We're looking to hire a highly motivated mechanical engineer to join Advanced Packaging Mechanical Analysis team located in Chandler AZ. This role is focused on developing Multiphysics thermo-mechanical simulations to support design, definition, development and qualifications of advanced semiconductor packaging led by Intel Foundry. This position offers the opportunity to work at the forefront of semiconductor packaging innovation, collaborating with engineers and researchers across multiple business groups such as design, technology integration, reliability, yield and manufacturing.
Job Description:
Develop and validate finite element analysis (FEA) models to simulate thermal and mechanical behavior of advanced semiconductor packages. Perform simulations to evaluate stress, strain, warpage, delamination, thermal cycling, and reliability risks across a wide range of package architectures.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define simulation requirements, interpret results, and provide actionable design and process recommendations. Design and coordinate lab tests and research on basic materials and properties to understand material behavior and reliability failure mechanisms.
The ideal candidate will have to drive strategic development activities and work closely with internal and external customer organizations to plan, execute and communicate development activities and programs.
The team leverages both experimental and numerical methods across a broad range of areas, including thermal, mechanical, and fluids.
The team typically uses a combination of simulations and experiments, as needed, to help solve practical engineering problems.
The team frequently leverages advanced analysis methods (statistical, AI/ML) to supplement modeling and experimental approaches.
Note: This role requires regular onsite presence to fulfill essential job responsibilities. Provides tactical and strategic operational support to ensure the successful development and ramp of a high volume or technology development fabrication facility.
The ideal candidate should exhibit the following skills or behavioral traits:
Demonstrated ability to work seamlessly between experiments and simulations.
You must possess the below minimum qualifications to be initially considered for this position. Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates. Requirements listed would be obtained through a combination of industry relevant job experience, internship experiences and or schoolwork/classes/research.
