Bewirb dich jetzt als Lead Principal Engineer Technology Concept (f/m/div) bei Infineon Technologies AG in München

Have you heard of Infineon´s ambitious master plan to develop our next automotive microprocessor-microcontroller generation? Do you want to shape the future of smarter, safer and connected cars by solving complex technical challenges? Then we have a great opportunity for you!
As a Lead Principal Engineer for Technology Concepts, you will act as a key driver in our growing Automotive Microcontroller Team to define the technology platforms for our next product generations.

With this position, you will enter our "Technical Ladder" career path. The Technical Ladder is a special career path for those who share innovative ideas, demonstrate comprehensive technical knowledge, show thought leadership, possess problem solving abilities and are able to create business value.

In your new role you will:

• Take responsibility and define the technology platform for our next microcontroller generation based on a standard CMOS FinFET technology beyond 28nm with embedded NVM
• Actively driving the consistency of the technology platform with 3rd party foundation IP ecosystem (standard cells, SRAMs, I/Os, mixed-signal components)
• Owning dedicated automotive quality topics such as failure modes, reliability relevant effects and product lifetime profiles
• Establish the technology platform competitiveness with respect to costs and KPIs by actively engaging in the Silicon Foundry Ecosystem
• Closely cooperate with different teams, such as platform architects, technology experts, product development teams, and central design enablement
• Own and support differentiation strategies within a standard-CMOS technology environment, wrt. availability, safety, security, and automotive quality
• Establish methodologies for a multi-technology platform chipset, incl. SoC-Package-SiP technology concepts
• Consult line and project management incl. clear technical direction setting wrt. to lean development and cost-awareness

You have a clear notion of how innovation contributes to the commercial success of the company, you constantly gain new insights by questioning existing assumptions, and you inspire others for your ideas, explaining even complex issues in a clear and convincing manner. Furthermore, you accept responsibility for decisions and for their positive or negative outcomes, taking on new challenges without knowing the right path to an eventual solution in advance. If you remain aware of the big picture even in complex situations and take decisions despite uncertain circumstances, then you should join our team!

Beyond, you are best equipped for those tasks if you have:

• A degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics or a related field
• About 8 years of experience in concept definition for FinFET based CMOS technologies & products, including embedded NVM
• A technical leadership position and experience in Silicon Foundry engagement and/or technical management is necessary
• A deep understanding of device and interconnects in scaled CMOS technologies including flash-based and alternative eNVM concepts, i.e. power-performance-leakage trade-offs, mixed-signal device & NVM reliability requirements
• The passion to find solutions for the complex technology-design interdependencies of FinFET-based CMOS technologies and digital as well as mixed signal/high-speed and NVM building blocks
• Knowledge in state-of-the art development tools & flows, PDK, design rules, parasitic extractions, device modeling
• The ability to understand product platform requirements and trade-offs from a holistic point of view
• Remarkable technical leadership capabilities combined with good communication skills
• The ability to work in cross-functional teams and a multicultural environment
• Functional Safety & Automotive Quality experience as a plus, e.g. experience with development according to ISO26262 or IEC61508
• Fluent English is a must; German is appreciated
