Research Electrical Engineer III - Semiconductor Device Physics

SRI International • Princeton, NJ • 5h ago

Overview

SRI International has an immediate opening in our Princeton, NJ campus for a Research Electrical Engineer in Semiconductor Device Physics . You will leverage deep knowledge of CMOS physics and digital microsystem operation to understand and probe microsystem security. You will work with a small, dedicated research team on existing programs, with the long term goal of cultivating your own programs and research directions.

Ideal capabilites:

a strong background in low level device physics as well as an understanding of how these devices integrate and operate at a system level.

a developed understanding of CMOS physics through hands-on microfabrication and test experience.

Our work aims to leverage this deep understanding into inventing new technologies and techniques, developing proto@types, and constructing fieldable systems. Activities will be very hands-on, operating over a variety of projects related to national security.

SRI's Advanced Technology and Systems Division conducts innovative research and development in a wide range of disciplines, from hardware security and mixed-signal integrated circuits to novel nanoscale optoelectronic devices and quantum sensing. Candidates will have the opportunity to work on programs outside of the hardware security focus area and contribute to innovations at all levels of the development process. This position will be on-site.

Responsibilities

Conduct basic and applied research in CMOS devices, electronic circuits and systems, and hardware security.

Design, set up, and perform laboratory analysis of electronic devices and systems.

Seek, develop, and champion new research opportunities. Write and win proposals as a member of our team to actively seek funding from various government and commercial agencies.

Make technical presentations to external clients, academic, government, and industry audiences and to internal staff.

Qualifications

PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field. Recent graduates are welcome to apply, while industry experience is also a plus.

Due to government requirements, U.S. Citizenship and ability to obtain a Security Clearance required.

Solid technical knowledge in electronic device physics and mixed-signal electronic circuits and systems.

Experience in a microfabrication environment. Hands-on experience on a range of deposition, etch, lithography, and characterization tools.

Preferred Qualifications:

Familiarity with physical measurements and laboratory instrumentation.

A "hacker" mentality to anticipate and defend against hardware security threats.

Programming experience for analysis, simulation, and instrumentation, e.g. with MATLAB, C++, Python, LabVIEW.

Experience using design tools like SPICE and wafer layout tools.

Active DoD security clearance.

The salary range is: $104,139-$154,903. Salary ranges will vary and are based on several factors, including geographic location, market competitiveness and equity amongst internal employees in similar roles. Positions may also qualify for SRI's Pay for Outstanding Performance program or the annual Performance Based Compensation program. SRI also has a competitive benefits package, to view details please go to https://www.sri.com/resources/benefits/. SRI will accept applications until the position is filled.
