The Role: 

As the semiconductor technologies advance, the roles of new materials are becoming crucial in the technology development. We intend to establish the atomistic modeling and simulation capability (especially the molecular dynamics) to help us: 

• Understand the chemical reactions and material properties under nano scale, which is becoming more and more challenging and expensive to achieve with conventional approaches. 

• Design, evaluate and screen new materials or chemical formulations applied in diversified semiconductor processes expeditiously to shorten the overall new product development cycle time. 

In this role you will: 

• Work with different RD staffs, technologists, FAE etc. within Entegris or external customers/users to define problems and translate them into practical modeling and simulation projects. 

• Establish atomistic models and simulations (molecular dynamics, DFT, etc.) efficiently combining different tools. 

• Calculate and conclude important parameters or properties of a material system based on problem statements to help project stakeholders gain new insights with which they can expedite the technology/product development processes. 

• 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: 

• Good communication skills in both Mandarin and English 

• A team player able to work with different stakeholders in diversified task forces. 

• Basic understanding of semiconductor processes 

• Academic backgrounds or experiences in atomistic modeling and simulation (especially in molecular dynamics) in chemical systems, material design or related areas. 

• Proficiency in establishing atomistic models and simulations with commercial software or open-source software effectively and efficiently. 

• Programming with Python, C++, Perl, MySQL etc. to extract, re-organize and calculate raw data from derivative databases. 

• Ability to do research independently to identify best atomistic modeling and simulation approaches for targeted problems. 

Your success will be measured by: 

• Ability to work with stakeholders in diversified task forces smoothly. 

• Ability to probe stakeholders’ needs and convert them into practical atomistic modeling and simulation projects. 

• Discipline to deliver high quality modeling and simulation results in a timely manner. 

• Dedication to improving modeling and simulation results continually by polishing the models/calibrating the directions based on stakeholders’ feedbacks and needs. 

• A growth mindset to accept coaching and learn new knowledge to improve and grow himself/herself continually. 

• Creativity to explore new modeling and simulation approaches to attack difficult problems. 

• Innovative ideas to expand the applications of atomistic modeling and simulations in the corporate.
