About the role
Introduction to the team: The PFAS team sits within SandboxAQ's Chemical Simulation (ChemSim) group. Our mission is to develop PFAS-lean or PFAS-free substitutes and formulations for semiconductor process and fab materials that meet both performance specifications and environmental and safety requirements in complex semiconductor manufacturing environments. We combine generative ML, physics-based simulation (e.g.
What they're looking for
- PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field, with deep specialization in semiconductor process materials and/or fluorochemistry
- Working knowledge of semiconductor unit processes (e.g. lithography, etch, CMP, cleaning, thermal management) and the performance and EHS specifications that govern process-material qualification
- Demonstrated ability to lead application-driven engagements with external industrial partners and to translate fluently between experimental results and computational/modeling requirements
- Proficiency in Python — sufficient to run and configure computational discovery workflows and interpret their outputs — and comfort collaborating with generative-ML and physics-based simulation teams
- Familiarity with generative molecular design, high-throughput virtual screening, or ML property prediction for molecules and materials
- Direct, hands-on experience with PFAS phase-out or fluorine-free reformulation in a fab or specialty-chemicals setting
