Neuranics seeks an experienced Sensor Fabrication Engineer with cleanroom experience to join the current sensor team for pico-Tesla field detectivity. The candidate will design, fabricate and characterise Magnetic tunnel Junction/ Tunneling magnetoresistance for pico-Tesla field detectivity with the sensor engineers and technicians.
The candidate should have a strong physics background in spintronics, and the ideal candidate is recommended to have a strong understanding of magnetic material, particularly for spintronic devices. The engineer will work on 200 or 300-mm wafer technology and achieve high yield using optimised processes.
The candidate will primarily work on sensor design and fabrication, and the Neuranics team will aid in the experiment setup and measurements.
Responsibilities
- Design and optimise material stack and device layout to develop a range of TMR sensors for different applications, including low-noise or high-density sensors.
- Analyse experimental results such as field noise or TMR to drive process development and debug any issues during nanofabrication.
- Experiment with varied cleanroom processes to achieve sensor design specifications.
- Simulate sensor stacks using varied multiphysics or other sensor dynamics modelling tools such as MuMax, COMSOL, etc.
- Collaborate with the ASIC design team to design TMR sensors ready to be integrated with CMOS substrates.
- The job requires working in Europe with collaborating state-of-the-art facilities.
- Depending on contracts with respective nanofabrication facilities, a candidate may be required to fabricate the sensors with the Neuranics team. If required, Neuranics will pay any legal or visa fees to visit the fabrication facility.
- Create new magnetic sensor IP and lead pathfinding and research efforts with partners.
- Interface with customers on their requirements.
Skills/Qualifications
Required
- Over 5 years of experience working on fabricating and characterising spintronic sensors in academia or industry with.
- The candidate must have a master’s or PhD in the relevant field to demonstrate relevant background knowledge in Magnetics.
Desirable
- Have an Excellent understanding of MTJ materials and device physics
- Must be comfortable using wide-array nanofabrication tools where facilities may have different tool manufacturers.
- Understand the origin of 1/f and broadband noise sources within MTJ structures and knowledge of known solutions to reduce noise.
- Have an understanding of magnetic materials and the method of characterising them.
- Ability to convert characterisation data to simulation inputs.
- Know how to use multiphysics or other sensor dynamics modelling tools such as MuMax COMSOL.
- Demonstrate proficiency in using AutoCAD or any other mask designer to create DXF or GDS format.
- Ability to work well in global cross-functional teams.
