Senior Scientist, Modeling & Simulation

Job Title:

Senior Scientist, Modeling & Simulation

Job Description:

The Role: As the semiconductor technologies advance, the roles of new materials are becoming crucial in technology development. We intend to establish atomistic/molecular/data modeling and simulation capabilities to help us:

• Understand the chemical reactions and material properties under nano scale, which is becoming increasingly challenging and expensive to achieve with conventional approaches.
• Design, evaluate, screen and synthesize new materials or chemical formulations applied in diversified semiconductor processes expeditiously to shorten the overall new product/new technology development cycle time.
• Extract new insights and strengthen domain knowledge.

In this role you will:

• Define problems and translate them into practical modeling and simulation projects collaborating with different RD staffs, technologists, FAE etc. within Entegris or external customers/users.
• Establish/Develop atomistic modeling and simulation solutions (DFT, DFTB, Molecular Dynamics etc.) or data modeling solutions efficiently combining different tools to help project stakeholders gain new insights and accelerate new product or new technology development processes.
• Generate DFT training sets to fine-tune the Machine Learning Interatomic Potential (MLIP) for Molecular Dynamics modeling & simulation.
• Support the evaluation and introduction of new AI-based tools for material development.
• Internalize and standardize derivative IPs (backgrounds & scenarios, models, parameters, codes, procedures, formula, calculations, etc.) of every project systematically to facilitate the re-use of such outcomes in other similar systems efficiently when necessary.

Traits we believe make a strong candidate:
