Semiconductor Device Modeling Engineer (Mid-Level, Consultant or Lead)Company: The Boeing CompanyJob ID: 00000407301Date Posted: 2024-04-15Location: USA - Tukwila, WAJob Description Qualifications:Boeing is seeking a Semiconductor Device Modeling Engineer (Mid-Level, Consultant or Lead) to join our team in Tukwila, Washington.We are Boeing Research & Technology (BR&T): Boeing's global research and development team creating and implementing innovative technologies that make the impossible possible and enabling the future of aerospace. We are engineers and technicians, skilled scientists and bold innovators; Join us and put your passion, determination, and skill to work building the future! #TheFutureIsBuiltHere #ChangeTheWorldWithin BR&T, Boeing’s Solid State Electronics Development organization (SSED) performs microelectronics technology development and design for aerospace systems. We develop digital, analog, and RF Systems on Chip (SoCs) for radar, navigation, electronic warfare, communications, processing, and other electronic systems. These systems are used on Boeing airborne, terrestrial, and satellite platforms. Designs are implemented with state of the art semiconductor process technologies including CMOS, GaAs, GaN, and SiGe. SSED uses external wafer fabrication but performs design (architecture, RTL, synthesis, circuits, physical design, verification), packaging, and test in house. SSED has numerous microelectronics projects, funded both by internal Boeing customers and external Government Science and Technology (S&T) customers, and is nationally recognized in aerospace microelectronics design communities. SSED’s large staff of microelectronics engineers conduct research, design, and test microelectronics hardware in support of these projects.SSED executes a variety of exciting, technically challenging projects, offering endless opportunities to develop depth and breadth of technical skills. We offer on-the-job learning opportunities and long-term potential for career growth into both technical leadership and/or management positions and seek curiosity, creativity, innovation, attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to understand and meet customer needs.We are seeking semiconductor device model engineers who are able to model CMOS transistor behavior in extreme environments (e.g. cryogenic, extreme heat, and high radiation) in advanced semiconductor fabrication nodes (≤32nm) for high-speed digital, analog/mixed-signal, and RF circuits.Position Responsibilities
  • Developing new compact models and adapting foundry-provided models for extreme environments based on experimental data and theoretical understanding of DC to multi-GHz AC behavior
  • Performing extracted simulations to validate simulated circuit behavior against measurement data
  • Defining test structures and measurements to provide data for model validation and calibration
This position is hybrid. This means that the selected candidate will be required to perform some work onsite at one of the listed location options. This is at the hiring team’s discretion and could potentially change in the future.This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):
  • Bachelors, Masters or Doctorate of Science degree from an accredited course of study, in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or chemistry
  • Experience with semiconductor device physics
  • Experience with CMOS processing steps
Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):
  • 5+ years of related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience
  • 10+ years of related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience
  • 3+ years of experience in the development and calibration of CMOS or bipolar transistor models (using industry standard formats such as BSIM-BULK, BSIM-CMG, BSIM-IMG, BSIM-SOI, Gummel Poon, and VBIC) for digital, mixed-signal/analog, or RF integrated circuit applications.
  • Experience with industry-standard device modeling software, such as Keysight IC-CAP and Model Builder Program (MBP) for transistor characterization and modeling.
  • Experience with foundry-provided Process Design Kits (PDKs) and SPICE simulation for device model verification
  • Experience with device-level measurements and associated test equipment, to include semiconductor parameter analyzers and probe stations
  • Experience with process variation / mismatch models
  • Experience with advanced commercial semiconductor fabrication process technologies, to include multi-gate (e.g. FinFET), silicon-on-insulator (SOI), and silicon germanium (SiGe) processes
  • Experience with design and test of electronics for extreme environments
  • Clear understanding of IC design flow from device-level modelling through library development and final chip-level design and verification.
  • Experience with scripting languages (e.g. BASH, Python) and graphical analysis software
  • Demonstrated track record as a self-motived, independent, high-performance team member
  • Excellent verbal and written communication ability
  • Active security clearance
