Attention

If you’re into advanced simulation and want to see your work influence next-gen semiconductors, this could be your next move. You’ll join an R&D team where your modelling skills are core to solving real-world thermal challenges in IC design.

Interest

In this role, you’ll:

  • Run thermal and thermo-mechanical simulations using commercial and in-house tools.
  • Identify design risks and drive performance through electro-thermal, stress and multi-physics modelling.
  • Optimise workflows and boost accuracy by refining numerical methods and improving internal tools.
  • Collaborate across engineering teams to embed your modelling insights into real design decisions.

Desire

You’ll work on technically complex problems; like novel heatsink designs and microchannel cooling, and use tools like Python, C++ and mainstream FEA/CFD software.

It’s an opportunity to:

  • Drive simulation strategies that directly impact reliability and performance.
  • Use AI/ML techniques (if that’s your thing) to enhance modelling workflows.
  • Work with a global technology company that invests heavily in innovation.

Who we’re looking for

  • PhD (0-2 yrs) or MSc (3-5 yrs) in EE, ME, Physics or similar.
  • Strong understanding of thermodynamics, materials, and stress analysis.
  • Experience with thermal-mechanical coupling, CFD, and FEA tools.
  • Semiconductor background preferred.
  • Bonus points for AI/ML experience in simulation.
