Compensation
Hourly Rate in USD
$53—$57 USD
Responsibilities
Build a flexible framework that links package design parameters to outputs such as thermal performance and warpage.
Develop and evaluate PINNs, other surrogate models, and reduced-order or analytical models for fast first-order predictions on new package concepts.
Automate FEA and CFD setup, execution, and post-processing in Python to generate parametric datasets. Train and validate models against high-fidelity simulation and hardware data, quantifying accuracy and uncertainty.
Plan and run physical DOEs (test setup, measurement, analysis) to build understanding of coupled thermal-structural-optical physics.
Partner with packaging, thermal, and thermo-mechanical engineers to define requirements and inputs/outputs, and adapt the framework to upcoming products.
