** About the Opportunity
** Northeastern University invites applications for a tenured/tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant, Associate or Full Professor level in the broad area of semiconductor manufacturing. Applicants with semiconductor industrial experience are encouraged to apply.

Appointments will be primarily or fully in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering within the College of Engineering. This position has potential for joint cross-department appointments in the College of Engineering and joint cross-college appointments with the D’Amore-McKim School of Business. The position will primarily be on the Oakland campus — a 135-acre campus located in the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Our location enables collaboration with semiconductor industry partners in Silicon Valley, with academic partners at UC Berkeley, UC San Francisco, and Stanford University, and with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratory.

We are seeking outstanding faculty candidates with research interests and expertise on any of a set of broadly defined areas relevant to semiconductor manufacturing, including but not limited to:

- Nanofabrication and patterning technologies, including EUV lithography, electron beam lithography, and directed self-assembly
- Advanced semiconductor materials processing (e.g., epitaxy, atomic layer deposition, and chemical vapor deposition)- Device and process integration for CMOS, beyond-CMOS, and heterogeneous systems- 3D heterogeneous integration and advanced packaging.

- Metrology and characterization for nanoscale materials and devices
- Semiconductor manufacturing automation, and AI-driven process control and optimization- CMOS-compatible fabrication and integration for electronic, photonic, optoelectronic, and quantum devices
- Sustainability in semiconductor manufacturing, supply chain resilience, and semiconductor entrepreneurship

The appointed faculty will help establish and expand Northeastern University’s research and teaching programs in Oakland, while also benefiting from numerous industries, startup incubators, and venture capital firms in the Bay Area to foster entrepreneurship.

The appointed faculty will be core faculty in the Institute for Nano Systems Innovation (NanoSI), an interdisciplinary institute focused on research, education, and entrepreneurship in semiconductors,  materials, advanced manufacturing, and related fields. NanoSI has 6 core faculty on Northeastern’s Oakland campus and 19 core faculty on the Boston campus. NanoSI’s Oakland faculty share a 6,000 square foot newly-renovated building with offices, laboratories, and collaborative space for graduate student and postdoctoral researchers.

Northeastern’s NanoSI researchers have access to the state-of-the-art nanofabrication facilities at UC Berkeley’s Marvell Nanofabrication Laboratory as well as the Kostas Nanotechnology Laboratory on Northeastern’s Boston campus. Home to numerous startup incubators and venture capital firms, the Bay Area is also one of the best locations for entrepreneurship and Northeastern offers several programs to encourage and assist faculty to commercialize their university inventions.
** Responsibilities
* * Faculty members at Northeastern teach courses at the graduate and undergraduate level; mentor students and postdocs in their area of research; and participate in service to the department, university, and discipline. Candidates are expected to develop independent research programs that attract external funding and generate vigorous research programs cross-cutting the fields of engineering and/or science. Qualified candidates must be prepared to work with global student populations.
