Join Intel-and build a better tomorrow. Intel is in the midst of an exciting transformation, with a vision to create and extend computing technology to connect and enrich the lives of every person on Earth. So join us-and help us create the next generation of technologies that will shape the future for decades to come.

Logic Technology Development (LTD), Resolution Enhancement Techniques (RET) is responsible for the research, development and implementation of RET for nanoscale process technologies. Investigates potential inventions typically 2 to 4 years prior to being applied to a product.

As a Software Research Engineer/Scientist in this team your job scope includes models and software to perform layout correction for high resolution reproduction on wafers. Applies software engineering methods, theories and research in the investigation and solution of technical RET problems.

In this job responsibilities will include but will not be limited to:

• Defines and selects new approaches and implementation of RET software engineering applications, design specifications and parameters.

• Maintains substantial knowledge of state of the art principles and theories in lithography, optics, resists, modeling, and software engineering.

• Contributes to scientific literature, conferences, and the development of intellectual property.

• Coordinates interdepartmental activities and research efforts.

• Interact with both Very large-scale integration (VLSI) design and silicon process technology development, and mask making communities to ensure solutions are optimal.

Additionally, can use predictive modeling, statistics, machine learning, data mining, and other data analysis techniques to collect, explore, visualize, and to develop software algorithms and applications to compensate for empirical effects in photolithography imaging and etch pattern transferal process.

An ideal candidate should be willing to exhibit the below behavioral traits:

• Problem-solving, data mining and analytics.

• Attentiveness to detail.

• Effectively communicate, collaborate and align with team members and customers.

What we offer: 

• We give you opportunities to transform technology and create a better future, by delivering products that touch the lives of every person on earth.
