Role - Ai Hardware Design Engineer
Location - Santa Clara CA
***NOTE: Experience for SciML R&D and exposure in Neural operators, PINNs etc. is required***
We are seeking an Ai Hardware Design Engineer to join our team and drive innovation in AI-powered solutions. This role involves designing, developing, and optimizing generative AI models and workflows for applications such as content creation, product design, and intelligent automation.
• Develop forward surrogate models for CVD/ALD/etch chambers mapping
geometry, gas chemistry, flow, temperature, and power to film-uniformity, step-coverage, particle behavior, and thermal outcomes.
• Implement inverse-design workflows where target performance specifications
generate feasible chamber geometries, showerhead/baffle designs, and process conditions via generative or adjoint/topology-optimization methods.
• Build bi-directional models that infer optimal process parameters for a
given geometry and recommend geometry modifications when process latitude is insufficient.
• Create high-fidelity digital twins combining physics-based solvers (CFD,
plasma, heat transfer) with learned surrogate components for rapid design-space exploration.
• Platform & MLOps Infrastructure: Implement and maintain robust,
containerized MLOps systems (Docker, Kubernetes) in HPC environments to deploy models efficiently.
• Develop robust multi-objective optimization and uncertainty-quantification
workflows to ensure AI-generated designs are manufacturable, robust to variation, and compatible with downstream yield requirements.
• Collaborate with physicists, domain experts, and software engineers to
validate that AI models comply with fundamental scientific laws.
•
Required Skills & Qualifications
• Education: Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Computational/Electrical
Engineering, AI/ML, or related field.
• Technical Expertise:
o Strong proficiency in Python and ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow).
o Experience with generative AI (LLMs, diffusion models, graph-based
models).
o Knowledge of computational materials methods (DFT, MD, phase-field
modeling).
• Additional Skills:
o Familiarity with MLOps, HPC environments, and cloud deployment.
o Proven experience (code repos, publications) bridging simulation software,
hardware design, and ML.
