Sr. Principal Engineer, Systems (Plasma & Multi-Scale Simulation Scientist)

ASM International N.V.

About this role

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Plasma & Multi-Scale Simulation Scientist to strengthen and expand plasma modeling capabilities within the Simulation and Modeling Hub. This role bridges plasma physics, surface chemistry, and feature-scale behavior to enable predictive, physics-based simulation workflows supporting advanced semiconductor process development.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and apply plasma simulation models (fluid and hybrid CCP/ICP)
  • Bridge multiple scales including plasma–surface interactions, molecular/first-principles insights, and feature-scale behavior
  • Integrate plasma modeling with CFD, thermal, and multi-physics simulations
  • Collaborate with experimental teams to validate models using in-situ and ex-situ diagnostics
  • Translate modeling insights into actionable process and equipment guidance
  • Contribute to S&M-Hub roadmap development, best practices, and advanced modeling workflows

What We're Looking For

  • Ph.D. in Applied Physics, Plasma Physics, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, or related field
  • Strong background in plasma-assisted semiconductor processes
  • Demonstrated experience in computational plasma modeling
  • Ability to connect fundamental modeling with experimental validation and manufacturing relevance

Nice to Have

  • Experience with first-principles, molecular dynamics, or surface reaction modeling
  • Exposure to feature-scale or device-relevant plasma simulations
  • Familiarity with multi-physics coupling and reduced-order or hybrid modeling approaches
  • Experience in industrial R&D or advanced technology development environments
