Develop and apply PIC and MHD simulations of MagLIF, Z-pinch and HEDP experiments to model fusion physics from the pulsed-power driver to the imploding load to the fusion burn.
Responsibilities
Run and analyze hybrid, PIC and MHD simulations of MagLIF, liner, wire-array and Z-pinch implosions, and of the HEDP conditions they produce.
Develop, extend and optimize simulation codes to improve physical fidelity, numerical accuracy and computational efficiency.
Translate simulation output into physical insight that guides real decisions: implosion dynamics, instability growth, magnetic flux compression, preheat and fusion yield.
Partner with experimentalists to design campaigns and interpret results, closing the loop between simulation and measurement.
Model the full chain where relevant, from pulsed-power driver through load to burn, with the driver and target teams.
Requirements
Ph.D. in Physics, Plasma Physics, Computational Science or a related field.
The Systems Engineer II, Plasma is responsible for the development, characterization, integration, and deployment of plasma-based sensing, diagnostics, and process control technologies across ASM semiconductor manufacturing equipment. This role focuses on understanding plasma behavior, developing diagnostic methodologies, and leveraging process and equipment data to improve process performance, reliability, and product outcomes.
Responsibilities
Support development and characterization of plasma-based processes and subsystems across ASM product platforms.
Evaluate plasma behavior, plasma-surface interactions, and process performance under varying operating conditions.
Develop and execute experiments to improve plasma stability, uniformity, repeatability, and process capability.
Support plasma system integration and qualification activities for new products and technology upgrades.
Participate in requirements definition, test planning, and technology validation activities.
Drives innovative products and applications through customer qualification, adoption, and HVM ramp. The role combines deep technical expertise, customer technology leadership, operational discipline, and organizational development.
Compensation
