Develop and apply advanced multiphysics simulation methodologies for next-generation semiconductor equipment and processes

Provide technical leadership for a future Simulation Competence Cente r

Perform and coordinate simulations in areas such as

Structural mechanics / Material behaviour

Dynamics and vibration / Motion systems

Heat transfer and thermal management

Coupled multiphysics problems

Build simulation workflows that combine results across different domains and tools

Support concept development, architecture decisions and root-cause investigations through simulation-driven insights

Collaborate closely with Mechanical Design, Motion Engineering, Software, Process Development, Vision, Product Specialists and System Engineering teams

Leverage and coordinate external simulation specialists, universities and technology partners

Establish modelling standards, best practices and simulation governance across projects

Mentor engineers and contribute to raising simulation competence across the organisation

Coordinate and administrate Simulation Tools and Team

Your capacity for excellence

Master's degree or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Engineering Physics, Applied Mathematics, Semiconductor Engineering or a related technical discipline.

Several years of experience in advanced engineering simulation, system modelling and simulation-driven product development.

Strong expertise in Finite Element Analysis (FEA/FEM), multiphysics simulation and system-level modelling of complex technical products.

Experience with industry-standard simulation tools such as Ansys, Abaqus, COMSOL, Matlab/Simulink or comparable environments.

Knowledge of digital twin approaches, model validation and simulation-based optimization is considered a strong advantage.

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills combined with a systems-thinking mindset.

Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate across disciplines and influence technical decisions through data-driven insights.
