Key responsibilities The successful candidate will: Coordinate and lead a subgroup focusing on heterogeneous integration, including topics such as micro-transfer printing, advanced packaging methods, and semiconductor chip-fabrication-related process modules. Drive fundamental methods development (process design, characterization, reliability approaches, and/or toolchain development) and publish results in high-impact venues. Contribute to research group management, including supervision/mentoring of doctoral and master’s students and day-to-day coordination of experimental activities. Support proposal preparation and funding applications in collaboration with senior staff and partners (academia/industry). Potentially participate in teaching related to advanced packaging, heterogeneous integration, and semiconductor fabrication (scope defined based on candidate profile and interests). REQUIREMENTS Applicants are expected to have: A PhD degree (completed by 31st of August, 2026 at the latest) in a relevant field, e.g., electrical engineering, photonics, micro/nanotechnology, semiconductor physics, or materials science. Ability to conduct independent research. Desirable expertise (good to have, not all required) No single applicant is expected to cover everything; however, a strong subset of expertise is needed. Especially valued skills include: Demonstrated ability to publish scientific results, and collaborate in multidisciplinary teams. Hands-on experience in at least some of the following: microfabrication, device/wafer processing, thin-film processes, bonding/assembly, advanced packaging, characterization, and/or reliability testing. III–V chip/device design, fabrication and characterization, including high-speed devices and components such as lasers and photodiodes. HEMTs/FETs, III–V semiconductors, and/or wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductors (e.g., GaN, SiC and related platforms). Micro-transfer printing (µTP) and/or related heterogeneous integration approaches (layer transfer, advanced bonding concepts, precision alignment methods). Advanced packaging/interconnect methods (e.g., fine-pitch assembly, thermal interface development, encapsulation concepts, high-frequency/cryogenic packaging awareness).
