As a member of the TCAD group, you will design, implement, evaluate and improve the latest parallel algorithms for the solution of large non-linear hyperbolic PDE system, including their discretization and linearization, as well as the solution of the related linear systems, and provide recommendations and support to internal engineering teams. The successful candidate will have expert software engineering skills and expertise in implementing mathematical methods and algorithms.

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

  • Identify and implement new numerical solvers and techniques
  • Identify potentials for improvements in in the existing solution techniques
  • Provide accurate and effective written documentation
  • Communicate complex ideas and testing results effectively, both orally and in writing

Qualifications

QUALIFICATIONS AND REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

  • MSc (with relevant experience) or in Computational Science, Mathematics, Computer Science or Engineering
  • Strong proficiency in C / C++, software design
  • Experience with parallel programming, especially pthreads, OpenMP, and MPI.
  • Experience with Linux and Windows operating systems.
  • Strong mathematical fundamentals, including linear algebra and numerical methods
  • Experience in discretizing and solving hyperbolic PDE systems and with linear solvers to support this.
  • Good understanding of mathematical properties and limitations of techniques like TR, BDF, Runge Kutta and related time discretization techniques.
  • Good understanding of mathematical properties and limitations of spacial discretization techniques like finite volume, finite difference, finite element especially in the context of complex meshes and very large dynamic ranges of solution variables.
  • Good communication and organization skills, with a logical approach to problem solving, good time management and task prioritization skills.
  • Experience in semiconductor industry preferred.
