Closes on Monday, October 14, 2024
Job Description
Innovate to solve the world's most important challenges
Join the engineering team at Honeywell that designs, verifies, integrates, and tests complex integrated circuit products that enable systems development for deployment in space. Honeywell’s integrated circuit wafer foundry produces parts for satellites, space probes, defense, and other novel applications. You will develop and characterize wafer process technologies and radiation testing and modeling that enable new product development in support of the organization's business strategies. You will be responsible for understanding several radiation-hardened SOI technologies and methods to achieve and characterize radiation hardening of them. You will work closely with world class hardware development engineers, circuit design engineers, radiation testing tools & facility and personnel.
Key Responsibilities
- Assist in efforts to develop and fully characterize CMOS Wafer Process Technology for radiation hardened applications.
- Develop solutions to enable process control monitor testing and wafer acceptance specifications and criteria.
- Provide Support to Circuit Designers for radiation hardening methods, modeling and characterization.
- Conceive and deploy structures and their test methods for technology development and characterization.
- Develop methods, execute and oversee testing, and model behaviors for technology and circuit hardening.
- Establish and maintain technologies on behalf of Honeywell to support business plans and strategies.
- Characterize radiation effects on devices (e.g., total ionizing dose, neutron displacement damage, dose rate upset, single event effects).
- Prepare test hardware, test plans, documentation.
