Computational Software Development Engineer

## The group you'll be a part of

Within Semiverse Solutions at Lam Research, we build innovative software products to solve the semiconductor industry's toughest technology challenges. Our leading 3D modeling software is revolutionizing the way semiconductor chips are fabricated around the world. Enabled by our core intellectual property - an accelerated 3D voxel modeling and visualization engine - our software is highly successful and is quickly evolving as our business and customer base expand rapidly.

## The impact you'll make

As a key member of our computational software development team, you will design and implement algorithms for simulating the physical phenomena that play a crucial role in the fabrication of cutting-edge nanoscale semiconductor devices. Your work will have a direct impact on how our partners and customers design and create highly complex 3D structures for today's semiconductor devices. This is a hands-on software engineering position requiring expertise in numerical methods, physical modeling, and proficiency in C++.

## What you'll do

* Explore new approaches to model phenomena in semiconductor fabrication.

* Design efficient algorithms to simulate those physical phenomena.

* Implement the algorithms using advanced data structures such as octrees for scalability.

* Optimize those algorithms for speed and robustness through profiling and parallelization.

* Produce high-quality software that is well documented, tested, and maintainable.

* Collaborate with our applications team to understand and troubleshoot customer needs

## Who we're looking for

* PhD or MS in engineering, mathematics, physics, or computer science related to 3D modeling, simulation, scientific computing, or semiconductors

* Direct experience with the software implementation of 3D physical simulation algorithms, such as particle trajectory-based methods, the finite element method or the finite volume method.

* Broad background in physical modeling, numerical methods, and scientific computing

* Strong background in modern C++ programming, software engineering and building simulation code from scratch.

* Strong fundamental math skills, including linear algebra, calculus, and geometry

* Team player who thrives in a collaborative environment

* Excellent communication skills in English, ability to clearly communicate complex technical concepts

* This position is in Waltham, MA and you are expected to work at least 3 days a week from the office.
