Modeling Technical Lead Engineer

This position will be based out of Bangalore in LIGHT (Lam India Global Hardware Team) modelling group closely working with Local and Global Product Groups. This individual would be responsible for simulating complex multi physics problems to aid product or process development by working closely with engineering teams in the US, Europe and Asia region. We are looking for a talented self-motivated individual who will have following primary job responsibilities: Conceptualize and build atomistic or phenomenological models to study transport of multispecies gas and/or liquid media in confined channels Wherever applicable, implement the chemical reaction kinetics along with transport to simulate etch, dep or clean processes relevant for semiconductor industry Wherever applicable, collaborate with other modelling engineers working on continuum-based methods for seamless transfer of boundary conditions to atomistic models Collaborate effectively with engineers from various Business Units to translate their problem statements into a modelling scope followed by execution and efficient delivery of results Report out the outcomes of modelling studies in the form of a document to Product Development teams Establish new modelling protocols and publish them as Best Known Methods Strong expertise in molecular modeling, specifically molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo based approaches Strong hold on languages (for e.g. python) for post-processing of results involving large data sets Knowledge of developing new or implementing existing ML-based forcefields to account for new interatomic interactions and chemistries (using reactive force fields) Knowledge of AI/ML based approaches to accelerate MD simulations for probing larger length and time scales Engineering judgment and creativity to solve complex problems with right trade-off between accuracy and time-to-delivery. Good communication and documentation skills for effective project delivery with global teams High learning agility to quickly pick up product knowledge, domain knowledge and software tool expertise to model high fidelity multi physics complex models Strong interpersonal skills to build effective relationships with local and global stakeholders to be successful in a matrix organization Proficiency in using softwares like LAMMPS, Quantum Espresso, Jaguar, Gaussian, Amber, etc. Know-how of Density Functional Theory calculations to complement the MD skill set Experience with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling tools like Fluent/Star CCM+ would be a plus Knowledge of semiconductor wafer processing equipment and plasma physics will be added advantage Strong organizational skills and demonstrated ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously and ability to react to shifting priorities to meet business needs and deadlines Professional presentation skills & oral/written communication skills in English PhD with 1-2 years of industrial experience or Masters with 3-5 years of industrial experiencee.
