About this role
Multiphysics Simulation Scientist, Semiconductors Menlo Park, California, United States About Periodic Labs The most important scientific discoveries of our time won't happen in a traditional lab. Periodic Labs is an AI and physical sciences company building state-of-the-art models to accelerate breakthroughs across materials, energy, semiconductors, and beyond. Backed by world-class investors and growing rapidly, we operate at the pace the frontier requires. Our team brings deep expertise, genuine ownership, and an insatiable drive to push the boundaries of what's scientifically possible. About the Role Periodic Labs is developing AI systems that can simulate physical science, verify predictions, and train on the full scientific method. A core part of that mission is building high-fidelity computational models of the processes happening inside our experimental and customer-facing systems, then making those models fast enough to support AI planning, autonomous lab operation, and engineering decision-making. We are looking for a Multiphysics Simulation Scientist to develop, validate, accelerate, and integrate models of semiconductor-relevant physical processes. This role is designed for someone with deep experience in multiphysics simulation, especially in domains such as advanced packaging, wafer mechanics, thin-film deposition, plasma processing, thermal transport, stress and warpage, capillary flow, electromagnetics, or related manufacturing processes. You will work across computational science, AI, automation, process engineering, and customer-facing teams. Your models will help us understand experimental systems, generate training data, guide process decisions, and deliver high-value engineering insights to semiconductor customers. What You'll Do - Build and apply multiphysics models for semiconductor-relevant systems, including thermal, mechanical, fluid, electromagnetic, plasma,
