Who We Are (video)

At JRC, we tackle some of the toughest challenges faced by the Department of Defense (DoD) and other government agencies. Our expertise in engineering innovation and semiconductor technologies allows us to deliver mission-critical microelectronics solutions, aerospace systems engineering, and cutting-edge research and development. By joining JRC, you’ll be part of a team that supports strategic deterrence and defense missions, playing a crucial role in ensuring the safety and security of the United States and its allies.

🚀Join JRC's Semiconductor Technology Team!

We are seeking a technically commanding Senior Manager of Semiconductor Technologies to manage our core development efforts in radiation-hardened microelectronics. Reporting directly to the Vice President of Semiconductor Technologies, this role oversees the strategic direction and technical execution of our next-generation LEAP Standard Cell Library and leads the development of proprietary simulation software for predicting reliability and radiation-induced error rates.

💼What You'll Do

  • Mentor, manage, and grow a high-performing multidisciplinary team of device physicists, circuit designers, and software engineers.
  • Serve as the subject matter expert on Semiconductor Device Physics for radiation effects, including TID, SEE, and SEU.
  • Define the technical strategy and roadmap for Radiation Hardened LEAP Standard Cell Libraries across multiple advanced foundry technology nodes.
  • Interface regularly with government and DoW customers, DIB customers and strategic partners, and attend relevant conferences. Contribute to BD pipeline assessments and capture tracking. Provide hands-on assistance with technical content of capture proposals and work seamlessly with the contracts and proposal execution teams.
  • Direct the development and enhancement of proprietary software tools used for analyzing circuit reliability and radiation-induced error rates.
  • Oversee advanced library characterization and simulations to optimize Power, Performance, and Area (PPA) in harsh environments.
  • Manage relationships with external foundry partners to influence Multi-Product Wafer (MPW) execution and interface directly with customers to ensure technical quality control.

🧠What You Bring

  • Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, or a related field with 2+ years of direct industry experience, OR a Master’s degree with 6+ years of direct industry experience, OR a Bachelor’s degree with 8+ years of experience.
  • Must be eligible to obtain a U.S. security clearance due to the nature of defense-related projects.
  • Deep foundational knowledge of semiconductor device physics and semiconductor design methodologies and principles.
  • Hands-on experience with standard cell design, circuit design, and layout, and associated design tools (e.g. Virtuoso, Spectre, HSPICE)
  • Demonstrated experience being involved in test-chip designs and MPW execution.
  • Proficiency in design flows including DRC/LVS, timing analysis, and power integrity.
  • Extensive experience with semiconductor device & design simulation tools, specifically for library characterization.
  • Demonstrated track record of managing or leading engineers for a minimum of 5 years.
  • Demonstrated end-to-end track record of steering execution of complex technical projects from initial concept/feasibility phase through completion.
  • Outstanding communication and presentation skills

⭐Bonus Points

 

  • Ph.D. with 5+ years, Master’s with 9+ years, or Bachelor’s with 10+ years of direct industry experience.
  • Proven leadership running and scaling high‑performing multidisciplinary engineering teams while owning technical strategy and roadmaps.
  • Demonstrated success shaping government‑focused proposals/contracts and contributing to BD pipelines and strategic captures.
  • Direct RHBD experience mitigating SEU/SEE, plus proficiency in C++, Python, and TCL for advanced simulation and automation.
  • Hands‑on work with advanced FinFET and GAA nodes (e.g., Intel 18A) and a strong ability to rapidly learn new physics and technology platforms.

 

At JRC we offer...

  • A competitive compensation package
  • An exceptional employee benefits program, providing support for our team members' well-being and success
  • The chance to contribute to a high-profile Department of Defense programs and make a positive impact
  • A collaborative work environment where teamwork, creativity, and innovation thrive
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development, helping you advance your career
