JOB SUMMARY

Silvaco is looking for a software engineer to join our process simulation team in one of the company's offices in Europe. Working at the very center of the TCAD group, you would be working on stress-related aspects (mechanical stress as well as viscous stress and its effects). You will work on developing solutions requiring solving non-linear mechanical equations as well as Navier-Stokes type equations and on coupling both types of problems. This includes efficient discretization and linearization of the non-linear equation system as well as developing efficient numerical solution techniques.

As a Stress Software Developer, you will help Silvaco develop and deliver high quality products and services.

As a member of the TCAD group, you will design, implement, evaluate, and improve numerical methods, physical models and simulation methodologies. The successful candidate will be an experienced software engineer with expertise in developing simulation solutions for mechanical and / or viscous stress effects, whereby software development experience is at least as good as the knowledge of using software packages for simulating these kinds of problems. Since solving stress simulation problems often goes along with challenges in creating good simulation meshes, experience in that area or at least understanding its relevance and impact will be very beneficial. As an integral member of a team of highly trained and experienced engineers, the successful candidate must also be able to :

ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES; include but not limited to :

• Develop, support, test, and maintain existing simulation software.
• Identify and understand limitations of existing software components.
• Improve and develop simulation methodologies.
• Develop and provide software solutions for physical models.
• Understand and improve numerical schemes relevant for stress simulation problems.
• Rely on experience and judgment to plan and accomplish goals.
• Communicate complex ideas and testing results effectively; both orally and written
• Must be able to work independently and solve the problems on his / her own initiative.
• Provide accurate and effective written documentation.
• Good communication and organization skills, with a logical approach to problem solving, good time management, and task prioritization skills.
