• Deep knowledge in MEMS fabrication processes and experience in working with MEMS foundries;
• Strong analog and digital laboratory bench skills. Ability to debug and characterize analog and digital devices using spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, etc.
• Experience with test software such as Labview, Agilent Vee, etc.

Responsibilities

• Develop finite element model and theoretic analysis of MEMS devices;
• Work with MEMS foundries for process development and prototype fabrication;
• Set up test system, perform measurements and analyze results for key parameters of MEMS chips;
• Develop MEMS products from the initial conceptual validation stage to the final production validation stage.
