Overview

As a pioneer in the micromachined IC industry since 1988 with over 80 MEMS patents, Analog Devices' Micromachined Products Division (MPD) is a leading supplier of MEMS-based inertial sensors to the automotive industry for use in auto safety applications such as airbag, rollover, and stability control systems. With more than 200 million sensors shipped that meet the auto industry's demanding reliability requirements, MPD's technology is now being adopted by a growing list of consumer product OEMs. Used as motion, tilt, shock, and vibration sensors, MPD's accelerometers are transforming the way consumers use mobile phones, media players, video games, cameras, and computers.

Requirements

Basic Qualifications:

MS in electrical/mechanical/chemical engineering or material science

5+ years of experience in MEMS modeling and characterization

Experience with Ansys, CoventorWare, Matlab/Simulink, MathCad and Labview

Additional Qualifications:

Experience focused on problem solving/root cause analysis in a development environment is preferred.

Responsibilities

The newly formed Advanced Development group in MPD's Engineering organization will conduct product feasibility studies, diagnostic chip development and analysis as well as root cause problem solving. The projects will encompass near term product feasibilities to reduce product development risks as well as long term product and process development to support strategic objectives. The MEMS Design Engineer will fulfill simulation and analysis responsibilities and will be required to characterize and validate the models or the MEMS device behavior. The characterization part of the job requires experience with wafer probe and test equipment. A strong background in statistical data analysis tools is also necessary. Finally, the individual will be required to lead small focused teams as well as cross-functional root cause problem solving teams. Strong team leadership skills are required as well as a strong technical background in IC technology with experience in MEMS manufacturing.
