3D DRAM device characterization Engineer

As a 3D DRAM device characterization Engineer you will be working on electrical characterization of MOSFETs and DRAMs.

What you will do

Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) is a volatile memory used for temporary storage and quick access of the data being actively used or processed by the processor. With scaling of the DRAM for higher density, the cost per bit is saturating due to increasing processing complexity. For high density and cost effectiveness, the possibility of 3D integration of the DRAM device is being investigated. 

Imec is looking for a characterization Engineer with experience in transistor and DRAM characterization. The role consists of electrical characterization correlating to the process. Understanding of device operations and physics will be essential. The learning drives subsequent material/process/device innovations, targeting device performance optimization.

What we do for you

We offer you the opportunity to join one of the world’s premier research centers in nanotechnology at its headquarters in Leuven, Belgium. With your talent, passion and expertise, you’ll become part of a team that makes the impossible possible. Together, we shape the technology that will determine the society of tomorrow.

We are committed to being an inclusive employer and proud of our open, multicultural, and informal working environment with ample possibilities to take initiative and show responsibility. We commit to supporting and guiding you in this process; not only with words but also with tangible actions. Through imec.academy, 'our corporate university', we actively invest in your development to further your technical and personal growth. 

We are aware that your valuable contribution makes imec a top player in its field. Your energy and commitment are therefore appreciated by means of a market appropriate salary with many fringe benefits. 

Who you are

• You have a PhD degree (or a Master degree with at least 3 year of working experience, preferably in the field of memory devices) in Electrical Engineering or Nanotechnology, material science or Physics 
• You have a solid background in electrical engineering. Good knowledge of device physics, technology and lab/fab process is essential. 
• You have strong experience in the electrical characterization of MOSFETs and DRAMs.  
• You are a communicative team player, yet you are able to work independently. 
• You like taking initiative; you are persuasive and assertive, while keeping a constructive attitude. 
• You show the flexibility to change between different projects according to changing priorities. 
• Given the international character of imec, a fluent knowledge of English is necessary.
