Software Computational Engineer 3

In the Global Products Group, we are dedicated to excellence in the design and engineering of Lam's etch and deposition products. We drive innovation to ensure our cutting-edge solutions are helping to solve the biggest challenges in the semiconductor industry.

The Software Computational Engineer applies the following towards solving semiconductor fabrication hardware and process discovery, design, and optimization challenges:

1) Understanding of the fundamental physical, chemical, electromagnetic phenomenon and their interactions at the atomic to chamber scales

2) Development of mathematical models governing the fluid flow, gas-phase and surface chemical reactions, electromagnetic effects, and numerous processes driving semiconductor plasma etch and deposition processes
3) Computational algorithms, applied mathematics, and numerical methods applied to solving systems of linear and partial-differential equations arising from the aforementioned models

Software development skills including one or more programming languages such as C++, Python, Matlab, etc. and experience building large-scale, high-performance, and scalable software for CPU and GPGPU computing.
