About this role
About us
We see the semiconductor industry as a realm of possibility. We see opportunity. We see the profound impact that our graphene solutions will have in transforming the industry. We invite you to join us in driving change with our fundamentally human-centered approach, uniting bright minds around a shared vision. The vision is: Prove to everybody that you can make a fundamental change. Prove with your knowledge and skills how things can be done differently. Together, we can change the paradigm of how the world connects
About our technology
The semiconductor industry’s growing demand for more powerful chips with higher bandwidth and lower power finds its solution in our technology. We connect chips to high-throughput, low-delay computing networks. The key lies in harnessing the physical properties of graphene to combine electronic computing with photonic communication, allowing countless chips to interact almost as if they were one. Our graphene photonic innovation increases computing power and efficiency to a new order of magnitude
In short, we connect chips to create powerful and energy-efficient networks, overcoming connectivity limitations in the semiconductor industry. We deliver the graphene solution
The Role
We are looking for a Graphene Device Physics Modeling Expert, to develop and refine physics based models for graphene photonic devices. Working at the intersection of research and software development you will translate state-of-the-art research into reliable simulation capabilities that support device design and development.
To join our team, you should be excited to:
- Research the literature on state-of-the-art approaches to graphene device modeling and simulation
- Work with commercial TCAD and multiphysics simulation tools
- Translate physical models from scientific literature into robust, maintainable Python code
- Develop and extend models for graphene-based photonic devices, incorporating new physical effects and functionalities
- Calibrate, validate, and refine models using experimental characterization data
- Collaborate closely with various teams, prioritizing modeling activities in line with team and company goals
- Document your work clearly and contribute to shared software-development practices
Your Qualifications
- PhD in Physics, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
- Strong foundation in solid-state physics, semiconductor physics, and mathematics
- Proficient in modeling techniques and methodologies for semiconductor physics
- Proven ability to translate scientific literature and mathematical models into simulation code
- Experience with TCAD development
- Proficiency in Python and Git
- Experience solving partial differential equations, particularly for charge and heat transport
- Experience with graphene and photonics
- Experience with commercial simulation tools such as COMSOL Multiphysics or Ansys Lumerical is a plus

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Blacksemiconductor, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
