| Position Description | We are seeking a full-time postdoctoral researcher in mechanics, mechanical engineering, or materials science to join the research group of Professor Joost Vlassak at the Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University. The project focuses on the reliability of complex integrated circuits and assemblies, including state-of-the-art 3DICs, and on how to prevent mechanical failure during fabrication or use of these systems. The work is done in close collaboration with a leading semiconductor manufacturer, and will require both experiments and computational modeling. Knowledge of data driven techniques is a plus. Candidates should have a strong interest in contributing to multidisciplinary teams (mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, materials scientists, and R&D engineers in industry) and are expected to publish scholarly papers in archival journals. They are also expected to take on a mentorship role for graduate students. The position is available beginning in January 2024. The initial appointment will be for one year with a possibility for renewal of a second year depending on performance and availability of funds.
