AI Summary

Senior microwave/plasma systems engineer designs microwave components and experiments for plasma-enhanced CVD diamond growth, modeling plasma behavior and developing diagnostics for manufacturing.

About this role

Diamond Foundry Inc. is solving the thermal limitation at the foundation of today's most exciting tech industries -- AI & cloud compute, electric-car power electronics, and 5G/6G wireless. We have managed to produce the world's first single-crystal diamond wafers and are now on a mission to put a diamond behind every chip. We are the rare unicorn that has grown fast and profitably. We received $515m in funding and are executing a multi-$B expansion plan for one of the greenest forms of tech manufacturing: converting greenhouse gas into diamond wafers using zero-emission energy.

Diamond Foundry is seeking an individual with strong problem solving skills who will apply physics and engineering principles in the design of new equipment used for diamond growth. A successful candidate likely has prior experience with semiconductor equipment design or experience with plasma systems.

Responsibilities

Design new microwave components and systems used for plasma enhanced CVD reactors and other tools used in the production of CVD diamond

Model the plasma and microwave behavior of reactor components in order to improve reactor designs and understanding

Develop diagnostics for reactor and plasma monitoring and control, implementing diagnostics in manufacturing

Architect and perform experiments to understand hardware impacts to plasma and diamond growth, specifically as it relates to microwave sources and components

Requirements

At least 5 or more years of industry experience

PhD in engineering or applied physics and expertise in high-power, microwave frequency systems

Hands-on experience with RF/microwave equipment used in the test of microwave components and sources (VNAs, signal generators, diodes, etc.)

Experience with high vacuum systems and plasma based devices

Proficiency in a full-wave electromagnetic design tool (HFSS, CST MWS, or COMSOL) and proficiency with other circuit design/layout tools.
