Position @ University of the Basque Country, Spain Research associate on SoC design for critical systems Context
The Chair SoC4sensing on Semiconductor Design of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) offers one Research Contract (PhD or MsC) focused on System-on-Chip design for Critical Sectors. The duration of this contract is three years. SoC4sensing Chair is funded by private sector companies like soc-e.com and Ikerlan Coop. and by the Spanish Government. It is supported by 17 researchers from two research groups, APERT and GDED from UPV/EHU.
Research Topic
The main objective of this Research Contract is the management of the projects developed in SoC4sensing focused on obtaining pre-industrialized SoC semiconductor devices for critical systems.
The European critical sector industries, like Energy, Transportation, and A&D, demand new SoC devices focused on their markets. These SoCs shall include preferably EU technology to increase European sovereignty in the semiconductors market.
The specific tasks scheduled for this position are:
Technical management of the on-going projects.
Supervision of the Front-end and Back-end design.
Management of the Tapeout fabrication in cooperation with other research centers (e.g.: IMEC) and fabs.
SoC4sensing staff supervision and support.
Representation of SoC4sensing in collaboration with the Chair Director to the Industry, University and Government.
Mandatory Requirements
Master's degree (or equivalent) in engineering, electronics, electrical engineering, physics, or computer science.
Additional Requirements
PhD degree (or equivalent) in engineering, electronics, electrical engineering, physics or computer science.
Strong interest for research and development of new semiconductor devices.
Skillful in software/hardware engineering, optimally prior experience in FPGA developments, etc.
Experience on team management, business development and semiconductor sector.
Experience with EDA Tools use and installation (Linux)
Excellent working conditions where people feel safe and can make meaningful connections with one another in attractive research environment.
Flexible work model and a range of various training opportunities for personal growth.
Expression of Interest
Applicants, please contact Prof. Armando Astarloa via email (******) and [PhD-SOC4SENSING-PIC1] as the subject of the email) by sending your CV (including prior knowledge, skills, and publications, if any).
Candidates will be contacted for an interview and additional information for finalizing the application.
The contract will start 2024/11/01 approximately.
