Hopefully this will check most, if not all, of the boxes in your criteria for taking the first step in the hiring process.

Here's what we know for this Direct-Hire position:

KEYS FOR SUCCESS:

• 2-3 years with Bayesian statistics, probabilistic programming, graphical models, Bayesian networks, Bayesian inference, causal networks
• C#, C++, R, Python, Matlab
• Experience with machine learning, Python, Tensorflow
• PhD Preferred

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR THIS POSITION:

We have always had a close relationship with physics and data. Our optical and electron beam inspection and measurement tools use cutting edge physics models, both for hardware design and as part of their algorithms. AI, including several traditional machine learning techniques and deep learning are routinely used to process this data to meet application requirements.

The AI & Modeling Center of Excellence, centered in our R&D facility (Ann Arbor, MI), was setup with the mission of advancing our traditional strengths in physics and data and providing implementation solutions for multiple Inspection and Metrology products targeted at the semiconductor manufacturing industry.

As a part of this group, you will be part of a world class team of physicists, HPC system designers, machine learning and application engineers who build cutting edge solutions for modeling complex imaging techniques and semiconductor processes. You will also work with a data scientists and AI infrastructure engineers whose mission is to build and scale machine learning based solutions for our semiconductor customers.

We are looking for engineers in a few different fields. If you are passionate about Physics Modeling, High Performance Computing - HPC (including GPU), ML, Data, or Cloud technologies – this is the place for you!
