selection rigor parameter extractionmethodology sanity checks correlation documentation and release readiness reviews.

• Partner cross-functionally with characterization/test labs PDK device engineering process integration design manual and layout/test-chip design to define needed test structures resolve discrepancies and close gaps in data/model alignment.

• Guide or review test-structure definition and layout strategy correlating device intent with layout implementation arrays and measurement plans.

• Champion automation and efficiency improvements in model generation andanalysisworkflows (e.g. scripting for extraction/QA standardized flows reusable tooling).

• Act as a senior technical interface for customer support and escalations: explain model behavior vs. silicon trends help debug issues and communicate clearly with internal and external stakeholders.

Required Qualifications

• Education: M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering Physics or a related field with strong semiconductor device focus.

• Experience:Demonstrated progressive experience in compact model development and validation including technical leadership responsibilities (M.S. 10 years or Ph.D. 58 years);priorteam-lead responsibilityorpeople-managementhighly desired

• Deep understanding of device physics and modeling (e.g. MOSFET/diode/varactor as applicable) including noise and mismatch fundamentals.

• Practical experience with model extraction and data analytics;proficiencyin Python/Perl (or similar) for parameter extraction QA and workflow automation.

• Working knowledge of RF concepts (e.g. S-parameters) and their use in model extraction/validation (role-dependent).

• Excellent written and verbal communication; ability to collaborate across geographies and influence without authority.

• Work Location Requirement:Bangalore(on-site) regular on-site presence is.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Cadence ADE simulations and/or Verilog-A model development and debugging.
